Brownsville Trip - Not all Big Macs are created equal

My wife and I went to visit my family in Brownsville, Texas over the 4th of July weekend. We stopped in Raymondville for dinner on the drive down. There is a convenient McDonald's attached to a gas station (but unlike the more modern buildings that are gas stations with a McDonald's attached, this is really a McDonald's with a gas station stuck on the end).

We got our order and sat down, and Diana discovered that her Big Mac was mis-assembled. (See photo!) She wasn't sure whether or not she should send it back (after all, the parts were all there... just in the wrong order). I offered to take it back for her, and she let me. I showed the employee what was wrong and asked if we could get a new one. He turned around and had a new one made. He handed me a fresh Big Mac (yes, I witnessed that it was a new one) and I returned to my table. Diana opened it and discovered the new burger was made exactly the same way!

This time she went to the counter, and showed the problem to a diffferent employee. He was mortified (or at least acted mortified for our sake). The new, third, burger was assembled well. In fact, it was the best looking Big Mac I remember seeing. In fact, it almost looked like the photo of a Big Mac you see on the ads. Here you can see my wife enjoying her good Big Mac.
