| - How many Subway employees does it take to make a sandwich?
In the mail this month we received an entire page full of the same Subway coupon: buy one 6 " sub plus any drink, get one 6" sub free. Basically this equates to a whole month's worth of buy one get one free eating, so how could we resist?
We were headed to an outdoor concert in the park and stopped in to pick up some healthy sandwiches. Our visit starts off by being cut off in the parking lot for a front-row-joe parking spot.. oh well I can always use the exercise... turns out the guy wasn't even going to Subway so I am not sure why he needed that exact spot. When we walked in there was guy #1 behind the counter helping a foreign couple with their order. There was guy #2 sweeping the empty restaurant. We weren't greeted for a while because guy #1 behind the counter was overwhelmed trying to understand the order of the couple in front of us. They didn't speak English very well and had strange requests like adding an egg to their turkey sandwiches - but just one egg, split between two sandwiches.. he kept thinking they were trying to order an omelet.
We didn't even realize there was a 3rd employee because he was hiding in the back, apparently too busy to come and help up. We weren't too upset about the wait, more humored by the strange order from the folks in front of us. Finally guy #1 behind the counter yells, "Hey, what's your name?" Guy #2 sweeping responds back with his name. Guy #1 then yells, "You wanna come helps these two?" To which guy #2 sweeping says, "Yeah, just a sec." We wait while he finishes sweeping and then washes his hands. He comes around the counter apologizes for the wait and takes our order. But it's apparent he's new because he doesn't know the names of the sandwiches (didn't understand when I ordered a black forest ham and turkey) and gets confused about how much meat comes on it, etc. He has to ask the guy #3 in the back for assistance. It was quite the process! We finally get our sandwiches made and I hand over the coupon. Guy #1 tells me the sandwich and drink are both free, but gets confused entering the coupon and also has to ask guy #3 for help. Turns out the drink was not free, so we buy the drink, take our sandwiches and walk out shaking our heads at what a hassle it was.
I'm sure we'll be back to use another coupon this month, but I'll make sure it's not on a day that I'm in a hurry.
