Subway Menu Choices

I was at Subway today with a couple of work pals who had read my previous post about what people do in queues. Problem with subway is that you not only have the choice of what you want on your sandwich, but also what sort of bread, salad and sauce.

The issue I had was that these parts aren't listed on the menu board, so it is only when you get to be served that you see the selection. This caused much hilarity for them as I stood flustered with the choice of breads. Luckily they had a sticker on the counter with what the selections actually were, so I didn't have to resort to pointing.

Queues at food places – use the time wisely

I like to use the time that I spend in the queue at a food outlet to peruse the menu and work out what I would like. I might also make sure my wallet is within reach. The person in front of me always seems to only notice the menu when the get to the counter to be served. They then have to ask about every item, and then check every available space in a purse, backpack or man-bag for cash.

What were you doing in the queue ? Working on a solution for world peace or a cure for cancer???
