Craz-E
Me: *on the drive-thru intercom* “Welcome to [Coffee Company]. What can I get for you today?”
Customer: “I need an ‘E.’”
(The customer immediately pulls away from the intercom.)
Me: “What the heck’s an ‘E’?”
Coworker: “Oh, that’s for [Famous Lawyer]. I don’t remember exactly what it is, but he always expects us to know it. He won’t explain it if you ask. Try a [incredibly complicated drink].”
(The customer refuses to make small talk, and we notice him dump his coffee out his car window as he drives away.)
Coworker: “We must not have got it right. He’ll try the location down the street next.”
