Small sub please...

[vmc1161]

Well I went to a sub shop near a job I was doing, I got a medium Italian with out hots. Sometimes I’ll get the Hots …for the sub that is… Well I am sitting there enjoying my Italian sub without hots and I hear another customer order a small sub…now this sub shop, like some others around these parts has medium and large subs. So the sub shop guy (SSG) tells the customer they only have medium or large subs. The customer says he wants a small…SSG says we only have medium or large…customer says I want a small…SSG says medium is as small as you can get…customer says you are not a huge corporation so you should be able to change what you do and make me a small sub…SSG who is now P.O.ed says this is how we do it here and that’s it, take a medium and just don’t eat it all. Customer says no, you take a medium, cut it down two inches and put less in it and sell me a small sub…SSG “no” The customer at this point looks like he is going to explode…he turns around and storms out. Now I get a good look at him and I’m thinking…he looks like one of the doctors at the medical building I’m working at…now that even makes it funnier.

So I go back to the building and finish up. Then I was going home to go to my youngest son’s High school graduation ceremony. I am just about to leave the house and my cell phone rings, it’s the people from the building I just left. Hey you have to get back here Dr. so and so’ office will not get below seventy-two, he is throwing a fit and says he wont pay his rent unless his A/C is fixed immediately . I ask what does he look like…oh boy…that’s him…I tell them what happened at the sub shop and that I’m going to my sons graduation …oh…never mind…can you be here first thing tomorrow morning…sure. OK have fun at the graduation I’ll deal with him. It system must have fixed it’s self because it ran fine for me…maybe I should have turned it off…

wow... that's too funny. What comes around goes around, I guess. I never understood how people like that ever make it through life.

Sounds like one of my customers, had one call said the office wouldn't get below 73, and I said so? Well they batched so I went there,a 120 mile drive, when I got there the stat was set at 73. I asked them what their problem was and they said it won't go below 73, I said you need to set it lower, and bumped it down to 70, and said effin morons as I walked out

How can these people survive?

We have a customer.... we have named her "The Mad Hatter". She calls us constantly about her ice machine. She runs a martini bar here in town. In her eyes, her ice has to be PERFECT in shape, all the time. "YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!!! I AM RUNNING A F*ING MARTINI BAR HERE!! IT HAS TO BE PERFECT!!!" She will call any time of the day or night, whenever she thinks it's not right. If you call her back after hours from your personal phone, and forget to *67, she will call you back every 5 minutes until you show up. No joke. The funny part is, she is obsessed with the SHAPE of her ice. She doesn't care about all the chunks of black crap in it because she refuses to have her machine cleaned... just the shape.

That's an easy fix, just sell her a shaver

What a goof................the doctor I mean.

[mcr]

We got a surgeon who is never satisfied with the O.R. temp. He's actually had them call down and ask for the temp to be changed 1/2°

[sir fix alot]

hots taste so good going in but they burn like hell on the way out

[gruntly]

Why wouldn't the SSG just call his subs small & large?

Maybe the doc comes in everyday and goes through just to go through this.

I would have nicely told him to pound sand. Complaining about 72º ???? That's just crazy.

I learned the answer to that by asking a SSG one day...he said because we do. I think it was a way of making them stand out...like you got more if you went there... It's kind of funny because if you ask for a small they make the medium and that's that.

He should have said, Sure. No problem." Make the medium, cut off the 2 inches, charge for the medium sub, and add additional charge for the cut. That's what docs do.

I would have told the doctor: "Have you tried that sub shop? They make excellent Italian subs. They made me a small sub because a medium was too big."

Oh...that's just great ... now I'm going to get in trouble......the look on his face would be worth it...

That's what the guys at the building were thinking to...


They were very happy that he got slapped down by the pizza guy...

That would have been hysterical...
