Evil Eyes are Rolling

Lately I cannot even order lunch without aggravating a hapless clerk. But I maintain my innocence. I mean, I’m sorry that preparing a to-go bread and soup bowl at Au Bon Pain takes about two minutes, but really, shouldn’t Au Bon Pain smooth out this process so that I’m not the target of everyone’s quiet loathing? And if Sebastians had stipulated on their menu that “hold the lettuce, extra tomatoes” costs .75, then I could have saved the cashier a lot of grief (you’d think people making 8 dollars an hour would be sympathetic to my outrage). And Cosi sandwich lady, maybe I could have been a little more adamant when I said “No ham, please.” I know it’s pretty chaotic and loud. But is it really that big of a deal to make me another sandwich? I’m smiling and agreeable. Why are you looking at me like I’m the Anti-Christ?
