The Lie-To-Yourself Diet
Me: *answering phone* “Thank you for calling [Pizza Place]. This is [My Name]. Can I interest you in two large pizzas with up to five toppings and a pop for only $22.99?”
Customer: “No, I don’t need that much. I’m on a diet.”
Me: “Okay. What can I get you tonight?”
Customer: “Can I get a large veggie pizza, but hold the mushrooms, black olives, green peppers, and onions, and add sausage, beef, bacon, Canadian bacon and pepperoni.”
Me: “Okay, that would just be a meats pizza with tomatoes.”
Customer: “No, I’m on a diet. I need a veggie pizza because of my diet. but hold the mushrooms, black olives, green peppers, and onions, and add sausage, beef, bacon, Canadian bacon and pepperoni.”
Me: “Okay, no problem. Your total will be $11 and we will have it ready in 15 minutes.”
(I rang up the order the way she wanted it but told my coworkers that it was just a meats pizza with tomatoes.)
