Overly complicated food ordering Anynomous
posted December 4, 2006 - 3:20pmHI, my name is Sue stone (Hi Sue) and I overly complicate my food orders. (Applause)
It started from childhood when I was a finiky eater. My family would go to resturaunts and I would be unable to find one solitary thing to eat. Now as an adult I find myself ordering complex coffee drinks and fast food orders.
I always have ridiculous orders at Starbuck's like. "I"ll have a grande vanilla bean frap with two shots of esspresso caramel affangato style - no whip - to go." My order is so advanced that 2 outta 3 times the employee has never heard of it, looks at me with those dear-in-headlights eyes and rings something up that is cheaper then my actual order. It's a five dollar drink, I usually get it for three fiftey. Talk about putting one over the man!
My fast food ordering has been called the "Fancy ordering desease." My friend will order a number 2, I will order a no. 2 w/ cheese, but no tomatoe, onions, or pickles, make it seasoned fries instead of regular and I want to get a large meal but a medium drink - like, I will pay for a large (I love curley fries), but I really need a medium drink (Small cupholder, plus who needs all that soda?).
I have also been guilty of ordering things "on the side." All salad dressing must me on the side. Guacamole, sourcream, salsa, chicken salad strips, etc. must be on the side.
I have a feeling that my fancy ordering desease may say something about my personality that I am blind too. Does anyone know what this means? I mean, I don't think I am high maintanence or a control freak. Are these clear signs that I am?
