Not For Me
Don't know if it's a good thing that I've never used the drive-thru in any fast food place since we moved to the US about 8 years ago. Yesterday I tried it out for the first time at Arby's since it was raining and I had to get some lunch at around 3:30 for the pharmacist I worked with and for myself. It was bad.... The paper bag just torn open by itself while I was trying to hold it so that the drive-thru guy could put some ketchup into the bag (since he forgot that). Of course, the food ended up on the wet floor and the Arby's people were nice enough to refix my order. Maybe I should start learning how to hold a paper bag the correct way at a drive-thru window... (that was embarassing >.<)

Hi Daisy
I've arrived here via Postcrossing (got your card today) and I liked just to say "hello". I find your post interesting. Drive-thru is not for me either. I've been recentely almost 7 months in the USA (San Diego, California) and I never used a drive-thru. I don't see the fun of it. I'm amazed how many kinds of drive-thrus there are in the USA. Even a drive-thru ATM!
Here in Portugal there are already some drive-thrus, especially from the American businesses, such as McDonalds.
Cheers, Francisco.

Hi, Francisco--You probably won't believe this but there are actually drive-thru windows in some funeral homes and there's that drive-thru immunization (people just stick their arms out of the car window to get their flu shot--and I've given this kind of shots before)!!
