Lemonade? Diet Coke? What the Hell do you WANT?!

[Mordecai]

I recently had the pleasure of dealing with this customer at the theatre I work at:

SC: I'd like one small lemonade and one small diet coke
Me: "Is about to fill up first drink" So that was diet coke and a lemonade, right?
SC: No, no, I said lemonade!
Me: "Is confused" Right, one lemonade and a diet coke?
SC: No, a lemonade!!!
Me: So, two lemonades?
SC: No, one lemonade and one diet coke!!!!!
Me: "Finishes filling up both drinks and rings up SC while she begins to stare at me like I'm an idiot" Thank you, have a nice day.

Honestly, it's bad enough when customers aren't clear about what they want, but what really annoys me is when they act as if you're the one with a problem.

Guess they expected you to make a Garbage Soda? (You know, a cup with a mixture of Lemonade and Diet Coke). No surprise from an SC to make such a simple exercise so confusing.

What, you don't have ESP? Didn't know EXACTLY what she wanted?

Oh wait... you DID! You repeated it back verbatim, and she still got angry...

Douchenozzle if I ever saw one.

"Ok ma'am, here's your two cups of poison... I mean lemonade and diet coke. Enjoy!"

[Becks]

"Uh...I don't think that's lemonade..."

Meth is a hell of a drug...

I think maybe she wanted you to do them in that order? I am reminded of a story I heard once, (I think it was here long ago) where a lady bitched because she had two kids, one wanted bacon or some such thing on his food and one didn't. Her complaint was that the one whose sandwich was to have it had none and the one whose sandwich was to have none had some. I think maybe their brains are just incapable of processing information in that manner.

lemonade +diet soda =

[BookstoreEscapee]

lemonade +diet soda =

Diet Coke + Root beer (not diet) + cherry syrup = ! (tastes kinda like bubble gum). The Wawa near me has a really cool soda fountain that has 4 flavors of syrup so you can add a flavor shot to your drink, plus 12 or 16 different kinds of soda (including caffeine free diet coke! w00t!)

Mordecai - she was probably just confused cuz you did them in the wrong order. They don't taste the same, then, don't you know?

Would it be considered odd that I, in my head, heard the title exclaimed by various characters from the TV show Firefly?

I remember that one! Whadda trip.

I love you, would you marry me?

I might go with 'yes' on this one ... the only person who I can really go with for it would be Jayne...maybe... unless it's Mal to Inara...????
