Almost As Bad As Diet Water
(I’m a server at a counter-service style restaurant. We also do takeout orders and customers can order over the phone. One day, the phone rings and I answer it.)
Me: “Hi, this is [Restaurant].”
Caller: “Do you have non-nutritional water?”
Me: *confused* “I’m sorry, sir, can you please repeat that?”
Caller: “NON-NUTRITIONAL WATER!”
Me: “I’m sorry, sir, I’m not sure what that is. We have bottled [Brand #1] and [Brand #2] water, and we also have water in the soda fountain.”
Caller: “Well, that’s no help!” *hangs up phone*
