Free Cherry Limeade

So there I am, on my lunch break, waiting in line at Sonics (since the only food we have in the house right now are some stale wheat thins and a cheese stick). I'm talking to Dustin through the bluetooth in my car - which is probably the coolest thing about having a new car. I don't have to hold my phone at all. I talk normally and he talks back through the speakers. Well, it WAS awesome until it was my turn to pull up to the window.

UntitledThe girl handed me my lunch and I noticed that there were french fries in the bag instead of onion rings - which I had ordered. So I handed the bag back to her and politely reminded her I ordered onion rings. Well, Dustin (not realizing he was basically on the ultimate speaker phone) said "She just wanted some goddam onion rings!". Now he said this completely joking around and he THOUGHT I was the only one that could hear him. Wrong. I immediately replied "Shut up DUSTIN!" in the Kenny Powers-talking-to-his-brother-Dustin voice and smiled in embarrassment at the girl in the window.

As she was fixing my order  spitting in my food, I told Dustin what just happened. He of course starts cracking up. I mean sure it was funny but damn I didn't want this perfectly nice high school girl to think I'm a bitch. She came back to the window and said "We are just going to make your entire order fresh. It'll be just a few more minutes." I said thank you a million times and hung up with Dustin.

Not only did the girl give me a fresh burger and fresh ONION RINGS, but she gave me a free cherry limeade poker chip "for my trouble". I thanked her a million more times, told her I appreciate the free drink, and that I hope she has a nice day.

But I'm pretty sure behind her smile she was thinking all sorts of profanities about me.
