Jan. 7th, 2003 04:22 pmI tend to eat a lot at Subway. I used to always carry yogurt to work and eat that, but at some point, I stopped. Its allure left, soured, went south, whatever. So instead, I've fixated on Subway. They're everywhere; they're cheap enough; and if I go late enough, there's no waiting. Yes, their bread does suck, but so does every sandwich place except every Asian restaurant and grocery store in the city. Why they have nice crusty buns and no other sandwich shops do, I'll never know. You can wrap up an Asian crusty bun, stick it in the fridge over night, and it will still have some crust left the next day. I'm sure it is a miracle, but Subway can't do it even shortly out of the oven. Anyway, standing in line, the guy in front of me (I wasn't late enough) who was sneaking out a double sandwich, was clearly clueless although equally obviously had eaten at Subways before. He couldn't pick the bread. He couldn't pick the size of the bread. He couldn't pick the cheese. The guy behind the counter had to drag each piece of information out of him.
On my way back to the cubicle, I ranked the importance, order, and flow of ordering. I suspect I've been doing tech writing for too long.
