  • Gravekeeper's customers have begun invading my drivethrough

    They've migrated, I swear to you.

    Tough Questions
    SC: "I'd like six chocolate sundaes!"
    Me: "OK, would you like any whipped cream and nuts?"
    SC: "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..... ......"

    And so on for 15+ seconds

    SC: "No!"
    Me: "OK, and what flavor ice cream?"
    SC: "What do you have?"
    Me: *Rolling eyes* "Vanilla...chocolate...and twist."
    SC: "Is twist like vanilla and strawberry?"
    Me: "......no. It's vanilla and chocolate."
    SC: "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... ...."

    I actually started banging my head against the drive window.

    SC: "Choc - ........no! Vanilla!"
    Me: "Good choice, Patty Duke. Can I get you anything else?"
    SC: "COKE!"

    Sadly, I believe she was not referring to the beverage.

    "Power of Now" Ekhart Tolle!

    I stood waiting (on the edge of my seat, I assure you) for around 10 minutes while a woman held up the drive through deciding on whether she wanted just plain Coke, or Diet Coke.

    Are The Bananas Real?

    I stood in front of a customer while making a banana split. As I peeled them, she asks "is that a real banana?"

    Me: "Yes. Yes it is."
    SC: "Are you sure? I don't want any artificial bananas."
    Me: "Yes, I bought them at Wal-Mart earlier today when the store opened. They are 100% real. And about 80% fresh."
    SC: "OK. Just so long as it's a real banana."
    Me: *still making split* "Do they even...make artificial bananas?"
    SC: "Yeah. They come in cans."
    Me: "I think that's banana pudding."
    SC: "No, no. It's got a picture of a banana on it."
    Me: "OK then. Here you go."

    That's all. For now.

      For now, at least. My descent into madness has only just begun.

          I got GK's campers through.

          Captain Card ! Captain Card! We need to make this longer but just adding the piece to the other one is too long {size requirement}, and then I go on for 5 minutes trying to nudge them to replace the one they have with the other one.

                The only artificial bananas I know of are usually plastic, wax or ceramic and little old ladies put them in display fruit bowls with other plastic, wax or ceramic fruit as a centerpiece for their dining room table.

                I think your customer has consumed a few too many wax bananas...!

                  Artificial bananas? At least she didn't ask if banana pudding is yellow, like Munchkin did a few weeks ago

                        In my former industrial town, many people have not worked in years... a growing number of them lack the mental capacity to order a hamburger at the McRestaurant's drive thu. Besides having problems making simple decisions, I don't think they are aware of all people waiting behind them... or maybe they just don't care.

                          At the 2 minute mark I'd tell them to pull around and when they've figured out what they want, they can come back through. There's no excuse for some vacuum brain to hold up the entire line because they can't figure out the difference between regular and diet and which one they want.

                              You know, when I heard 'artificial bananas' all I could think of was an old marshmallow candy called 'Circus Peanuts'. They were peanut shaped but banana flavored.
