  • a new twist on an old favorite

    As you can tell by my signature, the most annoying words i hear repeated day after day are "Can I get a strawberry banana smoothie?"

    I know that some smoothie places you can just say what fruit/flavor you want and they throw it in and blend it up. Not Us..we have a huge menu with clever names for each individual smoothie that is literally right in front of you as you walk into my store. Cant miss it...but again..I forget about where I am. *sigh*

    On this menu board we have 6 smoothies alone that are specifically strawberry banana flavored but probably 75% of the menu actually has strawberry and bananas in it. So when one asks for a smoothie with strawberry and bananas in it (or just strawberry is runner up!) without looking at the menu....I..well...damn I wish I really had a flamethrower.

    Anyhoo...Tonight we had the gem of all strawberry bananners. She wanted a strawberry banana smoothie that came in a cup! yes..that's right she wanted the smoothie that came in a cup....Apparently she was under the impression that once we were done with the smoothie we just poured it in her hands!

    I was standing over my team member's shoulder waiting to make the smoothie when I heard it and I had to turn around to stifle my laugh. I was crying I was laughing so hard (but as discreetly as possible...I'm surprised she didn't notice!)

    Gotta love those customers that put their own twists on things!

    That reminds me of that stupid Denny's "Nannerpuss" commercial!

    Maybe she thought it was like some ice cream places where you get your choice of sugar cone or waffle cone? Otherwise, I got nothin'.

      I just saw that commercial for the first time today. I have to admit, i did a double take when i heard "nannerpuss."

      Am i the only one that sees the dirtiness in that?
      Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.
