Ordering food at a fast-food drive-thru can be challenging. The speaker systems have come a long way, but there are still those occasional times when there are communication difficulties between the customer and the restaurant employee. Here's a sample of one of those instances from a few years ago:
Drive-thru guy: Order when you're ready.
Doug: I'd like a senior coffee with cream.
Drive-thru guy: How many creams?
Doug: One
Drive-thru guy: How many creams?
Doug (leaning out the car window): One
Drive-thru guy: HOW MANY CREAMS?
Doug (now hanging half-way out the car window): ONE!!!
Drive-thru guy gives us our order total and tells us to pull around to the window.
When we arrive at the window, we find the guy inside laughing.
He says: I thought you were saying "What?"
