j: think you can appreciate this story about freezing up when ordering. Went to the new Foodland after my doc. Hoo da big and da people and da lines! Anyway went to the HI Steak section and waited like 15 minutes in line. Take long time cuz gotta weight all the portions and only get one guy weighing and then slicing the steak or chicken. Lots of ppl ordering the different combo plate lunch but I wanted it for dinner so just wanted portions, not the plate. So I told the guy I wanted one piece each steak and chicken. He then said, we sell it by the pound. For some reason that nevah penetrate this makule brain. So I repeated again, one piece, etc. He then repeats to me his stuff. Finally it penetrates and now I choke up. One piece = how many lbs? I dunno, I can't visualize. So I blurted 1 lb steak, 1/2 lb. chicken. Finally get to the slicer dude, there's a tall plastic partition so hard to talk so I gotta tip toe. I saw how little the portions I chose and told the slicer instead of only a half a chicken I want the whole thing. He just nodded and smiled and nevah do nothing. It's kinda loud there. Then he new food came out and he was busy slicing and weighing again. So little while latahz he came back to my food and I tip toe and start yelling again. I am now holding up the entire line. So shame, but finally I got what I wanted and just wen hele outta there. I thought Jalna will enjoy this story. -N
