I believe because it is absurd


This just doesn't make sense

Just went to lunch with my boss and co-worker. We tried a new place -- Duke's Roadhouse Cafe in Addison. We were looking for a Blackeyed Pea type of place and this seemed, according to Dallas Guidelive, to be similar. Upon entering, however, we realized it was a little less homey-like and alot more sports bar like, but oh well, it still looked like it might have a chicken fried chicken meal to suit Derek.

I ordered the baked potato and Derek got his c-f-c. Mary, my boss, is on the Atkins Diet and wanted a hamburger, without the bun, and wanted to substitute the dinner salad for the french fries. They just couldn't do that. She'd have to pay a dollar upcharge.

Now I'm thinking a couple of leaves of iceberg lettuce and a tomato slice or two with a little ranch dressing for good measure couldn't possibly cost the restaurant more than a handful of french fries. And they could have saved and used the bun for another customer. But still, they wouldn't do it.

So, this was lose/lose. Mary didn't get what she really wanted and won't go back and the restaurant didn't get what they really wanted...repeat business in a competitive restaurant world.
