too much booze...

a woman the other night ordered a brandy on the rocks. i dropped it off at the table. i then came back later and the drink was barely touched and banished to the edge of the table. i asked if everything was okay with the beverage. her response: it's too much booze.

you're wrong. just wanted to let you know.

so i also work at a coffeeplace. this morning, a dude ordered a drink and we made it one size larger. he pointed this out, and we said apologized, and offered to make him a new one right away. he declined and walked away with the drink, leaving us with these parting words: no, it's fine. i'll take it. i just wanted to let you know you were wrong.

that's right...please keep spreading that sunshine around.

dairyology.

actual order:

i'll take a coffee, about two-thirds full, in a pint glass, with a coffee sleeve, a little pitcher of skim milk as well as a little pitcher of half and half, plus sweetner please.

and this wasn't even ordered at the coffee establishment that i work at.

i'll have taco tuesday...

actual conversation with a customer:

me: and what can i get for you sir?
dude: i'll have taco tuesday.
(note: it's wednesday night.)
me: i'm sorry...but we only have tacos on tuesday night. tonight's special is the perch fish fry.
dude: ok...i'll have a two egg omelette.
(note: it's about 9 p.m. and the restaurant never has omelettes, not even during brunch.)

he ended up ordering some soup, and two eggs, sunny side up.
