Two people today? First SC I asked what size fries and he repeated his order. And really, mumbled it. I can't hear w/ background noise, so I leaned in with "excuse me?" He got all annoyed & told me whatever size we have. I told him the sizes, finished his order, and told him to have a good day, whatever, blah blah. Kept STARING at me. Very uncomfortable. 2nd was an old couple who thought "what size" was "with fries?" arrgh

Try asking people "what type of bed do you want?" when they make reservations for a hotel room. Apparently, this is either a question they had not considered or they're too dumb to know.
Trust me, I can relate.Comment

My hearing is only starting to go, yet I'd make that mistake. And my specialist said that hearing aids wouldn't help me.Quoth Food Lady View Post
Seshat's self-help guide:
1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.

Sorry. I was only annoyed because the last guy was so mad. After I thought about it, the old couple was cute, like a comedy movie. My hearing sucks, too, if there's background noise. I usually apologize, but some people still get mad.Quoth Seshat View PostMy hearing is only starting to go, yet I'd make that mistake.

The ones that annoy me are those who get mad at me when they can't understand me. I stay polite and pleasant and repeat stuff as often as I have to, as clearly as I can. It's not my fault if they're calling on a crappy phone or they have a hearing problem (I have one too, so I know what it's like. I just don't go off on other people if I can't hear them).When you start at zero, everything's progress.Comment

Oh, good Gord, I had dumbasses like this when I worked the big yellow M's drive-thru. There were basically four size choices: small, medium, large and super .(this was waaaay before that Super-Size Me smear film.)
Simple choice, no? Hell no! Whenever I needed to prompt any customer for a size, they invariably answered "Regular"
I wanted to reach thru the drive-thru speaker and choke them.

My hearing is bad, period. I'm old, what can I say. But people seem to think my problem isn't my hearing, they just think I'm stupid. When I have to run a lane it's so noisy up there that I can't hear most of what people are saying to me.Quoth Food Lady View Post
It's usually people who's voices are a bit on the low side. What I hear can be compared to the "whah-whah-whah" sound that the unseen adults in the Snoopy cartoons make.
My co-workers get a bit impatient with me at times because they have to repeat things.
It does get annoying, even to me.

I had that problem the other night at a Qdoba. I had ordered a Chicken Mango Salad. First guy takes my order and puts the lettuce, chicken and dressing in the shell bowl, then passes it to the second lady whose job is to add salsa and cheese and sour cream. She asks me "which salsa" and I tell her it is a Mango Salad. She proceeds to put Pico de Gallo on the salad and asks if I want Cheese and Sour Cream. I tell her, "That was supposed to be a Mango Salad" and she gestured toward the Pico and said, "Tomato". I said again, "No, Mango!" She finally got it and threw away the first salad and remade it correctly. I always make sure to speak up and speak clearly, but they had the music up a but louder than normal and I am short enough that I am talking into the sneeze guard at that particular restaurant. Since none of the other people working there ever have a problem understanding me I suspect it was that fact that the music was too loud.
I hated that they wasted the salad, but it would have been a hybrid..neither Mango nor Taco Salad and probably not too tasty.Comment
