i'd rather have tako anyday! with a chili-miso sauce. yummmmy.
and since this is the rambling thread, the guy at starbucks in barnes&noble last nite asked me 3 times if i had a membership card. all within the two minutes it took for the transaction. LAME is the only way i can describe it.

i give him my frappucino order and he asks, "do you hava membership card?"
I say, "no"
he turns around to tell the other girl what to make. he then turns around to me and says, "do you have a membership card?"
i say, "no"
i pay the bill, then elicit walks up to me, still standing at the cashier, with a bottled drink. i hand it to him and he asks, "do you have a membership card?"
i look at him like WTF?!? he hands me my change and thanks me and we leave. his facial expression never changed like he was embarassed or like he made a dumb comment. maybe it's a game he and the other workers play.
So i pick up lunch today at Nico's. the order was already called in. i tell the cashier my name. she brings out the food. i pay the bill and she asks me my name so she can note it down to call me up later to pick it up. i tell her i already got my food and she gave me this astonished look. puzzling. just puzzling.

When you say the same ol lines everyday a thousand times a day...sometimes you get stuck on auto pilot...somewhere out there in la la land.
On a side note, I'm required to ask people the same question like at least 3 times in each sales presentation so it could be that they are really pushing the membership? hahaha course...I'd like to think I use a little more creative ways of asking it, and I talk to people for hours and not just 30 seconds. I dunno kent...maybe next time you should just leave your name at Nicos and pick more up later lol
