OH, how I thought the SCs would just disappear...
How wrong I was. To briefly explain my hiatus from telling horrible stories, I actually had no job for a while. My boss decided that because I went to France (for school), somehow that equated my lack of desire to keep my job. So, while I was gone, I was put on suspension....
Anyways, I was yelled at by my manager upon returning, and then promptly given my job back.
I'd like to think that's a good thing...but then the SCs start rolling in full-force.
So...more stories from the Pit of Despair.
Tell me why this doesn't sound quite right...
SL: Stupid Lady
Me: *sigh* Still here, still listening to people spout nothing but stupid
SL: I would like this breakfast, but with three strips of this.
Me: Bacon? (Logical guess, right? If you're nodding, then you are WRONG)
SL: No, I want this!!!! *points to glossy photo of sausage links*
Me: You mean you would like three links of sausage?
SL: NO, I want three STRIPS of sausage!
Me:
SL: You know what I mean right?
Me: You want three pieces of sausage and no bacon, is what you mean. I think you mean sausage links, not strips.
SL: I meant strips.
Me:...Usually that's a term reserved for bacon, ma'am.
SL: Well, I call them strips of sausage. Because they aren't really links.
Me: *sigh*
Not just a delicious breakfast meat...but also an appetizer!!!
Warning: This post is also sausage-centric. It was a weird, sausage filled week.
SLG: Sausage loving guy
Me: Still confused over the use of "strip" to describe a piece of sausage.
Me: Would you care for anything to drink while you're looking at the menu? Maybe an iced tea, or pepsi or -
SLG: I would like 6 sausages to start.
Me: *obviously puzzled* As an appetizer?
SLG: Yes, as an appetizer. And also a pepsi.
Me: Erm...okay.
*walks away to get his drink and his delicious sausage-y prequel to his meal, then returns to the table to deliver sausage + pepsi*
Me: Were you ready to order your meal as well?
SLG: Yes. *proceeds to order HUGE dinner meal*
Me: Anything else for you right now?
SLG: I would also like more sausage please. And a side of ranch.
Me: *visible cringe* 6 more sausages?
SLG: Yes, please.
Me: Okay...as an appetizer again?
SLG: Yes.
Me: Okay....(?)
Basically, SLG ate 12 sausage l - oh! Excuse me, I meant sausage strips- by his lonesome. Kind of disgusting, when you think about it. However, he also consumed 4 pieces of salmon, some rice, and veggies...and a salad. Gross. I really hope he wasn't putting the sausages on his salad.
Okay, I have officially typed "sausage" about 20 times too many in this post....I think my quota is up.
