So once again, I go to the BK at the student center and order a bacon double cheeseburger, and I get a double cheeseburger sans bacon. And again, I tell the lady, I said bacon double cheeseburger, and she's all "you said double cheeseburger". Uh, I think I know what I frakkin said! I wanted a bacon double cheeseburger, why would I just say double cheeseburger? Don't be putting words in my mouth, lady! I know what I said, you just misheard me! I'm a go with the flow kinda guy, but when it comes to eating out, I better get what I asked for!

I can't remember who I'm with who just lets it go, but I know there have been a couple of times I went somewhere with them and they didn't get what they want or didn't get some appetizer and they were just gonna let it go! You asked for it, you should get it!! Now, I understand food service is a tiring, thankless job. And I'm a somewhat generous tipper- I'm lazy so I end up just giving 20% on top of the post-tax total since that's the quickest to figure out (divide your total by 10 times 2) So its not like I don't respect them or anything. But if I ask for a bloomin' onion, I better get a bloomin' onion. If I want my hash browns scattered, smothered, covered, and chunked, they better be. None of this only scattered, smothered, and covered or whatever! I mean, if you go to a restaurant and order from the menu, and what you get is totally random, its chaos!

Owel, geek fun talk:

Finally back home from work. Got stuck at a meeting, which ridiculously enough, I had already been to this morning at 7am. But unlike [livejournal.com profile] clevemire, who only got stuck at work an extra 30 minutes this morning, I got stuck at work for an hour and a half!! Owel, I think I managed to leave right before the afternoon rush really got started. No getting stuck on Power's Ferry for a friggin hour. And I even managed to hit all the lights just right so they were green or about to be green. So that was cool. I wasn't looking forward to being stuck in traffic as I left work.

Not that the interstate drive wasn't uneventful. Just before Moores Mill, there was this SUV pulling a trailer in front and to the left of me, and the trailer's right tire exploded. Luckily, the guy didn't lose control and he managed to safely cross the three lanes to the right shoulder. And all I had to worry about was dodging flying tire shrapnel! Thank goodness its almost the end of the week.
