No, you can't have it!

I work at a restaurant, and I hate hate hate opening on Saturday mornings, mainly because I close Friday nights as well, but that's another story.

Anyway, we stop serving breakfast at 10:30, meaning that you can't order anything off of the breakfast menu...period.

So, the phone rings:

Me: Satan's Eatery, can I help you?
SC: Hi, I'd like to call in an order for pick up.
Me: Okay *readies fingers over the register"
SC: I'd like an egg plate, eggs hard fri-
Me: Oh, ma'am, sorry, but we stop serving breakfast at 10:30 every morning.
SC: What time is it now?
Me: Almost 11:00.
SC: Okay, well, I'd like the egg plate, eggs hard fried, a side of ba-
Me: Ma'am, we stop serving breakfast at 10:30, it's now 11:00.
SC: I know, that's why I'm calling in the order.
Me: Ma'am, we don't take breakfast orders past 10:30 whether the customer is eating here or calling in the order.
SC: So, you're telling me that I can't order breakfast?
Me: In summary, yes.
SC: *click*

Is it really that hard?

Yes, yes it really it that hard for SC's to understanding closing times.

My brain hurts from trying to figure out her logic. She knows you stop serving breakfast at 10:30, she heard this twice, but for some reason, she thought that only applied to those people who are IN the restaurant and not those who are placing pick-up orders. Did she think that you'd do it because no one in the restaurant would SEE the food she has in her bag to KNOW it was breakfast?

*Ouch* my head hurts.

I can't follow the logic, either...

Probably the same logic that gets people to show up at 9:59 PM for a sit-down dinner at a place that closes at 10:00...
