Went down the hall to my favorite sub place for lunch this afternoon. There was a woman at the counter, but standing off to the side like she had just ordered so I made my way toward the register, only to be cut off by said woman. Oh well.
Woman then proceeds to rattle off her order for three subs, each requiring either add-ons or things to be left off. In particular she dictated that the lettuce and tomatoes be taken off her cheese steak sub and put in a separate bag, because when she got home she planned to warm up the cheese steak in the microwave.
So as I'm standing there waiting, listening to the radio play "If I Said You had A Beautiful Body, Would You Hold It Against Me?" and watching my lunch break slowly ebb away, woman turns to me, sees my nametag and my company polo shirt and says "Oh, I guess you're on your break. I should have let you go first. Kahilk kahilk kahilk!."
Woman then pays for her $2o order....with a $100 bill, requiring the cashier to leave the register and head to the back for more change.
Finally her subs are made and I get my turn to order. Halfway through my order woman barges in front of me and screams at the cashier "You put tomatoes on the cheesesteak! I asked you to leave them off!" Of course she then needs to have a new sub made because it's simply asking too much to pick off a few tomatoes even though the only reason you're doing it is to nuke the sandwich before you eat it.
By the time I finally got my food and got back to the breakroom, I had 5 minutes left in my lunch break, so I had to throw my bag of food in the fridge and eat it at my next break.
I love this sub shop's sandwiches and fries but I may have to stop going there on my lunch breaks. It seems every so often, either because there are difficult customers ahead of me or because they're running shorthanded, I end up with no time to eat.
