Language Barrier at National Restaurant Chain

[Rapid HotClean]

So right now I'm at a national fast food chain. When I placed my order it went like this.

Counter Gal: "Your name?"

Me: Ted

She: "Tim?"

Me: No, Ted

She: "Tarn?"

Me: That'll work

She: "You want to work here?"

Me: No, I want to eat here and my name is Tarn

The food's good

haha " That'll work" sounds exactly like something I would say after not wanting to repeat my name for the 5th time.

You want to work here? Strange question.

Panda Express?

I love when, after getting my meal, I say "thanks", and they say YEP.

I love when, after getting my meal, I say "thanks", and they say YEP.

Mike, I tried to stop by, but too much traffic. The bridge was open, but there were guys all over the place lying on their swords and I couldn't get through. LOL

Hey Tarn, do you know if they are hiring?

 

[Rapid HotClean]

Hey Tarn, do you know if they are hiring?

Not sure Ted.

That was the same conversation I had everywhere I went in Miami Ted.
