I was waiting on a table today and this happened. I think it’s funny. Please don’t try to rationalize with what happened. Because you cannot:
Me: Hello, can I get you a drink started?
Customer: Yes, I’d love a soy latte.
Me: I am sorry, we do not have soy milk. Would you like one with regular milk?
Customer: (looking dissapointed, but not unpleasant) OK, but then you’d better make it decaf.
Long pause
Me:Ok I’ll get right on that!
Maybe they figured they could have caffeine if they had to suffer with soy. I don’t know. I would have paused long too. That is funny.
I like this!
suffer with soy is a good way to put it. It’s not like she was a vegan or lactose intolerant. She ordered eggs with cheese as well.
Hmmm, I think I like your blog. I like how you write and your sense of humor. I shall keep an eye on it me thinks.
well thanks, and hello!
This is just how you order a soy latte after Labor Day. Hey, I was thinking since the Jim Gaffigan show starts so late(10pm), we could meet somewhere close before the show for dinner, and invite Lindsay, Nick Bade, Angelina, and Alec, and other people from our past. It is my ploy to be weirded out. Like, I really want to see Graham Petersburg way after I knew him. Anyways, we could meet at about 5:30ish at a restaurant near the show, eat food, drink wine, and be merry! If your not into this, I am going to go by myself. Harumph!
I worked at McDonald’s for two years, and my favorites were the people who ordered a double-quarter-pounder with cheese meal, supersized, with a Diet Coke. I know, some people just like Diet better, but it still cracked me up inside 😀
I’m Theresa, btw – love your blog!
Ok – just read the part where you tell us to leave a link, and I don’t think my link is connected to my name (I’m new at this – can’t you tell??), so here you go – http://thereticentbutterfly.wordpress.com/
Have a great day!
