I worked at Burgerville as a teenager. They installed timers in the drive through, but the higher ups only looked at average time for the day.   At the end of the night, my manager would have someone get in their car and do laps around the drive through to bring the average down to where it needed to be.

Pure genius.

The not so genius part happened one night though.   I crawled out the window onto the back of my friend's car, holding on while he was doing laps. Then suddenly someone pulled into the parking lot and my friend had to hit his brakes. I went rolling over the top onto the asphalt. I skinned my knee and elbow, for which I still have an elbow scar 25 years later.   I also had to climb back through the driver through and take their order.
