I finally got my load picked up. It's a bunch of D9 dozer parts headed for South America. I'll deliver them at the port in Jacksonville, FL tomorrow and then head home for a week or so.
I'm stopped at a truckstop to have a bite of lunch before moving on down the road. I'm in no real hurry now as I am only 5.5 hours from Jacksonville. The waitress came to take my order. I asked for the small ribs platter. She picked up the menu and showed me their new full rack of ribs "special" and asked if I was sure I didn't want that instead. I said no, I'll have what I asked for. When I said no she immediately asked "Why not?"
At this point I am beginning to get irritated. I informed her that I want the platter I requested as it is only $10 and I really don't feel the need to pay $15 for a full rack of ribs for lunch.
I am sure they are supposed to try and sell the new menu items and I can understand that. But she crossed the line when she decided to argue with me about it. Just give me what I asked for and leave me the hell alone. Geez.
