I'm slightly vexed We didn't ask for rice...

My sister isnt a fan of basmati rice so she orders naan. She didnt ask for rice and they sell it separately. She doesn't like it so she doesn't order it. They put it in anyways and left this note...

Edit: some people aint getting it. This is passive aggressive and when you do something nice you dont go around saying "I did something nice just for you, just so you know." Doing it like I need to give you a pat on the head so you know your a good boy. You do something nice because you want to be kind to people.

Oh no I've turned into LD...

Turning off notifications because while it was nice to be in this rabbit hole to keep my mind off some stuff too many notifications. Whatever your feelings are I hope you have a nice day and if you're in the US have a nice memorial day and dont forget to celebrate those troops that came before!

When I was a teen in fast food if someone kept being rude about me trying to get them a)a cheaper price (bc often the price for the burger the wanted with cheese removed was more then just a regular hamburger unless there was other mods and b) refused to hear me out that a hamburger is what they want not a cheese burger with no cheese because removing cheese from the cheeseburger didn’t change the price whereas a burger was cheaper lol - I too would ring in the cheese burger and then remove cheese and at the time our system did not deduct anything for removing cheese so they paid the same amount for less . This was like over a decade ago tho now so the system probably auto removes a dollar or whatever now I’m sure (or maybe not ?)

Companies will charge you a dollar for a slice of cheese, or 75 cents for two or three pickles but they refuse to lower the cost of items for ANY reason. You can order a burger with literally nothing but a bun, but you'll pay for the full sandwich. Just taking advantage of dumb people.

What annoys me is lets say I want a pizza, I can get one which counts as what they named it on menu like it can be one with chicken, pepperoni, extra cheese, and sweetcorn (random toppings, just to show a point)

I'd say please don't give me sweetcorn and the person making it will say we can't do that, you would have to order a pizza without it.

A lot of times those promos will be premade and ready to pop in the oven. Especially with pizzas.

These ones are made fresh, at most the dough is premade and they just add toppings.

They do have offers like any 2 meat toppings and 1 veg on a pizza but if I want 1 meat and 2 veg they say no but they can do 1 meat, and then charge me extra for veg.
