Isn't their whole concept that you tell them what you want on it? I'd say they've been pretty successful at it. If you order a burger at Ruby Tuesday's do you just expect them to cook it the way they want to, or would you like them to ask? Maybe you're not that picky. As for the English thing. If you have no problems with folks from other countries and have a buddy who struggles with the language than you of all people should have considerable patience for such a thing. In any event, imagine moving to another country to make a better life for yourself and realizing that the best job you can get for the time being is at Subway. Now imagine that you are studying the language so you can advance your station in life (assuming that all immigrants do this) and then you have some redneck walk in and ask for "Maters" on his sandwich. WTF?
Why don't you try pulling your drawers out of that wad you got going on there. The whole point is, if you are trying to serve the public, you might want to have a basic grasp of the dang language the majority of your customers are going to be ordering in. If I went to a Hispanic country and got a job, I probably would be required to speak conversational Spanish. Si?
... Oh, and then imagine if you post a "little" humor on this board regarding a real-life scenario... and then imagine that there are folks out there that can't grasp the concept that folks can smile every now and then about stuff like this. I'm not saying that these folks shouldn't have taken the job... I just wonder why subway has to make it a point to stockpile so many of them into each location.
Still looks as though your skivvies are still pretty tight on ya.... curious Harv do you know what a sense of humor is?????
One thing some of these restaurants could use is something like what Sheetz does with their grille. You go through a menu screen where you select what you want and don't have to talk to anybody. Its frustrating when you can't communicate with restaurant employees between your own dialect and their broken English. Of course, as we have discussed before, McDs is experimenting with remote order taking in some locations. Makes sense if they can pull it off, then the young latina at the window need only know how to say 'thank you' and understand words like ketchup, straws, napkins, etc.
Yes, I did make fun of the ridiculous icons that represent corporate America. However, let's compare grapes to grapes not not raisins to your testicles... Kudos to you that you have "looked me up". Learned alot huh? I was not referencing the human beings that work there and try to support families. I was making reference to the ignorance of some of the patrons (thank you for being my perfect example). In the BK and McDonald's thread, I was making reference to Corporate America creating these idiotic icons to represent them. Ironic that you call yourself a "Redneck" that you would fall in the same catagory as corporate America, being that you represent yourself as an idiotic icon also. But thanks for taking an interest and "looking me up".
Took you that long to think something up huh? Tell you what let's play nice. In fact, let's play horse... I'll be the front and you just be yourself. PS- Don't enter a battle of wits un-armed. Could get ugly... I mean uglier.
What I have a problem with is that the last one I was in, I ordered the Chicken Bacon Ranch, or something like that - as it was on their board. Picked the bread, toasted it, added the toppings, then the "foreigner" asks "you want dressing?". Umm... It wasn't called the Chicken Bacon RANCH for nothing, that would mean Ranch dressing on it! :?
Naw, that won't right of me. I woulda taken their point to heart if it weren't for the whole "raisin" comment.
Where you been today Missy? <spank you> Oh and don't get JK started on the *Ranch* episode :lol::lol::lol:
I bees around... i had to go to Smithfield earlier, lookin' for some clothes for DH and now home, might be naptime, i didn't sleep good last night.
