Today I was out running errands and worked up a pretty good appetite. I decided to stop at a restaurant that I had never been to but had been wanting to try for quite some time. I knew I wanted to order my food to go, so I went to the area of the restaurant that was clearly marked for to-go orders and stood in line behind two other people.
The restaurant was busy, but to my delight, there were two employees at the counter taking orders and ringing people up, so the short line was moving pretty quickly. Once they finished taking the order of the man directly ahead of me, I proceeded forward to place my order, but as I did, both employees walked away to do other things—without even acknowledging my presence. As I stood there, annoyed at this point, I watched at least 6 more employees walk by me without speaking, looking at me, or asking to take my order. Not good.
Now, I’ve had things like this happen before in situations where no one else in the restaurant...
