Realized He’s Nuts Before You Did
(I am the customer in this case and can only blame it on the fact that I hadn’t had any coffee yet!)
Waiter: “And what would you like, ma’am?”
Me: “Um, the granola; does it come with yogurt?” *points at meal description that has ‘YOGURT’ at the top of the list*
Waiter: “Yes.”
Me: “Oh, okay. And the toasted coconut… would I be able to get this without the coconut?”
(I see the incredulous look on the waiter’s face. I’m basically asking him to go through mixed granola and pick out coconut shreds by hand, and try to save face…)
Me: “…or would that be a tall order?”
Waiter: “Yes, ma’am. That would be a VERY tall order.”
