Snickering At The Service
(I work at a sandwich shop during my first few years of college. One day during a slow period my two coworkers see this lady come inside on the security cameras. My coworkers immediately say ‘not it!’ so I go up to take care of this woman’s order. The lady is already irritated and being short with me, over something like she’s late or she’s had a bad day. The order is going along fine until we get to the part where she tells me what veggies she wants.)
Customer: “And now I want the snicker cheese.”
Me: *confused* “The what?”
Customer: “The snicker cheese.”
Me: *still confused* “…like the candy bar?”
Customer: “Yes, the cheese that tastes like the Snicker’s candy bar.”
(It turns out she wants the parmesan oregano. I can tell you from experience parmesan oregano tastes nothing like a Snicker’s candy bar. After finishing the woman’s order, I go back and my coworkers ask me what was up with her. I tell them what she said and they both just kind of give me this weird look.)
Me: “You don’t believe me, do you?”
Coworker: “No, I believe you. Something that stupid can’t be made up.”
