Customer pulls into drive through. Pays, gets food.
DA: So why'd you guys have to move? *slightly annoyed tone, as if moving a whole three frigging blocks was a major hassle to him*
I stop for a second, thinking what's the best way to answer this guy's question without saying something like "well, the old store was falling apart, the kitchen was super ultra tiny, the driveway was full of massive potholes, etc.
ME: *formal tone* Well sir, the old location was no longer adequate for our current needs.
DA: Wow. Corporate gives you a line and you really memorize it.
ME: *annoyed at this guy's additude to me*
*goofy little kid grin* Actually sir I came up with that all by myself. I feel so sepcialful.
*dead serious glare* Now was there anything else you needed or would you just like to attempt to insult my intelligence again?
DA: *stunned look* *mumbles something to indicate a negative* *drives off*
I mean, grr. It was a perfectly concise answer that did not focus on any of the many many negatives about our old location, and he just assumed I was repeating someone else. He quickly learned otherwise, but still. His arrogance annoyed me.
And for that I sent him off with his tail between his legs. :D
