One of my sons is a cop, another has a small, family run take out food place. When the food guy noticed that an unusual number of uniformed officers were ordering meals, he asked one if they were friends of his brother. The sad answer was that most did not personally know him, but the police internal notice board listed my cop son as part owner of the take-out. They felt the food would be spit free, and safe to eat when they were in uniform. Some that were area residents stopped in off duty as well. But- what have we become, that officers can not trust the safety of their meals ? ?
Pauline Larson That’s said that there fellow officers have made it so hard for even the good cops that truly want to help people have to deal with this abuse. I am someone who doesn’t feel comfortable around cops because You never know when one will be power tripping but I have known some very kind coos that would be really nice to me and other kids in my community when I was a child, and it makes me very said that most children that were born after me are afraid of cops or hate cops because what a few of the bad ones did. The police force really needs to do better with getting rid of the bad cops so that the good ones can be treated with the respect the deserve.
1) But if you catch someone screwing with your food....you should be able to beat them senselees. 2) If you want $15 an hour, don't let a $10 order kick your ass...just saying.
It’s so weird that it took three seasons for her to be considered part of the main cast of Parks and Rec. And six seasons for her to be added to the credits!
@@shellanon4212 Because, if you honestly hate something the taste can linger and it ruins the food. Plus, it's not like she had already had them make the food, have it in her hand and go "Oh, sorry, I didn't want pickles".
I can definitely see that. I remember another of her comedic routines where she talks about pulling up next to a white couple at a stoplight while she's listening to music, and they assume she's listening to rap only to have her roll down the window and sing along with the opera music that's playing. On a side note, I can certainly appreciate classical and opera music, though I will say my own singing voice leaves a great deal to be desired, such as quality.
Given the time this came out she did good but what makes up for it is her animated delivery and the physical comedy in her face. I'm glad somebody saw that potential in Retta and put her on!
@@kayholand_ McDonald's is a franchise which means national sales do not necessarily apply to them. (For example. My local McDonald's has free coffee Wednesday mornings for seniors. The one in a neighboring town does not but they have a "happy hour" where the food gets a discount price.) When she said they weren't a participating McDonald's she was referring to the question of "WHY wasn't that lady being friendly". Basically the counter lady told her that she didn't HAVE to be friendly.
This is Classic Retta. She's hilarious! And she's only gotten better and more hilarious. She's so subtle and matter of fact with her delivery. I love her!
The McDonald's....the ice cream machine is always broken, the employees are usually a bit attitudinal, and half the time someone is hollering because they just got fired. 🙄
You are MEANT for that stage you Beautiful Black Queen! From stage presence to timing & everything in between, you have it all! Thank you for making my day!
Lions also sleep between 16 to 20 hours a day normally and last about 10 seconds apparently. Had to check out some lion facts after watching this lol. Still props to them for that 216 times thing haha
I remember when Comedy Central would play this a fair amount and I made sure to catch it one time so I could put it on a cassette tape. She's geuninely comes so far and is still funny. I'm so so happy for her success. This entire half hour is pretty great. Maybe you should upload it @comedy central stand up
Apparently I have been living under a rock. I had never heard of Retta. She is very smooth and excellent with her comedy. I am now her number one fan. Thanks for sharing!!!
I work at a McDonald's, and I've checked with other fast food chains too-- you want to get back at an employee like that but not cause a scene at the time (because we will totally blow you off as soon as you leave if you do)? If they had their name tag on that day, remember their name. Take the survey on the receipt. Mention them in the comments section of the survey, by name if possible. Never go to that place again, or at least long enough that they might forget you. I know for my chain and at least one other, those comments from the surveys get posted in our break room for EVERYONE to read, and their manager will talk to them.
She said men go twice then slide into a coma. That's only if your lucky lol. The braggers can't handle their business. It's the quiet guys that turn knees into jelly lol. Good luck getting to the bathroom to clean up without stumbling 😋

“So needless to say, I was a bit perturbed.”
She has a great voice. She should narrate books or something.

