This morning I stopped at the drive thru of a fast food place to pick up
breakfast sandwiches for a coworker and me. Should be a simple enough
transaction.

Place order and was given the total.
Drive to widow
Window opens, woman says "that will be $5.30 please. I pay and get change
Wait about 30 seconds
Widow opens, same woman says "that will be $3.25 please"

Me: "for what?"
Her: "what did you have?"
Me: "Nothing lady, I'm still waiting for my food"
Her: "Did you have the coffee?"
Me: "You need a coffee. WAKE UP and PAY ATTENTION"

Scenes like this, or worse, probably happen all over the country every day.

It's a good idea not to give crap to folks who are handling your food
out of your sight.


V-1
The food tastes good and I'm lovin' my meal
But if I got to thinkin', it could really spoil it.
When I think about whether you wash your hands
When you scratch your balls or use the toilet.
Chorus
Hey, hey, fast food man
I wonder if you washed your hands.
With all the things that you could do
I'm gonna be real nice to you.
V-2
You cough a little, and you rub your nose
You wipe your forehead, and I suppose
If I ****ed you off, you could spit on my food.
And **** and shit and semen too.

Last night we had subs for dinner. We have a real sub shop in
town. Call up to order so it's ready to be picked up: I'd like
buffalo wings and a whole number 13. That's an Italian sub.

Get there to pick it up, here you go, buffalo wings and a whole
number 2. Uh ... you mean a number 13. They had to make a
new sub. Out of curiousity I looked at the board, what's a
number 2. (heh) Anyway, it's a baloney and cheese sub.

I can't believe a sub like that has a number assigned to it. Who
orders that?? I had my share of baloney and cheese sandwiches
growing up. A whole sub's worth? Yikes.

People make mistakes all the time. But of course you never do. Give
her a break. In the scheme of things it's no big deal. Shit, people
let the smallest thing irritate them.

People like you order them when they are growing up. Simple.

Oh. You're the one. You can have all the number 2s.

Thanks but I'll pass. I had my share as a kid too!

That's the thing, as a sandwich, hey, a lot of us ate those.
But to magnify the amount of meat and cheese to a whole
10 inch stuffed sub size ... it doesn't translate to me, it's
too much.

(laugh) It sure didn't help the appetize factor when someone wants
to hand you a bag of #2. I confess to making juvenile jokes later about
the sub's appropriate number.

Like buildings that don't have a 13th floor, food places might think about
offering number 2 on their menu. Number 1 gets a pass for some
reason.

This was not a mistake, it was incompetence. She did not know I was the
same customer that never moved away in the 30 seconds since she took my
money. Evidently, she did not look at me, just went through some mechanics
of opening a window and taking money.

I make very few mistakes, but then, my standards are much higher than yours
too.
