I’m running extremely late for work, don’t know when I’ll be leaving tonight, and definitely will not have time to take lunch. It’s 10:30 – A&W is still selling their bacon and egg sandwich until 11am. Sweet; problem solved.

“Hi, can I have two bacon and eggers with no cheese please?”
“I have to check”
*checking*
*still checking*
*that is a lot of checking*
“They only have one egg, so you can only have one.”

Here’s my secret – I hate fried eggs anyway. In fact, whenever I get a breakfast sandwich from A&W, I open it up and cut the egg yolk out before I eat it. I also cover it in pepper, but that is not the issue here.

“You know what, that’s okay – just make the second one without egg.”
“But they only have one egg!”
“I know – make one with egg, and the other just bacon.”
“Just bacon?”
“Yes, no egg and no cheese – just bacon”
“I have to check”
*muttering*
*no, she just wants bacon*
*no cheese either*
*I know it’s weird, but that’s what she said*
*okay, I’ll ask*

“Do you want cheese on the other one?”
“Nope – just bacon. No egg, no cheese – just the meat and bun.”
“Just bacon? Really? Meat and bun only?”

At this point I’m aware of every single A&W employee staring at me from behind the grill area. They all look utterly scandalized for some reason.

“Meat and bun only. It’s fine, I promise! No cheese!”
*yells back* She just wants the bacon!
*mutter mutter*

“Okay, he’s making some eggs. You want cheese on those?”
“NO! NO CHEESE ON ANYTHING!”
“$4.20, please”
*hands over money*
*gets sandwiches*
*runs to work*

There’s cheese on one of the sandwiches.

I give up.
