That's not what I ordered!

[Whiskey]

I dont know if this is SC or Brain Burps. She wasn't rude it just kind of.. blew me away.

Customer comes through drive and orders:

2 hamburgers
1 Spicy chicken sandwich
2 small fries
1 cheese cake
1 medium soda

Something like 15$. I was in a really good mood last night, probably delirium from lack of sleep, so I turned it into

2 hamburgers
small #11 (spicy chicken) with small fries and medium coke
1 small fry
1 cheesecake

And it comes to like 13$ Well, this was not satisfactory. She whined "I didnt want the combo!!!!!"

Okay so you want 2 hamburgers, 1 Spicy chicken sandwich, 2 small fries, 1 medium soda, and 1 cheese cake?

"Yeah!"

Alright, sure. The customer is always right, after all.

Oh and we were out of egg rolls again last night. Thats at least the second time this week.

I don't get it. She's getting the same food, right?

Was it cheaper the way you put it in, vs the way she ordered it?

Yeah, I've had some fast food people do that for me. Once they realize what I ordered can be made cheaper in combo form, they'll ask if I want to turn it into one and save $x. Some just do it automagically, and I wouldn't know a thing if it weren't for the screen.

I'm guessing that's what happened. The lady saw that there's suddenly a combo and "That's not what I want!" Oh well. Consider the extra cost a donation, Whiskey.

The new tills at the cinema turn things into combos automatically. Back when we had evrything-has-its-own-button tills the staff were supposed to spot the combos and do it.

Had some customers who were suprised to be be paying less because we turned stuff into a combo. Never had one who complained, though.

[UncleImpy]

The way the combos ring up has caused multiple sightings on my behalf. For instance, the local MickeyDs, a combo rings up as an item for the sammich combo, then another item for the drink (presumably so the order runners know what to make, etc), and the sammich item is the price of the combo - the price of the drink, so when it all rings up together...voila! You get what was on the menu board.

OH

MY

GOD

One little princess in her pea green new Beetle actually had the cashier print the reciept out and then argued with her for 5 minutes at the window that it was wrong. Had to lean out my window and scream at her to shut the f*ck up, it adds up the same, Im hungry and I have 20 mins left on my lunch break.

Cashier gave me a free pie

[Saphire089]

Wait you saved her money, and she complained? oy...

[Whiskey]

Yeah it was way cheaper. The sandwich alone was 4.20, medium drink is like 1.79, small fries is like... 1.59? before tax its like 7.60 or so. The combo was a little over 5$ i think

Let's try to think like the customer - "it's not what I ordered (and I think you're trying to cheat me, even though you're saving me money)" Then bang your head against the counter.

If you are trying to think like the customer, it might help to bang your head against the counter first.
