Solving Difficult Number Tables
Coffee Shop | Right
| October 7, 2013
(The coffee shop I work in has a policy for customers to order their hot food from the tills, by providing their table number. Every table has its own individual number super-glued firmly to it. My coworker calls a customer to her counter.)
Coworker: “Hello there, are you ordering food today?”
Customer: “Yes, here’s our table number.”
(The customer then HANDS OVER the number plate that was super-glued to the table.)
Coworker: “Did you take this off of the table?”
Customer: “Yes! It was really stuck on there though!”
(I’ve never seen anyone take this policy quite so literally.)
