KFC

Fast food is supposed to be a simple experience. Confusion reigns supreme here. The arrogance of the staff doesn’t help.
I stopped for a snack. Asked about the popcorn chicken and was shown a portion for $ 3.99. Great. I’ll have that. Nope, that’d be too easy. Instead, this absurd conversation ensues. Please enjoy. Preferably with real popcorn…
Me: Great, I’ll have the popcorn chicken. (pointing at the right side of the menu)
KFC: Would you like to add a drink for $ 1?
Me: $ 4.99 total… uh, sure, but what’s the difference between that and the fill up box (pointing at the left side of the menu board) for $ 5?
KFC: Nothing. Same thing.
Me: Ok, great, so I’ll have that (pointing back at the popcorn chicken at the right side) and a drink. Thanks.
KFC: Why are you pointing over there? (right side)
Me: Because you said there’s no difference. Same thing.
KFC: Now I’m confused.
Me: That makes two of us. You said it’s the same.
KFC: Same price, but the fill up box comes with a cookie and fries.
Me: For the same price.
KFC: Yes. Which one do you want?
Me: Are you serious? Which one do you think I want? They’re both the exact same price, but one comes with fries and a cookie.
KFC: I don’t know what you want, sir.
Fast food counter lifers, I guess. And all the while, the other girl is just standing there smirking. Classy.
