  • Odd customer requests from the Sandwich Shop or "Toast half of it!"

    A sandwich is a pretty basic thing. Most people aren't too picky about it.

    Then there's these folks...


    "I want a lot of lettuce, a lot of tomato, a lot of onion, then one pickle, one jalapeno, one banana pepper and one olive"

    "can you put the mayonnaise on the bread in the shape of a star please?"

    Customer who wanted the following: microwave the bread, microwave the meat, toast the whole thing, then microwave the whole thing.

    "Lettuce, tomato, pickles, bell peppers onions, then a second layer of lettuce tomato and pickles."

    "spread the chicken pieces out so each one is exactly a half an inch apart."

    "can you make me a turkey and ham six inch with all the meat at a 45 degree angle?"

    "I would like each piece of cheese carefully folded over."

    "can you tear out some of the bread please?" (asked by a woman who was apparently watching her carbs but went on to load the sandwich with three different types of sauces)

    "Give me three olives, spaced out like this. <demonstrates>"

    Toast half of it!

    And there was this guy. He ordered a footlong and wanted us to toast the bread on half of it. Usually this is not a problem. The problem was he wanted us to toast half of it BEFORE we cut it in half! Yes you read that right. As bizarre as it sounds he insisted on us toasting only half without cutting the bread beforehand.

    My manager and I told him that simply couldn't be done and he told us one of our other locations had found a way. When we asked him what that was, he couldn't remember. We told him it had to be cut before it could be toasted. He refused and left.

    Sounds like a rather half-baked plan to me.

            What a crumb-y thing to say.

              I'd say the bread wasn't the only thing that was toasted that day...

                  Dough! What a load of bunk.

                  Yeah, put the mayonnaise on the sammich in the shape of a star--but when the sammich is compacted and wrapped the mayonnaise won't be in any discernable shape anymore.

                    It's not like this is a single day of customers. I would say on average I get one or two oddballs a day.

                      It's easy! Take the full loaf, stick one in end in a panini grill and slam the lid on it!
                      I have a...thing. Wanna see it?

                        Your customers are nuts. I don't care how you slap the stuff on there as long as there's no meat. And....meat at a 45-degree angle?? Why?? Weird, just weird.

                          let me see some from the pizza place

                          "can you put the pepperonia in the shape of a happy face????"

                          "can you put the pepperonia in the shape of a heart?"

                          "can you cut the pizza in the shape of a pentogram???" (yes there is someone who does request this I am not kidding either)

                              Wait . . . he wanted the bread microwaved, the meat microwaved, the whole thing toasted, then the whole thing microwaved again???

                              The thing must have been a soggy, inedible mess!

                              Seriously OCD, some of these customers.
