An Improvement of Subway's
Jerry Sauk
I do, the dumb stoned teen or elderly cashier always forgets to hand me my
cup for the soda. Which is always a acquired event because then I have to
remind him to hand it over to me. I can't understand WHY they forget so
often, it should be automatic because they do it so many times a day.
At Subway, at least a year ago they made the improvement of moving the cups
in FRONT of the register, so now the customer just grabs his own cup
(selecting the approptirate size) when he pays for the food, thus
eliminating the difficult task of the teen to remember to pick it up and
hand it over.
This solves many majar problems and all fast-food places should adapt it.
Congratulations to Subway.

The topic of "Jerry's opinions on Subway" was ordered CLOSED when Jerry
said he was no longer on the Subway diet.
Jerry, please do not violate the rules of the group.

It's become second nature for me to check my order before leaving
the counter or the drive-up window. Most fast-food employees are
teenagers, and most teenagers lack the life experience and therefore
the self-discipline to pay sufficient attention to what they're doing
to get orders right. That's especially true of the girls, most of
whose already-limited mental capacity is taken up with giggling and
socializing with their fellow employees.
Then there are the ethnics, whose grasp of Western quizeen is somewhat
rudimentary. "Hel-LOOO! Excuse me, Fong, but could I please have some
syrup with my McDonalds pancakes? A spork with which to eat them would
be nice, too, if it isn't too much trouble."
There was a McDonalds in Sacramento where I stopped to get some breakfast
at the drive-up window a couple of times on my way to work. Both times,
the windowdroid took my payment and asked me to pull forward. Both times,
I sat there for ten minutes while several other customers drove up behind
me, got their food and drove off. Both times, I got out of my car, walked
back to the window and asked where the hell my food was. Both times, the
idiots had lost my order.
On the third visit, I was going to refuse to pull forward after paying
for my food. I was going to block the drive-up window until I got my
stuff. But a funny thing happened. When I pulled into the drive-through
lane on that third morning, the building was dark. The franchise had
gone out of business -- presumably due to incompetence.

The obvious explanation is that they're retards.

What is an "acquired event"? Really, I speak English, and this term
makes no sense.

This must be an individual store policy. I have been in several
Subways in the last two months, and the cups are kept behind the
counter. That is not an issue with me, as I order a sandwich, and do
not order a fountain drink. Even if I had, and not received a cup, I
could simply remind the counter drone and get a cup. A minor
inconvenience, not a major (not majar, Jerry) problem.
Really Jerry, you seem to get upset about some very trivial matters.

You're not supposed to be drinking soda anyway, numb-legs. Try water,
like I do!
But I know what you mean. At Costco, some of the cashiers have a bad
habit of putting the hot dog inside the soda cup. WTF? I know they
use gloves and all and Costco is clean, but I don't need any residual
hot dog grease on the inside of my cup.
Here is a riddle for all you Fifth-Meal Tubbies and Fast Food
Addicts. Most FF places allow free refills, right? So even if you
get a small soda you can drink as much soda as you want. That said, I
still see a lot of people inside FF places with their 64 ounce Tubs o'
Soda. Why? Are they so innumerate that they can't figure out they
can get the same amount of soda cheaper? Or is it simply too much
trouble to waddle to the soda machine to refill the small size soda
cup?

That's "awkward" event. My spell-checker is a POS. That's why I never
use it.

Well that was a retorical question, but nevertheless your answer is
usually right.

If think it's only in the store's that are renovated. You know with the
larger stores, poster's of the food, widescreen tv's and so on.
The old-style store's still hand you a cup when they remember to.

Because they can fill it up right before they leave. One 64 filled
two/three/four times ounce is cheaper then two smaller one's, and it's a
hell of lot easier to handle just one cup. Hopefully it fits in your car
holder though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All spell checkers are junk. You *must* proofread *after* the spell checker
is done with it's dirty work.
The only spell checker I approve of is contained in Windows Live mail. It
underlines in red any misspelled words, in realtime. (it just underlined
"realtime")
There is no grammar checker, and that you are sorely in need of Jerry.
It's really not all that difficult to type out what you want to say, go back
to the top and read it to yourself (without moving your lips).
Most errors will be glaringly evident if you speak English on a daily basis.

Yeah, my wife agrees with you Jerry. She says, "If you're gross that way,
it's a better way to go."
Personally, I could deal with one 32 oz cup of unsweet tea for the entire
meal. Why the fuck *anyone* would desire to slug down 128 ounces or more of
that sugar laden crap you drink is beyond me.
4 refills! 256 fucking oz of soda!?!?!?
Do you ever lie awake in bed at night fondling the dick you haven't seen in

It's not a rule, just a dietary recommendation.
If you keep eating so much and drinking so much soda, your legs will
grow progressively more numb until they have to be amputated.

