Doom Metal Alchemist Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 So I pull up to the speaker and get ready to give my order, when the employee does the inevitable "Hi, welcome to blah blah, would you like to try our blah blah?" And for the first time in my whole life, what the employee asked me if I wanted to order ACTUALLY WAS WHAT I INTENDED TO ORDER. Maybe I should buy a powerball ticket today. 1 3

cyberbully Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 I see what you're saying, that's a hell of a coincidence (unless there is a promotion for what you ordered going on) but it sound luckier for the cashier than it was for you...So maybe they should get the lottery ticket.

Why is it lucky for them, do they get paid extra if I say, "why yes, I will try that, thank you for that recommendation."? I thought it was cool because their "would you like to try so and so" schpeel always annoys me a bit and for once it didn't annoy me.

But it's lucky for him because I'm sure he hears no all the time...Hearing yes would kinda perk him up.....Well, I guess it'll perk me up because I used to be that guy and when someone says "yes I would like to try your new fried zucchini" it felt good for some reason. Not sure how it made you lucky thoug, but I guess you didn't have to worry about them fucking it up since they offered it....Or something....This makes my head hurt. Go buy that ticket, don't listen to me.... Now wtf is a schpeel.....You don't have to answer because I'm gonna google it, but I want the question out there because idk wtf that is. 1
cyberbully Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 OH, spiel.....Which I guess can also be spelled schpiel.....schpeel fucked me all the way up, but not because you misspelled it...I had never heard of schpiel either. All I knew was spiel. 1

All I knew was spiel. I took a complete shot in the dark how to spell that. I think it's a German word, but regardless of what language it comes from, I have no knowledge of said language.

tsar4 Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 I thought you were going to say you got what you ordered...but that's just crazy talk.

Usually that only (but very frequently) becomes a problem when I try to order a sandwich "plain." When I was a kid every fast food worker in America understood a "plain" sandwich meant meat and bun and literally nothing else. I don't know what the fuck happened in the intervening years but no one knows what "plain" means anymore.

Nice to know pod6 is still jerks but just think of it as taking the advice from this one old guy I met at a bus stop once. Always do 5 at a time. I don't remember his reasoning for it but he was a pimp in the 70's and still had a hand full of big ol rings on each finger so the advice is legit 1

Azalar Hex Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 What's really fun is when you say OK to their recommendation and a completely different voice asks what the recommendation was due to the fact you were replying to a recording. 1

I used to work at a Wendy's, and yes, they get paid little bonuses for successfully selling extra shit.
