DAY ONE A JIMMY JOHN'S
i'm working the register and some lady comes in talking on her cell phone, standing in front of me, but not ordering. so i'm annoyed. then she hangs up and i smile and say "how can i help you?" and she says "who was the girl that took my order?!"
obviously, i looked confused, because she explain "pick-up order for sheila. who was the girl i talked to?!" i'm about to explain that i don't monitor all incoming calls, when my boss comes and says "on west grand boulevard?" she says yes, and my boss says that order was delivered, and she responds "I KNOW! i was just on the phone with my office, and your guy showed up there! when i called, i said it was a pick-up order! WHO'S THE GIRL THAT TOOK MY ORDER?!"
so my boss points out that she had given her address, and she says "but i said 'pick up'! GOD! you people are so stupid!"
so i'm standing in the middle thinking, "if you wanted to pick up the food, wy did you feel it was necessary to give us the address you were coming from?"
the two of us that were standing there (my boss and i) neither took, prepared, or delivered her order, and she's calling us stupid. if it wasn't my first day, i probably would have jumped over the counter at her throat.
well, tomarrow's another work day....