She should have her own tv show!

People are so nasty to the point that causing someone harm in their food is pay back. Humans are horrible!

“I don’t mess with people who touch my food.”
that is a very wise rule
I've worked so many food service jobs, I wish more people would learn that bullshit.
I've been a chef for 30 years. A lot of people don't follow that rule. They are lucky I am a a professional.
Especially if its out of eye contact

She was my good friend in high school and she was always funny. Go girl.
This is nice
That’s so cool!
She's not a "girl."
Very cool!
@@Armistead_MacSkye it’s just a saying, a positive one too, don’t be extra
I love that she actually brought the soap 😂. She’s got a good delivery
The joke was good. But if every guest gets a new soap then that is not small. Since it will be thrown away after a day or two.
Fraz Ahmad some hotels recycle them for people in need
Those the lil ass bar that they give sometimes at shelters..
Stolen joke
"actually" --- groan --- she didn't "actually" bring the f*cking soap, she brought the soap.
"I don't mess with people who touch my food." 😂😂
💀💀💀
I felt that in my soul. 😂
I be trying to tell my friends... Please be NICE
SumoCato lol i need everyone to learn this.😂
Fact
She's beautiful. Her voice is soothing.
I know right?!?!
Ikr she's so pretty
This comment is so lovely, I was thinking the same thing. Her outfit fits her so well too 😍
Very much so....could have a person really reconsidering there sworn stout opinion.....🤣
She reminds me of my mum.
"What is up with this stank ass trick?!" is the theme for 2021
Lol
If you watch it with subtitles it's snake ass chair 🪑
Right???? 🤣🤣🤣 ALL the way LIVE!
"Girl, imma start seeing Tony...you know the tiger". "I hear he's grrrrrreat"!! LMBO
I almost spit out my drink when she said grrrreat!
When you're so uptight you gotta censor acronyms.
So sophisticated and hilarious. And the jokes weren’t low-brow. Show ‘em how its done Retta
C-light exactly
C-light her vocabulary and knowledge is everything
Tru
FACTS!!!
I like that too, she doesn't have to be loud, ghetto and raunchy to get her jokes out

“Why the drama it’s just pickles” 💀
Then why didn,t she just remove her own?
Because she asked them to do it.
I was quoting her because it’s funny

No need to bug a poor min. wage worker about a lousey pickle. Anything that small you can just remove .

Me neither. I thought she was just a comedic actor.
Hope they keep making good girls. Such a dope show. No pun intended😂
Same..

You r hilarious
Retta: hold my soap
I snorted loudly at this.
Underrated comment ever
It was always a f*cking lie to stop us from seeing and appreciating good female comedians.
I had no idea she was this witty in real life. She was kind of playing her real self in Parks and Rec. Treat yoself, guurl!!
She's great in Good girls (Netflix) too
Lol thats how I found her Donna was hilarious!
Alle Alle I love that show!!
Dude, I've watched hardly any parks and rec and I didn't recognize her, now I gotta watch it
I've never seen parks n rec..had no idea who this hilarious woman was..but I'll be watching out for her now👍😉
Given the time this came out she did good but what makes up for it is her animated delivery and the physical comedy in her face. I'm glad somebody saw that potential in Retta and put her on!
Why is this the only comedy skit I can find of her? She's the funniest 😂
THIS is a funny woman. No bs persona like everyone else. just telling it like it is while keeping it light and playful
How is this the first time I’m hearing this woman? She’s hilarious! Rather nice on the eyes, as well.
Marvel Disneyfan watch parks and recreation
That was sweet to say. As a full figured woman myself, we don’t get many compliments. She is pretty.
Yes she is pretty and she is in good girls too
I know her from Good Girls, but she’s also in To The Bone on Netflix

Not messing with someone who touches your food is one of the secrets of life.

That melanin. 😍😍
Talking only about Black people's skin and melanin as non-Black people is weird and dehumanizing.
