“Drive-Thru Frustrations” by my ten-year-old daughter.

Worker: Welcome to Burger Queen.  May I take your order?

Customer: Um… I’ll have a small drink, a triple cheeseburger, and Doc Flurry.

Worker: Sorry, we don’t have triple cheeseburgers or Doc Flurries.

Customer: Ok, I’ll have a Frapino and a Huge’n’Yummy— Ooh! And a bag of carrot dippers!

Worker: Ma’am, we don’t have any of that.

Customer: What?! Fine! I’ll have a Big Doc and a Doc Salad.

Worker: Ma’am, we don’t have any of that either.

Customer: You don’t have a very good selection!

Worker: Well, considering this is Burger Queen and not Doc Donald’s, we have a very good selection.  Now if you want to order something from our menu, it is to your left.

Customer: Fine, I’ll have a Freezie.

Worker: That’s not even on the Doc Donald’s menu! It’s on Whitney’s menu.

Customer: What happened to “The customer is always right”?

Worker: Ugh! You’re impossible!

Customer: Me? You are!

Worker: No, you!

Customer: You!

Worker: You.

Customer: Yo—

Worker: Do you want food or not?

Customer: Of course.

Worker: Good.  Then order something…

Customer: Fine. I’ll have a Doc Wrap.

Worker: …from the menu!

Customer: You know, I wanted fast food.  But this isn’t fast food.  Look how long your taking.

Worker: Why don’t you go to Doc Donald’s then?

Customer: That’s a good idea!  Could you direct me to the nearest Doc Donald’s?

Worker: Whatever.  Down the street and to your left.

    My comment last night seemed to be lost in limbo, and when I tried again I kept getting an error message stating that I was posting a duplicate comment! Anyway, I’m trying again, ’cause I wanted to say this is funny!

    Who’s more frustrated here — the restaurant worker, because the customer wouldn’t make an attempt to order from the menu, or the customer, because the worker wouldn’t suggest equivalent Burger Queen substitutes?

    Very cute story. VERY clever for a ten-year-old!
