You want some abuse with that?

So, now we know what they really think — and it's not whether you want fries with your order.

A page purporting to be for Invercargill McDonald's staff, on the social networking site Bebo, has McDonald's bosses concerned.

The site features people claiming to be past and present staff members of the Dee St McDonald's restaurant, and under a blog heading of "Drive thru rules" , has some blunt lessons in drive-through etiquette.

Customers are told to "get off ur .., phone", "speak bloody english", "don't mummble" and "don't let the ... kids place the order".

It also asks drivers to control their drunken passengers. "plz tell them 2 shut th ... up! we dont want to hear their drunkn ramblings" .

Invercargill McDonald's owner Trevor Rogan, who was unaware of the site when approached by The Southland Times said he was concerned about the content on the site.

However, neither he nor McDonald's national headquarters would be trying to shut down the site, saying it was "freedom of speech".

Mr Rogan's concerns centred on the language used, the official McDonald's logo being used on the site, and the 20 drive-through rules.

"They (the rules) certainly don't reflect (the opinion of) McDonald's or myself. I guess it's a bit frustrating for the crew at times, but that's the nature of the business ... when you are running a 24-hour, seven-days-a-week business you tend to cop a bit and it's mainly alcohol-related, I would imagine." However, it was unnecessary for staff to vent their frustrations in such a way, he said. "We have an open-door policy; they can come and talk to us any time." McDonald's national communications manager Kate Porter said McDonald's would be keeping an eye on the site, which they did with several sites featuring McDonald's.

Technology commentator David Farrar, of Wellington, said McDonald's could ask the site's makers to remove its logos and intellectual property, but not order it to be removed in New Zealand, he said.

He suggested the best tact for McDonald's would be to not over-react.
