Their Relationship Is About To Get A Shake-down
(I get a phone call from a customer.)
Caller: “I just got my shake, and it isn’t a shake; it’s just milk!”
(As I start to request details, I realize that her shake was made almost 40 minutes ago. It was a fairly unique shake, so, to be sure that she has called the right location, and I am dealing with the right order, I ask:)
Me: “Is this the order from a half hour ago… with the [Soda], too?”
Caller: “No! We were just there!”
(The woman on the phone then starts yelling at someone in the background.)
Caller: “What else was on the order?!”
(I start to feel uneasy, because when we handed the order out, there was a man and a woman in the vehicle, but I get the impression that this caller is not that woman. I hear the man in the background.)
Man In Background: “I just got your food, baby; I just left there. Wait, hand me the phone. Let me talk to them. They pulled me up and parked me; that’s why the shake melted!”
(The caller screams at me that we parked him.)
Me: “We may have, but I’m still trying to figure out which order yours was, and the last car we parked was 30 minutes ago. What else was on the order? Was this the guy who had the [Shake that she is claiming that is milk], the two kids’ meals, and the [Soda]?”
(There was silence on the phone. Then, I heard what sounded like a demon unleashing their wrath upon someone. Then, the phone hung up. I wish I didn’t have to deal with people trying to involve my job in their breakup or infidelity.)
