Cinnabread Spite
There's a man who comes in often. Spends a LOT of money, $15 lunch almost every day, plus his friend ( which costs the same or more).
He wants a chicken melt, honey mustard on the side, and a side salad from the bar. We cook the hoagies fricking fast, because you want fricking fresh food. Good deal, right?
We take it out to him in under 5min.
Guy: Could you not bring it so soon? I'm not done with my salad.
Me: Sure!
Another time: 10min.
Guy: I'm not even done with half my salad!
Another time: 15min.
Guy: But I'm still talking to my friend!
Another time: 18min.
He has left the store to go get his friend, left his things, and comes back complaining his hoagie is cold.
Another time: 14min.
He is walking around talking to neighbors.
Another time: 25 min.
He is FINALLY done talking, and almost finished with the salad.
Today, he ordered the pizza buffet. So we sigh in relief!
Then we regret.
This man ate a salad, the normal pasta and bread/cheese stick count.
He ate medium-large size amount of pizza.
Then, he ate a whole cinnabread.
Then, half of another.
Then, half a chocolate pizza.
Then, the remaining cinnabread.
Then, half an apple dessert, and a cinnabread.
Then, he had pasta.
Then, another half cinnabread, and stopped to talk to his neighbors.
When he got up to get some drink, he approches me.
Guy: Can I take a cinnabread home?
Me: Sure, they're 3.99 plus tax.
Guy: No, can I take the buffet one home?
Me: No...
He scowls, and grabs a plate, and eats the next two cinnabreads I put out.
I assume it was out of spite.
