What do Tina Fey and Mexican Food have in common? Good question, I will be getting to that in a bit. Last Thursday I had the worst craving for chips and salsa so on my way home from work I called up my fave Mexican restaurant and placed my usual order for a chicken fajita chimichanga a la carte, a medium salsa, and a medium white queso. No prob. I get that ALL THE TIME.
Wellllllll, apparently there was a new girl working and thought I wanted chili con queso (gross) and chicken fajitas so I repeated my order again and she said she had it. YAY!
I got to the restaurant 15 minutes later and when I went to pick up my food she handed me a HUGE box and told me my total was $40. WTF??? My order comes in a small bag and usually costs $12. I was very confused. So I asked if she had the right order (wasn’t confusing me for someone else) and she said sure “you ordered chicken fajitas, a chicken chimichanga meal, a medium chili con queso, a small salsa, and a small white queso right? Ummmm…no.
I calmly told her she was confused and repeated my correct order. She said she would go to the back herself and get it. Poor girl comes back out and has a bag with a medium white queso and a medium salsa and that’s it. I asked where my chimichanga is and she pointed to the box. I asked her to please get it out because I wasn’t paying for all of that food that I didn’t order. Well, girl got mad and I called the manager over. I explained what happened and told him I just wanted my food and I would happily go home. Guy felt bad for me (I may or may not have pulled the “I worked 13 hour today and I just want my freaking chimichanga, queso, and salsa and I want to go home!” card) and gave me ALL the food for $12.
OOPS! All I could think when I got in my car was…
Yes, I may have been a bitch but I got my food and went home. End of story.
I love you Tina Fey.
And Mexican food.
haha! good for you girl! you are right bitches get stuff done, but i don’t think you were very bitch haha!
You’re not a bitch. Mexican food is serious business. Plus it’s not unreasonable to want what you ordered at the correct price!
I don’t think this was bitchy at all. No reason why you should have to pay for all $40 of that food! And now I really want some queso and chips! Dangit!
Too Funny! But seriously only wanting the food you ordered isn’t being bitchy.
Can Bitches Get Shit Done be our #BBC motto? I’m gonna tweet that too FYI.
Oh man, I would have been so irritated at the girl as well! I also saw Admission this weekend (without seeing any previews, my grandma picked the movie) and I LOVED it! It wasn’t at all what I expected (based on the types of movies my grandma typically picks) but I was super impressed with the story, the acting…everything. It was great! :)
I can be pretty fierce when people screw up my order. You go girl! LOL.
Ha, too funny!! I had the same thing happen to me when I ordered sushi for Valentines–the price seemed really high and I couldn’t figure out why and later found out she’d doubled both orders. I ended up getting the extra food for free so it wasn’t too bad of a deal :D
Love it!! Glad to hear you liked Admission. I really want to see it!! Paul Rudd plus Tina Fey is a win all around :)
AHHH yes. best post ever! and I finally understand why it’s our BBC motto now. SCORE.
