This actually happened to a couple monthes ago but since i was having a major Deja vu day to day i felt the need to post.
Ok this happened back when i was working mornings and there for lunch rush. So at lunch rush i would work counter because people liked me. This day was kind of busy... six people already waiting for food, six or seven behind the SC of the story and about 5 people in drive thru with god only knows how many waiting. So my manager L was out front helping a someone i will call Billy just because i cant remember who it was fill orders to get them out fast.
So our SC walks in with a little girl who will have one line because well shes a little girl and it was too busy for me to care about what she does.
YI- Ye Olde Idiot
PK- possible kindergartener
Me- duh
L- manager, scary tall manager woman
Me- Hi, Welcome to JIB. How can I help you today?
YI- What do you want?
PK- ummmmmmm a three!!! (bye bye little girl)
YI- I want three number threes with cokes
Me- (internal- OH THANK YOU GOD ITS EASY)
Me- ohhh kay, that'll be $xx.xx, *hands over three medium cups* would you like that for here or to go?
YI- Whats this? *Points to the cups*
Me- uh your medium drinks sir? (how can you not know that?)
YI- I said three medium cokes.
Me- I know. The soda station is right over there. Did you want to eat here or would you like your meal to go?
YI- *shoves the cups towards me.* I said three medium cokes.
Me- I know sir. Those are medium cups, you take them over to the soda station and fill them. Now for here or to go. *pushes the cups back to him*
YI- *shoves them back (what is this? a game of 'Hot Potatoe'? I am so not being paid to play this this guy)* I want three medium cokes.
Me- Sir I don't know of any fastfood resturant chain around here with a walk in lobby that prepares drinks for you. I can't fill them for you, you have to fill them yourself. *i hand the cups over and cast a look of appology to my regulars stuck behind him* Now would you like to eat here or leave?
YI- *Hands the cups back* I WANT THREE MEDIUM COKES!
Me- *hands the cups over yet again* Sir, as you can see we are very busy right now. Even if i could fill your drinks for you (which there is no way in hell i would do now- ME THINKING AGAIN) I CAN NOT DO SO. I can't leave the counter. Now please sir, would like this to go or not? i need to finish the order
YI- *THROWS THE CUPS IN MY FACE AND THEN YELLS VERY LOUDLY* I WANT THREE @%*$^#! MEDIUM COKES!!!!! and gives me this look i don't even want to deciefer and clenches his fists and moves way to close for my liking at this point.
Now i only have three thoughts in my head 1) i really dont want to explain to the little girl why grand pa's arm is bent all funny and why hes using such weird words (i know about 5 different ways to break a mans arm) 2) i really don't want to explain this situation to the cops (when im explaining why i broke a mans arm and then continued to take orders) and 3) I REALLY dont want to explain to L how i know how to break a mans arm, like i didnt want to explain how i know how to jimmy the 20's slot, and why the police are in the resteraunt.
Luckly i dindt have to preform any of these acts ( those i really really wish i got to do that arm breaking thing) because L appeared behind me, having heard the man yelling and whispered this
L- Slice, whats the matter here.
Me- *turn around and give her a look i only gave her once when i was about to cry because three guys where harrassing me, i know the look and perform only in this situations, when if i dont get help soon, someone is going to be crying, mostly me but them too* This man is upset that i gave him cups instead of the drinks them selves.
L- *looks at the man, then the crowd behind him then the cups* Whats the drink? (i almost broke her arm)
Me- um cokes....
L- *grabs the cokes* I'll fill them *gives me a wink i dont understand* Ring him up to go.
Me- *does what was told but pissed at manager*
I fill the next seven orders in half the time it took the SC to yell at me and i glance out od the corner of my eye and see why L did that.
She fills the sodas, and then leaves them next to fry station. The hot fry station. So they will get warm and flat. She hands over the food and the WARM FLAT drinks and tells the man if he ever sets foot on out property again he will be arrested for tresspassing and harrassment.
The look on his face as he took the first sip as he was leaving was priceless.
