Why All-You-Can-Eat Is Asking For Trouble

I work at a famous breakfast and pancake chain in the USA. We’re doing an “all-you-can-eat pancakes” limited deal, which has been very popular. I am working in the drive-thru.

Customer: “I’ll take the ‘all-you-can-eat pancakes’ meal.”

Me: “Sorry, sir, that deal is only available in-store, not in the drive-thru.”

Customer: “Why not?”

Me: “Well… it’s all-you-can-eat. It doesn’t really work in the drive-thru. You have to order a specific number.”

Customer: “Give me all I can eat!”

Me: “It doesn’t work like that, sir.”

Customer: “You’re discriminating against drivers!”

Me: “You can come inside to enjoy the deal, sir.”

Customer: “It’s okay. Just remember my face. I’ll drive back for my refill.”
