Steak Tips Shenanigans

June 26, 2012

OMG...I totally don't know where my brain is today. I am going to blame it on sleep deprivation and stress and being so fricken cold in this office that every muscle hurts (yes, I'm blaming THAT on the cold and not my age or the fact that I don't exercise--shut up). So, I was brought a list of lunch orders this morning and asked to place the order. I do this on a regular basis so this isn't a big deal at all. Although there are LOTS of places to eat in Montgomery, there aren't too many places that deliver, so it's usually either Chappy's or Steak-Out for this crew. When they answer the phone, we go over ALL of the who, what, when, where and all of that before we get to the order. Then, I'm on the third order down and I say that So & So wants Steak-Tips (med well) w/ blah, blah, blah.... and he says, "We don't have steak tips." I pause, looking at the list that everyone wrote with steak tips and I'm like..."You don't have STEAK TIPS?" And he goes, "We have Steak Teriyaki but no Steak TIPS." And STILL not realizing what the crap I've done...I'm like..."But we order them ALL the time!" And then, I go...."OMG...can I call you back?" And he's like, "Are you sure?" And I'm like...."Yeah...positive. I'm SO sorry." It went a little smoother when I called Steak-Out. Think I got a new gray hair out of that one. Someone must have swapped out my regular coffee with decaf or something today and payback's a b*tch!
