    Grumpy Old Women

    Mushroom Mayhem

    A husband was ordering for his wife at the bar. A co-worker served him. He was ordering her a steak meal.

    CW: And would you like peas and mushrooms, or a side salad?
    H: Just peas, nothing else.
    CW: OK.

    CW types in “NO MUSHROOMS” on the order. He repeats this back to the husband and completes the order. I take the meals out.

    Me: ...and I have the steak meal *places on table* Enjoy your meals.

    The wife immediately raised her beak and screeched.

    W: Excuuuuuuuuuuuuusee meeeeeeeeee?! But where are the mushrooms?
    Me: Oh. The check says “No mushrooms” but I can go back and-
    W: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever. Just get me my mushrooms and spare me your pathetic excuses for your own idiocy.
    Me: How about I go print out the order and show you what I –
    W: Lies, lies, lies.
    Me: Right, I don’t want to talk to you anymore. I will send someone else over with your mushrooms.
    W: Pathetic liar.

    I didn’t send someone over until she had pretty much finished her meal.

    You Can’t Win

    A lady ordered a cheese sandwich. It was sent out to her.

    L: There isn’t enough cheese in this! Take it back!

    I took it back to the kitchen and shoved a couple of extra slices in it. I returned to her table.

    L: Have you even bothered putting any more in? I want more cheese!

    I took it back, shoved three or four slices in and went back to the table.

    L: I said more cheese! Not a miniscule amount!

    I went back again, and I threw a handful of grated cheese into the sandwich.

    L: What do you think you are doing? Are you calling me fat? Are you trying to say something? I can’t eat all that cheese! It’s unhealthy! You are making fun of me!
    Me: For God’s sake.

    I turned on my heel and walked away. I sent the manager over.

    Make sure they're stemmed and peeled

      What a bunch of asshats! I, cannot, for the life of me figure out cheese sandwich lady. Was she fishing for a discount? As for the first biddy, she probably could've gotten her freaking mushrooms if she wasn't such an ass about it.

          How did you resist ing her -- or at least tossing her out -- for accusing you of lying over something as stupid as that? Maybe having their order slip on top of the plate of shrooms would have been effective...What a b****. Bad marks to the hubby as well for not speaking up and SAYING that he had ordered it that way.

            I loves me a good cheese sandwich but my god, the amount of cheese you put on that sandwich sounds down right disgusting. Silly old biddy.

              Reminds me of the picky customers I see in the Subway line. "That's not enough cheese!" they constantly whine, having the workers place more and more cheese on top of the sandwich, and then they bitch about how there's "too much" on there. Usually, I'm on my hour-long lunch break and the minutes are ticking by while I still don't have any food and these idiots are taking ten minutes to decide what to put on their single sandwich! I feel like smacking them all and saying they can take their asses home and make their own "perfect" sandwich the way they want it. I tell the Subway people, "Put on as much as you think is necessary." for my order and they seem to really appreciate that!

                We have a couple of Sunset Boulevards in town, and they have this whole array of veggies to put in your sandwich - so they'll ask which veggies to put in, and you can see them all through the glass and decide. I'm not particularly picky, so I'll usually just say "anything but tomates" (I'm allergic to those things), and my sadnwich will be ready really fast. But I somehow always end up behind some indecisive person, who has to ask about every single veggie - they have about 20-25 different things - how it tastes, is it good on this kind of sandwich and blahblahblah. And then of course bitch about it afterwards anyway. Gawd! I came in because I'm hungry, not to spend hours waiting for someone to decide and then bitch about what they got, no matter what :-(

                  That or they demand more cheese and throw a fit when we tell them it will cost more.

                    Oh my! You just reminded me of another incident that happened at the pub regarding vegetables. I must post it!

                      OT but this reminded me of the last time I went to our local Subway. I ordered a turkey sub. The employee looked at the tray of meat then apologized and said he needed some help. He came back with another employee who pointed out which meat the turkey was and apologized to me saying it was the other guys first day.

                      I looked down and realized "I" couldn't tell which of the meats the turkey was either! I haven't been back since.
                      You'll find a slight squeeze on the hooter an excellent safety precaution, Miss Scrumptious.
