Hardee's Restaurants
Reviews and Complaints

I think everyone that says these things A. no nothing about marketing and B. didn't listen or watch the commercial C. knows absolutely nothing about a passion for food, freedom of expression, and symbolism. You all are missing the point. First you would've had to read Padma's book to understand the context of which the commercial used it. Secondly, you would have to understand that for food lovers every where (especially chefs) eating great food is a very sensual experience. They derive the same pleasure from the experience of tastes as lovers do foreplay.
It's not porn people! Apparently, nobody who posts these comments have ever seen porn, even soft core porn. I'm a woman, and I am not offended by this commercial because I used to work in marketing for a few years. What people find offensive is usually because they are uneducated and do not see the whole picture. Sometimes that is the fault of the advertising/networks. Mostly because of time constraints, etc. things tend to get lost in translation. I wonder if everyone who complains is also calling the axe company, burger king, tampon companies, penis enhancement agencies, etc. It's only offensive if you are easy to offend. Try talking to your children instead of shielding them from the f***ing world. In the long run you are doing more harm than good by not preparing them for what is truly out there.

Lets get the prudes out of our lives

lets get the porn off main stream tv

This commercial belongs in a porn movie not on telivison where children of all ages see it and imitate what they see. I'm very offended by it and it do turn it off and yes I've complained to Hardee's.

Loosen the bone Wilma.
Your TV has buttons on it, if you don't like what you see PUSH ONE.

Restaurant #222
We ordered two sausage biscuit and added cheese. Cheese was not added. They handed us two slices of cheese so we could put it on them.
We ordered two ham Frisco sandwiches and received one slice of ham on sandwiches (see attached photo for verification)
The service from employee and Michelle and manager Rebecca was "sorry" and that was it.
We were treated rudely and the service was very unsatisfactory. I will not recomment anyone to visit Northhill Hardees in Minot North Dakota

Here is a link ( if it works )... http://www.hardees.com/contact/contact_form I STRONGLY encourage everyone to as they say "drop them a line" and tell them what you think about the commercial. If enough people comment to them directly, eventually it will get to the right person. Maybe even send them "a line" every day until you get the right response. You could even request to speak with the person in charge of the advertising.

I am right with you all who feel hardee's ads are just wrong. what the heck does eating a hamburger
have to do with this sort of ad. Porno is right. I will never eat there either, and I plan to have everyone
I can to write in. Anyone know who we can complain to, to actually get them off the air?

What does it say about their food when they have to resort to porn-like commercials to sell food? And shame on American Idol for airing this commercial with so many kids watching. Will never eat there again.

THATS DISGUSTING! I SAY WE FIND OUT WHO MADE THIS AD AND BURN THEIR HOUSE DOWN! THEN WE SHOULD CUT OUT OUR CHILDREN'S EYES SO THEY CAN NEVER SEE SUCH TRASH AGAIN!

THAT'LL TEACH EM!

I agree! I refuse to encourage such profane marketing tactics and will no longer purchase any Hardee`s product. Its almost to the point where it is indecent to even allow our children to watch a commercial. America wake up! We have the power to put and end to such repulsive advertising.

you know hardees is the worst place to work at i have been their almost 2years with no raise a new kid just started 3weeks ago and got a 25cent raise some one quit and came back wow! already making 35cent more some how im not surprised i and when i asked my boss how could this be she told me she only gives raises to people that deserve them hello no call ins, on time, and bust my butt what is that?its just a case of favoritism going on besides the boss calling her employees stupid and yelling at them isnt that against are human rights ill be going to corporate letts see what they say...so my point to all readers is that hardees is the worst place to work

idiots

That's a good point, Jason. I hadn't considered that.

My opinion is she should get a different job. If she's going to be crying about (40*.75) 30 dollars a week she should have the motivation to get a job in the field she's studying for. 8 years is more than enough for fast food. Move on. Unless, of course, she's trying to get into the corporate side of Hardee's, which it sounds like she might be. If that's the case, she's got to talk to some higher ups. But she's also got to realize that if you want to move up in the corporate world you can't do the same thing for 8 years and call your parents crying when something you don't like happens. Your parents shouldn't be burdened with having to stick up for you your whole life.

I agree with Jason on one thing, if the daughter is unhappy she should be talking to her managers about it in person and not by writing a letter. If nothing is done than she should take it to headquarters by a phone call to get a better response.

"Even a fool is considered wise if he holds his tongue”

You should apply that saying to yourself and ignore the troll, he is craving attention.

Jason did I make any spelling mistakes here?

