Subway cheese adventure
After a long day of errands, I stopped at Subway for dinner. I ordered a 6-inch sub, which was handed to a high-school-aged guy after the turkey and cheese was put on. Now, I'm sure many of you have seen this diagram showing how cheese should be placed on a sandwich for optimal cheese coverage. Makes sense, right? No overlap. Well, the lady before put the cheese on without alternating the points of the triangles, so I had a sad area of overlap.
No problem, I thought, I'll ask this young, outstanding gentleman to fix my cheese.
This is what I was asking the guy to do:
Pretty basic, right? No cheese overlap. This is what the guy was presented with:
I asked him, "could you please switch the cheese around? So it's not overlapping?" Well, this is what he did:
I paused for a second, and tried to re-explain. "Oh, I meant...if you could turn just one of the slices around..." His eyes lit up, realization finally dawning. He quickly turned one slice around...
I gave up.