I missed Jerry's gaffe the first time, but he did answer the question
in a way: the reason they order large drinks is that it's important
to the tubsters to be able to carry away with them the maxim possible
volume of sugar water -- nevermind that they could drink as much as
they want inside the restaurant simply by refilling the small sized
container.
God-DAMN what a lot of oinkers!

If you never use it, why are blaming it? Do you think it magically
converted "awkward" to "acquired" even without being used?

And this is why you have Type 2 diabetes, Jerry.
When I was your age, there were few (if any) "free refill" dispensers.
And now I usually drink water with my fast food. About every 4th or 5th
visit I get a combo meal, with the small drink. Which I rarely refill.
I sometimes get the "Polish sausage and soda" special for $1.49 at
Costco. I usually don't finish the soda, and of course this means no
refill.
The idea of people getting a "64" and drinking all that sugar water
while they are eating, probably refilling it, and then topping it off
before leaving....whew. No wonder America is facing an epidemic of
obesity, heart disease, and leg amputations.
128 ounces of sugar water, enough to send even Jerry into a diabetic
coma.

This bit about refilling a 64 "two/three/four times" ought to make it
into the Book of Saukisms in some way.

Check the math on this. It's usually cheaper to order just the "entree"
and fries, separately, than to order the combo meal...assuming one does
not want a soda at all.
Since I sometimes am in the mood for fries, I do this.
But my usual order is of two entrees, e.g., a Jumbo Jack and the two
tacos deal, or a dollar menu burger and dollar menu chicken sandwich,
and water. I can get fueled-up, relatively healthily, for under $2.50.
(And, while I weigh 220 pounds, I generally feel "full enough" after
two of these entree items.)
An exception I make to this ordering strategy is the one I use at
In-N-Out. There, I just say "what the hell!" and order the special that
is a Double Double, fries, and a drink. Still, I don't refill the
drink. I usually do In-N-Out on road trips to and from Southern
California, so it's a kind of special treat.

Isn't there a way to get around that? Not that it effects me anyway I
usually order an extra fries on the side. I have to eat them first becouse
they get cold the fastest.

I never said I do it personally. I just offered a suggestion.
Personally whenever I actually go into the store I order a large (the
largest size that fit in my car), filled it once at the beginning of the
meal, emptied it at about the half-way mark and when there isn't a lot of
people getting soda I'll fill it again during the meal, and after the meal
it's usually not empty yet but I'll fill it again to the top for the road
unless I'm going to get a mocha IMMEDIATELY (LIKE NEXT-DOOR) for dessert.

Windows XP Ultimate (by Johnny). Sorry, my 1.5 ghz machine with a 400 mhz
FSB and 1 gb of ram just doesn't have the horsepower for Vista.
This OS is more like a hybrid of XP and Vista with all the functionality of
XP retained.
It's a 4 gig DVD to install, so it takes considerably longer than the
standard XP Pro, but it's worth it IMO.

No, I never said I dumped it, I just refilled it back up to the top from
wherever it was at. So I actually get about 2 1/2 cups fulls of soda.
Because if I have to drive aways to get my Mocha, then I'll have soda to
drink for the trip. But if there's a starbucks right next door then I don't
need to. (my car only has four cup holders)

Why would it be "awkward' to simply request the cup for your drink:?
And why would your "speller checker" have flagged awkward and not have
flagged "approptirate" or "majar" ?
I don't think you are being perfectly honest here, Jerry.

Jerry, Jerry, Jerry,
Refilling a soda two times is theft. I figure you paid for one soda,
not three. But what do I know, I'm not a cop.
Profit margins in a food enterprise are small enough without
parasites refilling their soda cups unlimited times.

You know, you don't have to eat the burger end-to-end. Once I get just a
little past half-way I turn the burger and switch to corner-to-corner so I
can specifically avoid that problem. And I end up with meatless bun less
then the size of a dime, which I can easily eat or cheaper to throw out.

of the loop here. See, in my dimensional reality we eat ONE meal "at a
time", with plenty of things called "hours" in between. We use hours to
measure "time". We use time to analyze relationships between certain
phenomena, such as "hunger" and "fullness" as they pertain to food
consumption. This notion of packing 2-4 meals into your car at once and
driving them around is foreign to me. Do you drive a Delorian? Please
help me, and perhaps some other dimensionally challenged fools here,
read your mind.

