Anything Else But This!
(I pull up to a fast food restaurant’s drive-thru to order food for three different people.)
Employee: “Hi, welcome to [Restaurant]. Can I take your order?”
Me: “Sure, I will have a combo #7, large size, with a diet [drink].”
Employee: “Okay, anything else?”
Me: “Yes, several more items. I’ll also have a cheeseburger, no pickles.”
Employee: “Anything else?”
Me: “Yes, still, several more items. I will also have a ten-piece chicken.”
Employee: “Anything else?”
Me: “This will go faster if you stop interrupting me asking me anything else.”
Employee: “Sorry.”
Me: “I would like honey mustard sauce with those chicken pieces.”
Employee: “Anything else?”
(All in all it probably took twice as long as if he would have just listened to my order. In addition, I had to correct several things that he punched into the computer wrong. I wish drive-thru people would just listen to their customers instead of talking over them.)
