Drive Thru Take Out

So Friday night I had this old man come in and ask me, "Do you have this?" In his hand was a old bill envelope that had, "Veggie Stir Fry, no fish sauce, no mushrooms!" I'm assuming he was getting it for someone else and I said ohh no sorry sir we only have chopped chicken with vegetables or chopped steak with vegetables we don't have any veggie stir fry. He smiles and says, "okay I'll be back." Being that he's an old man he's walking outside back to his car to go tell his wife that's waiting in the drivers seat. I'm watching them talk and the wife sends him back in. He finally comes back in and says, "What kind of chicken is it?" I tell him it's chicken thighs with teri sauce. He smiles and says, "Okay, I'll be back." Being that the poor man can hardly walk I tell him do you want me to just talk to your wife? lol. So I end up going outside to their car and doing the takeout order with his wife. lol. I tell the wife that it's chicken thighs with teri sauce and she goes, "Ohh chicken thighs are awful!" I go ummmm okay....and she goes, "It is good?" I said yeah it's pretty popular. She goes okay I'll have that and make sure there's no fish sauce (We don't use fish sauce at all). I go okay do you want fried rice, rice or potatoes? She said ohh what's in your fried rice? I say there's white onions, green onions, luncheon meat, and bacon bits. She goes ohh no no no I can't have that and just gets white rice. Then I ask if they want toss salad or mac salad and she goes is there fish in your mac salad and I said yes there's tuna inside and she goes, "Ohh no I can't have that I'm basically vegetarian." Umm lady you just ordered chicken for Pete's sake! But I just said okay Toss it is then! lol. I tell you there's always those few customers that never fail to blow my mind.
