last night-

Me: And what would you like, sir?
Stupid guy: i don't know, how about just a cheeseburger
Me: ok and what kind of cheese would you like?
Stupid guy: no cheese
Me: uh, you want a cheeseburger no cheese?
Stupid guy: yeah
Me: so you want a hamburger?
Stupid guy: ok

or the night before last-

Stupid Guy: what's this? (pointing to item on the menu) a tuna sandwich?
Me: yes sir
Stupid guy: like a tuna steak?
Me: no, like tuna salad
Stupid guy: no i don't want a salad i'm talking about the sandwich
Me: yes, it's a sandwich made of tuna salad
Stupid guy: not a tuna steak?
Me: no, we don't have tuna steaks
Stupid guy: how do you mean it's a tuna salad?
Me: (very annoyed at this point) you know, you open a can, dump the tuna out and mix it with mayo and other things?
Stupid guy: (looking very confused) well i'd like a tuna steak
Me: i'm sorry we don't have those (didn't i just say that?)
Stupid guy: I'd like a turkeyburger cooked medium, please
Me: (not believing what i just heard) I beg your pardon?
Stupid guy: TURKEY BURGER MEDIUM!!
Me: I'm sorry sir but all poultry is cooked well done... otherwise you could get very sick.
Stupid guy: oh.


seriously.... i hope that man doesn't cook for himself at home and go "hmmm i'd like my chicken breast medium rare tonight" who does NOT know that poultry must be cooked well done?

oh oh oh.... or how about this one.... dude comes in and says his son's going to be meeting him in a few minutes... it's late, we're a bar only after 9 pm and everyone in the building must be 21 or over... so i tell this to the guy and ask how old his son is and he goes "uhh about 21?" ABOUT 21? i laugh and go "ok when he gets here i'll see his id" and he throws a fit and goes "god can't a guy just have some dinner?" so he calls his kid and then tells me proudly "my son's on his way with his id" i'm thinking "oh riiiiiight... let's see this fake" i'm pretty confident in my ability to spot fake ids so i laugh it off and wait for the kid to show up... he proudly gives me an id and the very first security feature that i look for is incorrect so i laugh and go skipping across the restaurant to the manager on duty so he can confiscate the id and kick them out...

seriously though... about 21? your parents should know your age... make sure they know what your fake id says when you go out with them...

isn't food service GREAT? well, the tips are usually good...
