I stopped off at Mickey Dee's on the way to work to get one of those pumpkin latte's. I'd never had one and thought about how good it sounded, especially after I had finished my regular joe that I brought with me from home.
For Friday, it was a bit crowded, but I had time before having to be at work. I ordered, then another customer came and waited with me, and finally, Asshole Who Ordered His Frappe (AWOHF) came in to make everything a bit more, well, exciting.
MDE (Mickey Dee's Employee)
AWOHF (Already mentioned above)
AWOHF: Yeah, I'd like a frappe. Man, why is your drive-thru line so long? Can't you do anything abou it?
MDE: Fridays are normally like that, sir. (And about two minutes passed after she took his order)
I was still waiting for my latte, as there was one other customer ahead of me, too. Finally:
AWOHF: Hey! How much longer is this going to take? This is bad!
MDE: Sir, there are at least two other people ahead of you also waiting.
AWOHF: (Started breathing hard and pacing rapidly back and forth, until finally):
AWOHF's frappe showed up on the counter, and he left with it, without a thank you. Meanwhile, the one customer ahead of me and myself are staring in disbelief at this guy, not to mention in anger, because he got his stuff before we did. My latte could not have taken more than thirty seconds to make, but because AWOHF had to be an asshole about it, Mickey Dee's gave in, and served him first, probably to get rid of him. After all, he had already paid.
I guess I need to quit being so nice.
