McDonald’s has two new flavors of McFlurry, Mudpie and Berries. Steev was standing in line to order.
The situation was quite chaotic at the takeout counter because the two servers were temps who didn’t have a clue how to handle lines.
Finally it was our turn.
Server (signaling to Steev): Yes?
Steev (pointing to signboard): McFlurry, one of each.
Server (leaning across counter): Yes?
Steev (pointing to signboard): McFlurry, one of each.
Server: What flavor?
Steev: One of each.
By now, it’s quite obvious this very simple expression is lost on our two teenaged servers (one of the girls goes to Raine’s school)!!
Me: One Mudpie, one Berries.
That’s what they needed to hear! The exact words. No phrases, expressions or indirect references please!
And people are still fighting for less English to be used in the school curriculum!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Seems like they are not familiar with the basics. Seems pretty basic – one of each. Oh well. I guess they will get it eventually.
These sound yummy! Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you again.

Looks like it’s not basic enough.

I remember having a similar problem when I wanted milk as a drink with my meal. They didn’t seem to understand the word milk, I wonder if they were just too use dto people asking for coke.
