Why is it so frustrating just ordering something at sandwich a or donut joint? I had this brief exchange today:
Me: #6. [omelette on a croissant with coffee]
DD employee #1:
Me: #6….exactly as it is.
DD employee #2: any coffee?
If I order a #6, I shouldn’t have to explain anything except the size and contents of my coffee (not the existence of said coffee) plus . Same with Subways/Blimpies… some executive chef at Subway headquarters put together these menu items with a certain set of ingredients. When I order one, I am trusting their judgement, and the employee should trust mine that the sandwich is what I want. All the extra ingredients are right in front of me behind glass- I know they’re there and available to me if I want them!
On a more amusing note, DD had an employee whose name is both religious and patriotic: Jesusa