Maybe your area has a different system, but out here in my part of
California they have various combo meals.
In fact, the last meal I had a JitB I ordered a combo, because I felt
like having curly fries and a soda. So I ordered the combo built around
a Jumbo Jack, fries, and soda, and paid the small upgrayyed
(ObIdiocracy) fee to get the curly fries.
For my soda, strawberry. Refills available, but I didn't even finish
the middling-sized cup.

You're really losing it, Batman.
I'll tell you what actually working does for a person. Today, under
blue skies and 73 degree weather, I got in one of my cars and headed
south. Lunch was calamari at Phil's Fish Market, in Moss Landing. Oh,
and I had water with my squid. Then a walk along the beach to the
breakwater. Then on to the new Recreational Equipment store further
south, then a stroll through scenic Monterey, where a Farmer's Market
was operating today.
And I've been able to do this each and every day, as I wish, since
1986. This is what working my butt off in my 20s and into my 30s allows
me to do. Every day. You ought to try it sometime.
Speaking of work, you're the one who should be worried about earning a
living. And yet here you are, babbling and spewing insults and issuing
pronouncements about how you have "Ordered this subject CLOSED."
Barred from Taco Bell, fired from carting the hospital's medical waste
to the incinerator, filling up your 64 ounce Super Biggie Gulp with
sugar water, and wondering if your numb legs will be what some other
shlub has to cart down to the incinerator someday soon.
But then you take another swig of your Super Biggie Gulp, run your life
through your spell checker, and open up that third pizza of the night.

I really loved JitB's Chicken Club Salad. Chicken, grape tomatoes, red
onion slices, broccoli florets, croutons, shredded cheddar cheese, bacon
bits, toasted almonds served with a bacon ranch dressing. It was kind of
pricey, I think it was about $5.99, but I always got 2 - 3 meals out of it
if I didn't put the salad dressing on the whole thing (which we all know
wilts lettuce). Sometimes I really miss JitB. Sigh.

He's right. I also have noticed that you don't always know if they are
filling the drink or if they have a soda machine in the dining area
unless you do a quick walk-thru first. The difference is only $.20

You've been retired since 1986? I didn't realize I was dealling with a

Except the following: Soda is not sugar water. It doesn't even half sugar
in it at all, it's corn syrop. And even if it WAS real sugar, then it's
STILL not just sugar because they add many multiple other flavar's to each
different soda, that's why they all taste different.
This is relevent to fast-food discussion because Soda is the staple drink of
fast-food-culture.

It's sugar water. Sucrose, fructose, glucose, corn syrup...all
basically the same thing. Slight differences. Corn syrup is primarily
glucose. (And even someone as uneducated as yourself has probably heard
of terms like "glucose tolerance" and "glycemic index" in connection
with diabetes and diet.) And for people needing sugar in their
bloodstream, a "glucose drip" is the usual solution. That is, sugar in
its purest form, exactly what your Super Duper Biggie Gulpie is giving
you massive amounts of.
And the "artificial flavors" constitute a trivial fraction, by volume
or weight, of the basic sugar water.
In fact, the difference in taste between cane sugar (sucrose) Coke and
corn syrup (glucose) Coke is small enough that most people never
noticed when Coke switched from sucrose to glucose.
You really need a basic 9th grade science education. You're just plain
ignorant.

Yes, and your ignorance about such a basic thing as sugared water
drinks is notable.

_Many_ things you think are so are not.
By the way, Jerry, I had my first ARPANet account when I was an
undergraduate, first used an early version of the Usenet when I was 32,
and got an early version of a "available to non-university,
non-corporate" users when I was 36, in 1988. (Prior to that, prior to
the Great Realignment, "Internet Service Providers" basically did not
exist. There was FIDONet, and around the same time a primitive version
of America On-Line, but not much else. My ISP was Portal
Communications, one of the earliest.)

Okay fine. Admit I don't want to argue this because I don't know all the
science behind it. Not to mention it's off-topic. But I know for a fact
that Corn Syrup comes from CORN, not sugar.
Like I said I don't know all the science behind it all so I can't argue the
topic.

No, Batman, you yourself said that the issue of sugar water is "central"
to what you called "the fast-food culture."
You can't change the rules now.

Did you not study chemical changes in high school? Did you never think
that sugars are harvested from a variety of starches, including beets,
cane, and many other kinds of fruits and vegetables?

Then why did you just try to claim that corn syrup is not sugar because
it is made from "CORN"?
Do you think Karo syrup comes from the Karo plant and is not sugar?
Finally, use your taste buds. Do your sodas taste sugary? Do they give
you that special numb tingling in your legs as the sugar rush messes
with your insulin and as your leg circulation drops?
Yep, that's sugar you're craving, Batman.
