It's the age of sandwich incompetence. We have a daily office pool on the results of the "No mayonnaise please" request for our take out lunches. I like a little mayo, but not two snow shovels full per sandwich, so I order "No mayo please." I guess the chefs figure I don't know what I want, so they swab the mayo on there anyway.

The other mildly annoying ordering tactic - running the full gamut of every possible additional food and condiment option after I've finished ordering, and said "that's all." I know what I want, and I just ordered it. Why take inventory of the sandwich prep table?

On the other hand, I agree with you boomer - I never F* with the people who handle my food or my mail. Ask any cop friends about ordering food. The ones I know usually don't. They're on the "No thanks, I'm on the 'No Loogies For Me Today' diet."
