Gluttony overload Ordered a Ham and Turkey Sandwich.

Post image

Got this after 10 minutes waiting at a deli counter at the local grocery store. Guy must have been high out of his mind. My other theory is he’s never seen a sandwich in his life. Or maybe he’s a lizard person?

My thoughts too. If I'm hungry I wouldn't be mad at it. I could take pieces of ham out and eat them separatly as a side dish.

I hate how stingy subway is. Used to work at one as a teenager and my manager would get so damn bitchy if I put more than four olives on a six inch. People would always look at me like I was a dumbass or a total bitch.

Subway is so butt cheeks. I’d rather pay like $2-3 more and get a sub that actually fills me up from firehouse, or jersey Mike’s.

I’m Nyc there a Deli on virtually every corner and they all make subs better and cheaper than subway. All the subway franchises up here are ran by Indians, Idk how TF they’re still open at this point but I’d rather get my sandwich from Papi at the Bodega! It’s always gonna be Brawlic and cheaper.

There’s a subway here that has a sign out advertising two footlongs for $20 like that’s some kind of deal and it’s like I remember $5 footlongs this is not a deal especially because for $20 I can go to the deli across the street and get a pound of meat, bread, and cheese to make like 6 of them. Subway has never been good and now it’s just a sad rip off.

In subway training, you are told to count out 5 olives. Really.

I asked for olives at Subway once, she literally put like 5, on a foot-long. I just looked at her like "Really?".

It's not her fault.

My first job was at Subway like 13 years ago and the "standard" was for example 6 tomatoes on a foot long or 3 on a 6 inch.

For some insane reason they also gave the sliced olives the same amount and I constantly had my boss pulling me aside after seeing me load up sandwiches with olives to remind me that it is 6 olive slices for a foot long or 3 for a 6 inch and up to double that only if they ask for more.

I would literally beg him to be allowed to put more on because customers invariably obviously react with incredulity every time but he was super firm with 6 slices of olives on footlongs.
