IT'S A FUNNY DAY @ CHICK FIL-A!!

     Well it's April Fools Day 2019! If you know me well, you very well know that I love to joke around. If you read my two posts today, you very well know that Chick Fil-a is NOT coming out with a steak fil a sandwich or a Chick Fil-A sauce shake. You also know I have been a Chick Fil-A employee since October 2015. Dealing with the general public can be a challenge and it's a miracle I am not bald from pulling my hair out from our "guests." I did think being that April Fool's Day is a fun day, it would be fun to blog today about some of the funny things I have seen and experienced at Chick Fil-A both at Port Jefferson and Commack. As a disclaimer, let me first say this is all in good fun and I am NOT mentioning guests by name simply because I do not know their names and I do respect our guests and appreciate their patronage.

Here we go

• While I was on headset at the drive thru, a lady pulled up in her car, I did my introduction "It's a great day at Chick Fil-A....." and she says (I still can't believe it) "Hi! I would like to order take out." Huh???? 
• At drive thru, a lady ordered a Hot Chocolate. We don't offer hot chocolate. She then asked if we could heat up our chocolate milk for her!
• A man ordered a grilled sandwich with no salad on top!
• I asked a guest if they were dining in or carrying out. They said "I'm dining out." So...which is it?
• A lady ordered a chocolate shake. At the end of her order I offered her a straw. She said "No! I want a chocolate shake not a strawberry. I looked at her and said "Ma'am, all I wanted to do was offer you a straw."
• In one weeks time, I was asked if we had coleslaw, onion rings, a baked potato and if they could have extra onions on their sandwich. All these things we do not carry.
• We sell a 4 count mini. I had a guest ask for a 4 count minute. Another guest ordered an 8 count nut. I thought they were nuggets?
• I said to a guest, "Sir, you ordered a Chick Fil-A sandwich meal with a lemonade?" "No, I ordered a number one with a lemonade!" "Sir, that IS a Chick Fil-A sandwich meal!!"
• A man asked for a medium coffee. I told him we only have large and small so he says "Okay, give me a medium!"
• We had one lady always order a number 7 burger. I told her we don't have burgers and she insisted on me giving her a number 7 burger. I referred to her as the "Number 7 Burger lady" and later saw her at a VBS I did at a church!!    

Let's talk about the sauces we offer!

Chick Fil-A sauce has been called: Chick a fill, Chick fy la, Chick flick sauce,

Polynesian sauce has been called: Pomeranian, Polyester, Pomegranate, Hawaiian,

Sriracha sauce has been called: La Cucaracha sauce, Srirachy sauce, Mariachi sauce

     I hope you enjoyed this glimpse into my crazy Chick Fil_A world. Dealing with these funny scenarios helps me keep my sanity!!

UNTIL NEXT TIME FRIENDS!!
