The other night at Chick-fil-a there was a guy who was standing at the menu board taking orders via an iPad (I suppose their intercom was ka-busted). When I pulled up I said:
me: “[kkrkrssshhh] Okay, now you do your part. [kkrkrssshhh]”
him: [quizzical look]
me: “[kkrkrssshhh] Now you say, ‘[kkrkrssshhh] Welcome to Chick-fil-a. May I take your order? [kkrkrssshhh]’.”
him: [light dawns]”[kkrkrssshhh] Welcome to Chick-fil-a. May I take your order? [kkrkrssshhh]”
me: “[kkrkrssshhh] Yes, I’d like a number one combo with no pickle, please, with a diet caffeine-free coke… [kkrkrssshhh]” (etc.)
Once he got the game he played along, and as I drove away he was grinning, so I either amused him or he thought I was a complete nut. (Or both.)
