So, last night, I go to eat at McDoughballs (you know where I mean) and I order two cheeseburgers, no onions, and a coke. I hand the kid at the register a series 1999 $5, "Georged" with the round FRB stamp on the front and the web address on the back.
The kid looks at the bill, then calls the manager over. The manager looks at the bill, dissapears in back, then returns to the counter carrying a thick black binder. He flips a few pages, then looks at me and says "Sorry, we can't accept this bill."
"Why not?" I say.
"Well," says the manager, "do you see this picture? Your bill is different than the one in this picture, and we can not accept it."
"Okay." I said. Fortunately for me, I had a pocket full of quarters, and proceded to count out $3.50 in quarters.
The kid piped up "I don't think we can take that many quarters." I'll save everyone the math, $3.50 is 14 quarters.
Getting preturbed, and with the manager still nearby, I said to the kid "The quarters, or the bill. Decide now."
The manager said to the kid that they could accept the quarters "this time".
But now the real fun begins!
My order arrives, and in typical fast food fashion, the burgurs are compacted to a height of about 1/2 inch, and lopsided. I indicate for the manager to come over to the counter.
He walked over and asked "What's the problem?"
"Sorry," I said, "I can not accept these burgers."
"Why not?" he asked.
"Well," I said, "Do you see the picture of the cheeseburger behind you? These burgers in front of me bear no resemblance to the one in the picture, and I will not accept them."
The manager knew then that he was in a no win situation, but he did his best to appease me. "How about if I make you two fresh cheeseburgers that look better than these two?" he asked.
"That would be fine", I said, chuckling to myself, knowing what was going to happen next.
So the manager went back and supervised the creation of my two new burgers, and brought them out to me a few minutes later.
"I hope these are more to your liking, sir", said the manager. I could tell that he was seething underneath.
"Well," I said, "They do look better, but there is a problem."
"WHAT'S THE PROBLEM NOW?" he explodes.
Calmly, I looked at him, smiled, and said "When I placed my order, I said No Onions."
He remade the entire order for me again.