I think he is talking about the first sentence. Should it not be. Jason, listen kid, You need to grow up. ? I don't know ask the grammar "expert". However I would not be surprised if you were infact Jason saying bad things about yourself just to get attention. Anyways who cares. If you are not him and bashing yourself to get attention just ignore him he is a troll.

Jason,

You are a looser...

Hiding behind a computer screen...

She may need her "mommy" but at least she has a mommy to fight for her, unlike you who was born of ###...

and you have no brains, just for the record.. here is a list of your brilliant spelling abilities... here are all the words you spelled WRONG:

daugher (should be daughter)
obvioulsy (Should be obviously)
prastice (Should be practice)
literly (Should be literally)

"Even a fool is considered wise if he holds his tongue”

Go ahead and show me a grammar mistake.

Jason. Listen kid. You need to grow up. Stop hiding behind your keyboard and monitor and slandering the general public for trying to make other consumers aware of potential scams, fraud, and so on. While you're at it, a spelling and grammar lesson may not hurt, unless you just haven't made it through middle school yet, then your sub-par conversation skills would be totally acceptable and understandable. Instead of commenting on everyone elses misfortune, spend your time with your nose in an English book, or a dictionary, and learn what a adjective is, or better yet, how to spell adjective. And while you're at it, go slander your friends on Myspace or Twitter, if you have any friends that is...Best of luck in your life long endeavors of putting people down . Maybe one day one of your targets will meet up with you on the street, and without the protection of your firewall and Kaspersky Antivirus, we can all watch you turn and run with your tail between your legs.

Lose weight.

i went through the drive-through at the hardees on hwy 24 in roseboro, n.c. waited for our food for 15 minutes . The drive-thru cashier picked up the order and stood there holding it ipushed the window open and asked if thatwas my food order, then she walked by to get our cold fries came to the window said have a nice night you ###ing ### as i was pulling off. I stopped my car went back to the window and asked what her ###ing problem was, she wouldnt respond. today is nov. 10 2008

Was she black?

Lol! I know the Hardee's in Radcliff, on Knox Blvd. Once we ordered meals there. It took them over 6 minutes (there is actually a clock you can watch!) and we got 23 french fries with our order. It was supposed to be a go large.

I'm glad they at least do breakfast right, because dayam. Heh.

Here is what I think...I worked at Steak n Shake and the customer is not always right. There were people trying to scam them all the time. Oh my eggs weren't cooked the way I asked...they'd return their damn plate twenty times until they got it for free. Yes I'm sure this person was rude, but there are a lot of rude people in the world. That's when you speak to a Manager. Oh wait...don't they have a complaint line or something like every other place? Wouldn't it be better to take it up with them instead of posting it all over the internet? Hmm...no guess not because that wouldn't be the more "grown-up" thing to do.

Also half these people replying to him and telling him to get a life are probably him on another account. He admitted in one letter that he purposely makes spelling and grammar mistakes to attract trolls to poke fun of him. I am sure(if you are not one of his other identies) that he is making fun of your responses.

Normally I would side with the person posting the complaint and not with Jason. However did appear sort of rude in this letter. That saying "The customer is always right" is outdated if they act like her.

No offence dciulla, but you are no better than him by calling him an idiot and stooping to his level. Here is an idea, we all know he is a troll so ignore him.

Jason you are an idiot...

Why do you slander people and stick up for those that are RUDE? What ever happen to the customer is always right..

Oh I forgot, your too busy pulling up your pants and shinning your stupid gold tooth.

Lets not talk about spelling, I have read your post... PLEASE!

Looks like you really showed them. They will be out of business before you know it.

Hardees advertisement featuring the young woman exposing her
breasts and other body parts is disgusting to say the least.
What next------ a young hunk in skivvies--- licking his arms and legs!
Don't you people know sex doesn't sell food! Getting good food in a
clean restaurant served by a courteous person sells food!

I was in hardees nov ! placing a order i could see in the back where a young man was working making the breakfast sandwish without plastic gloves on and he scratched his nose and went back to making the sandwich this was in mayfield ky the manager there is a joke

Some people need to understand that working in a fast food restaurant can be quite difficult specially dealing with unpleasant costumers. I am a young man at the age of 23, i visit hardees just about every day in thomasville, ga. Also i am a resident of Thomasville, GA. From what i have observe from visiting hardees so much, its not always the employee or manager who has the problem its the customer. Sad to say but it is true. Hardees of Thomasville, Ga has some very nice an pleasant employees and managers. I must say the managers at this store are doing a very excellent job of taking care their customer when a problem arrives. So before you judge someone, think!
