This. If the story is true (which for some reason, I can't decide one way or the other on its veracity), I'm amazed that anyone in any modern, civilised country wouldn't know what mozzarella is. Maybe a backwater shithole like, oh... i don't know... anywhere in Eastern Europe, but not civilised countries.

I was having dinner at a nice restaurant called Bridges with my partner and her three kids for her birthday, along with their elderly lady nanny.
I decided to order the jambalaya but I asked the waiter to make mine not spicy (because I'm allergic to pepper). The food arrived quickly and it looked terrific but as soon as I took the first bite I started to cough, then began to choke. To my horror I realized that the jambalaya had pepper in it - a LOT of pepper. The choking got worse and I couldn't breathe but then the nanny came running over yelling:
"HELP IS ON THE WAY DEAR!"
She got into position behind me and started to firmly give me the heimlich maneuver. After what felt like forever a piece of shrimp flew out of my throat and suddenly I could breathe again. I turn to thank her for saving my life but I froze when I saw that her "face" was a prosthetic and had peeled off. My date's nanny was Robin Williams!
I'm sure I caused a serious wtf moment for a sushi chef last year when I went to a sushi restaurant. I was trying out the keto meme diet (actually lost 30 pounds) and was mostly only ordering grilled meats while my friends were getting sushi.
Toward the end I felt like getting some sushi as well, so I asked the server if they could just do the roll in seaweed without the rice and of course he said yes. Now avocado is a really good food for keto, so without even looking at the menu I asked for an avocado roll. Waiter comes back with a plate full of plain chunks of avocado wrapped in seaweed. I thought the avocado roll was going to have some crab meat or at least something else in it, but it turns out it's literally just avocado wrapped in rice.

>>7138797
Sorry buttercup, but they get paid to know this shit. Being a "reasonable adult", would be knowing the ins-and-outs of your job; taking the responsibility that was given unto you during the hiring process and applying it to provide the service which you're being compensated for.
It's not a customers responsibility, nor should it ever be, to explain to an employee things they should already know.
>>7138814
trolled
>>7138814
It concerns me that your opinion seems to be 'they get paid for it, so its within my rights to be a raging dickhead to them when they don't know'. I worry now about how prevalent such an attitude is
>>7138595
fat people are medically more stupid than thin people and people that work at fast food restaurants are lower class and therefore more stupid and less able than real people so I'm not exactly sure what you expected, OP.

I made my own fuckin sub. 6 of them. For $10.
>>7138941
There's nothing wrong with that mindset whatsoever. You pay someone to do something. They don't do it. Why are you paying them? Nowhere in any scenario in this thread, especially in the OP, was there anyone being a dickhead. Particular sub par services have certainly been pointed out, but nobody here is being a dick except maybe for you people who apparently want such poor service to go without criticism, and that just doesn't make sense in the real world.
>>7138954

Just make your own fucking sandwich if you're going to get something like that. $4 for ham, 99c shredded lettuce, $2 bag of bread or hoagies, $4 squeeze bottle mayo. You could have like six subs then.
I was at a restaurant for lunch and I saw a pod of three whales sitting at a booth. The problem was each one, once settled, covered the majority of the booth seat, so the littlest whale had to grab a chair from a nearby table and sit on the side.

If you're being served by a guy whose job it is to make subs and he doesn't know how to make subs, then yeah Op's displeasure is pretty justified. It's not rocket science.

Because he is. He was a fucking customer. That's how business transactions work.

Dude we get the same exact sandwich, but I'm more picky.
I wont take a piece of bread that has already been cut unless I saw them cut it because the old breads always seem slightly stale.
And I always have them put the bell pepper and onion on before the cheese and I put the olives on after it's toasted.
Toasted for 10 seconds and done.
I have to be so specific that even I'm annoyed, but I get a perfect sandwich every single time.
>>7138954
I remember that thread.

>>7139232
What would have been justified would be to leave and take your business elsewhere, not stew in autistic rage for five minutes AND THEN PAY ANYWAY.
If that really happened, I'd be willing to bet the Subway guy was fucking with him. Saw this awkward dodgy freak waddle in and fingered him as the beta he is, and proceeded to play dumbass with his entire order.
He and the guy behind OP probably had the biggest laugh of the month together after he walked out the door.

In my last year at school one of my friends was working at Subway and another one at Burger King. The friend who worked at Burger King also had a grandmother who owned a butchery. So we had lots of bbqs at my place with free meat and Big King sauce. Everytime I went to the drivethrough of that Burger King and my friend was working I ordered an ice cream and got two big bags full of stuff. We mainly went to Subway in order to get cookies.

I don't know where you would get stuff for a sub and make 6 of them for $10 making them $1.66 each and have actual meat and real vegetables and cheese on them not to mention condiments. Making a bologna and canned corn sub on stale bread with ketchup doesn't count. But awesome comment.

Not him, but let's see: the average half (six inch) sub roll across all varieties from Subway is about 80g with 57g being the lightest (plain, white "deli style roll") and the heaviest being 96g ("Italian herbs and cheese" roll).
As a baker, I can tell you that 800g of 65% hydration dough will bake down to a 680g loaf. The whole 114g "deli style roll" will use roughly 135g of 65% hydration dough which is roughly 61g of flour, which is a cost of about 6¢ per roll to the home baker or 3¢ for the half roll or 18¢ for six half subs and 36¢ for six whole subs.
Subway uses 3oz/75g of meat for a whole sub, so that'd be 3oz × 6 subs = 18oz of meat for whole subs and 9oz for half subs. Assuming all deli meat is the same price at $5.99/lb, that'd be $6.74 for the meat.
The use 1oz of pastuerised/processed cheese food per footlong. Assuming cheese costs the same as deli meat, that'd be $2.25.
So that's a total so far of $9.35, leaving 65¢ for veg and condiments, which is believable, but unlikely.
Still, I stand by his statement. I think it's entirely doable, especially if you buy cheaper deli meats and cheeses when they're on sale.
>love maths
>love food
Of course I'm a baker, right?

I want to believe he was new, because I just started working at a similar place and I'm not personally familiar with a lot of different cuts of meat/cheese. But I had a co-worker who was guiding me along (although I did have a customer be a giant asshole-I mean shit, I told you it was my first day, I'm sorry I'm having trouble keeping things straight).
If they left this guy alone without any training yeah that sucks, and that's not entirely his fault.
tl;dr working on the other side of that counter has made me infinitely more patient when it comes to Employees working customer service jobs.
>>7143290
>tl;dr working on the other side of that counter has made me infinitely more patient when it comes to Employees working customer service jobs.
This is why I think everyone should work in some kind of customer service/support job for a year or two at some point in their lives. Once you learn how to deal with insufferable asshole customers, you also better learn how to not act like one yourself.

they do, they just keep it like in a seperate freezer which leads me to believe the guy in OP's was likely new and never had anyone order mozzarella so he didn't know it was there...OP just needed to feel superior than someone since he has never been laid so he felt he could get momentary compensation by putting down another...which is funny because by going to subway, for the meatball sub of all things, he has no right to question another person's intelligence.

That's the thing: Swiss Jurassians barely consider themselves Swiss! There's this Jurassian separatist movement that wants to consolidate all of the Jura as one nation-state.
The region is kind of like Scotland that while there's quite a lot of pride in being Jurassian, just as there is in being Scottish and the residents generally support the idea of a consolidated Jura separate from either country, whenever referendums come up on the subject, they choose to maintain the status quo.
