Is that a Combo?

She said - I said "no- just the burger and drink" and so the confusion began!

I had a really tough morning and was looking for comfort food. I made a choice (not the best one but what can I say) to have a cheeseburger for lunch - but not the fries!! That way I could reason I had made at least one good choice.

I drove up to the window of the burger joint and ordered a cheese burger, no lettuce and tomatoe and a diet coke please. She said "that will be $7.29 at the next window please." (i was not at the cheap burger joint as you can see)

I went to the next window and she said "the combo is on special and will be much cheaper". So I said - "ok I'll have the combo but i dont want the fries." She said "i cant do that, so you want onion rings or a ceasar salad?" I said "really all i want is the burger and the drink - but i would like to pay the combo price" (the savings was almost a dollar) She said she wasnt allowed to do that. So I said"ok change my order to cheeseburger combo, no lettuce, no tomatoe and no fries"

She didnt' think that was funny. I told her she could give me the fries if she must but that i would throw them out at the end of the drivethru. At that the other woman at the window said - we'll charge you for the combo!

Now wasnt that the silliest situation! All i really wanted was a burger and a coke!
