My older brother worked at Subway this summer. Random things would happen sometimes, and he would post them on Facebook. This is "The Collection". There's some funny stuff, so keep reading.

*first shift at Subway*
*no one tells me that we have a new sandwich called "The Boss"*
Customer: hello there, could I get the boss?
Me: my manager is not here right now, sir.
Customer: ..wait, what? I want the boss.
Me: *nonplussed* I'm sorry sir, she's not here this evening.
Customer: I SAW THE COMMERCIAL FOR IT ON TV.
Me: *dazed and confused*
*co-worker stops laughing long enough to educate me on "The Boss."*
*day is saved. mostly.*

And now, a scene from the life of a Sandwich Artist:
Co-worker: *texting*
Me: *working*
Co-worker: *laughs*
Me: "What're you laughing at?"
Co-worker: "You work so hard. It's funny."
Me: "Ah. Hilarious."
Co-worker: *resumes texting*
Me: *resumes working*

Me: *making footlong sub*
Me: *cutting sub in half*
Customer: "Hey, could you cut that into four quarters?"
Me: *blinks*
Me: *blinks again*
Me: *deadpan* "How many quarters did you say?"
Customer: "Four quarters, please."
Me: "Four of them?"
Customer: *impatient* "Yes, four quarters. Please."
Me on the Inside: "HAH. GOOBER."
Me on the Outside: *cuts sub into quarters* "Have a good night, ma'am!"

Me: "Nah, don't wor-... wait, what?"

It's that time again. TIME TO WATCH DR. HORRIBLE'S SING-ALONG BLOG.
(That actually has nothing to do with the rest of the blog post, but somehow it seemed relevant)

Subway snippet of the day:
Customer: "Thank you."
Me: "My pleasure."
Customer: *stares straight into my eyes* *holds gaze* "No. MY pleasure."
Me: "I, uh.. you.. what? Erm, yes. Goodbye now."
[/endstory]

Just another day on that Subway grind:
Me: *making flatbread*
Me: "Do you want anything else?"
Customer: "That's a wrap."
Me: "LITERALLY. BAHAHAHAHA."
Customer: ". . ."
Me: "I've waited months for this moment."
Customer: "What?"
Me: "What."
