    Can I get <other stores food>?

    I wish I had an appropriate gif for my facial expression. I was on grill, my TL on window.

    TL: Hi what can i get for you
    SC: Do you guys have chili cheese fries?
    TL: I'm sorry we don't.
    SC: uuhhhhhhhhhhhhh
    Me: MY BRAINZ ARE HURTING (i cannot stand that noise anymore)
    TL: Shut up
    SC: Then can I get an order of fries (pause) with chili and cheese...?
    TL: Wha-- We don't have chili.
    SC: Oh okay then nevermind. *drives off*

    I think I already posted about the one who walked in during lobby hours, ordered food from another restaurant, then when I told her we didn't carry that she (straight faced) asked me where she was.

    sure, you can get that; just hop your happy ass on over to <that store> and they'll get it for you.

    seriously, READ THE DAMN MENU: don't see your item there? YOU'RE AT THE WRONG STORE!
    look! it's ghengis khan!
    Sorry, but while I can do many things, extracting heads from anuses isn't one of them. (so sayeth the irv)

        Back in my days of working fast food, I used to tell people yes and then tell them where to go get it.

        Me: Welcome to BK. how can I serve you today?
        SC: Can I get a Big Mac?
        Me: Sure! Just go down the street to McD's for that. Is there anything else I can help you with?

        What I loved the most about this was to see the embarrassed look on their faces when they'd pull up to the window after ordering what was on our menu.

          We've had people order stuff from, Burger King, White Castle, Mc Donalds, and Dairy Queen before. Does the sign above the door say any of those? No. Then go to those places if you want those things.

            It's simply dumbfounding how people can think their in a completely different place. Happens in supermarkets also.

              It's even more hilarious how some people think rewording what they want will magically make it appear on a restaurant's menu.

                When I worked at "regional burger place w/ really yummy burgers", we'd always get orders for Big Macs & Whoppers. The Whopper was easy to deal with, just punch in a 1/4 Lb. Colossal. The Big Mac, we had no substitution for....but McDs was just across the street.

                  For shame! If you really cared about customer service, you'd run over to the other store and get it for them.

                    I have, occasionally, had a brain burp and ordered a McD breakfast at BK - or vice versa.

                      I think the problem is that to the average customer, they're all the same....a burger is a burger, chicken is chicken, coke and pepsi are just cola, etc...This also explains why they don't know the difference between Mac and PC, or PS and Xbox, etc....

                        On occasion I have made the mistake of trying to order a Big Mac at Burger King, etc. However it is very rare. Both chains usually have their logo, which look nothing alike in very prominent places at all locations, from inside, the drive thru, the building and the employees. The only exceptions are some location in more historic areas, where laws may prevent giant color logos outside the building, so it may be more plain text.

                          And give it to them for free, to compensate them for their inconvenience!

                          Oh yeah, the entertainment value of THAT conversation never wears thin, does it?

                              I had a two-hundred-year old man walk into the Grease Factory and order breakfast at 1:30 PM. The look on his face when I told him that breakfast was over and we were well into lunch was heartbreaking. I kept wanting to buy him a puppy.

                              Taking another swing at it, he ordered a Whopper. Um...Burger King was across the street. We dun' do them.

                              He tried a few other restaurants more or less at random before giving up. He never did figure out where he was, despite the fact that the very chairs were shaped like our logo, which screamed at him from every window...
