Eat Fresh?

I love subway sandwiches... and i love that its $5 for a footlong...and i love that i dont have to feel guitly about eating there after hitting up the gym. Anywho...that being said...THis is how my last visit to Subway went down:

I walk in and scope out the line to see how long i'll have to wait .. Only 2 people in line. Great! i think.. Turns out...the first lady in line apparently was ordering footlongs for her entire extended family.. 7 footlongs. SEVEN. And true to form, Subway only had one girl working. And little Miss Subway was Not the quickest of gals. She would fix ONE sandwich at a time...vvveeerrrryyy...slloooowwwlly.. And she looked like she hated life. Never cracked even a half smile and kept snapping at the lady customer to " speak up". geez. So i think to myself. " Tracy, dont be too hard on this gal...you have no idea what is going on in her life right now... " So.. im really trying to be patient. I FINALLY get the chance to order and she looks at me like she hates me for being there, hates me for ordering, hates me for having to fix my sandwich. Ok people, i know that subway is probably not your dream job, and you probably hate being there,, and maybe you had an awful day. But sometimes ya just gotta fake it till you make it, ya know. BUCK UP.

I put on my best fake smile... order with a sweet tone..and by the time we get to the cash register...im about ready to come across that glass cover and thump her in the forehead. I ask " Rough day?" SHe looks up, wipes her snotty nose and says, "yes! i can t wait to get off.... Im sick."

Great. wonderful. ..Sick girl... just fixed my 'fresh' sandwich.... OH but that's not all ....

i say, (halfway disgusted). "im sorry, it stinks having to work not feeling well"...and SHE SAYS..

" YEA>>> I have the STOMACH VIRUS. My kids are always bringin' home nasty sicknesses from school. "

WHATTTTT????! yes. i heard right: "stomach virus." FAN-freakin-Tastic" ..

it was all i could do not to leave that sandwich sitting right there.! Dont come to work...AT SUBWAY...with the stomach virus. no thank you.

GRRRR.

so apparently these days... you may get a footlong for $5...but be careful what other "freebies' you may get along with that!
