Rudeness at the Chipotle!

First of all, this one ain't about the employees. They my peoples. This is about the customers. Especially the rude ho who was in the line behind me. I'm lucky I'm not in a jail cell right now, 'cause that little skank nearly set me off! I'm so mad I gotta get this out before I can even eat my food!

Once per week on Thursday, one of us in the office has to go out to pick up lunch for everyone. It's my turn, so I decided on Chipotle, since it's nice and quick. I had everyone email their orders into my Blackberry, and I went around and collected up all the money.

I headed up into the Chipotle around 12:10, and luckily there were only three people in line. They moved through pretty quick. I warned the order taker guy that I had a bunch of orders, and he said go ahead.

As I went through the first few I realized how specific they were in their emails about what they wanted. That's a pain because you gotta deal with the tortilla guy, then the girl who adds in the fillings. Also, it took me a while because I had to click on each emailed order one at a time to read it out to them.

Somewhere around the 12th order I heard the girl behind me let out a big sigh. I glared at her and said "I'm sorry!". But that wasn't good enough. She was like, "Y'know, you coulda just faxed that order in!". I said, "I didn't feel like it, bitch, so fall back!". I must have yelled because the chihuahua she had in her tote bag suddenly popped his head out and growled at me.

So I turned my back on her and continued with my last 6 orders. The line was growing, but at least I was almost done. Then we got up to the register and I realized that I hadn't ordered for myself. By now there was a line of about 20 people, but what can I do about it? I gotta eat!

I had the guy at the register get them to make me up a burrito, and he did, but it must have confused him because he rang up some of my stuff wrong. Also, I needed a few orders of salsa and chips. They put everything in boxes for me, and the supervisor came over to help him ring it up. I counted out all the cash, but was short, so I just paid with my credit card.

As I was leaving the register I turned to notice that everyone in the line was staring at me. These punks got they arms crossed and everything! I said, "Smile, assholes! Jesus loves y'all!" and stormed out the door with my boxes. Goddamn, I hate impatient people!

It's kinda rude to place 19 orders at lunch time, especially if you can call them in. I would have been pissed off at you and if you think about it I think you would have been pissed off at yourself if you had to wait in line for 19 orders from one person. Learn some manners, proper grammar, and some patience yourself.

You were the problem not the girl behind you.

OMG Jocelyn, you are absolutely right! Everyone is a pain in the ass but you! Of course you have the RIGHT to ask for 19 orders in the most inefficient way possible, while 20 other people wait in line. Don't they know they have to shift their schedule and wait hungry in line while you place your orders? I mean, what is wrong with these people? The world revolves around you. You are right, and they are wrong!

You're a bigot. If I was in line behind you, I would have tripped you on the way out. I hate people like you. Everyone had a reason to be mad at you. Learn some manners.

Back off, haters.

What, if the little princess and her fucking doggy-woggy get there and see 20 people ahead of her she gets to go to the front?

Ms. Testes-Harder was actually saving the planet by using one car instead of 20 people driving over, each with a car. As well as we live in a paperless world, people, whats with the fax machine antiquity?

To the commenter who whined about the Blackberry, clearly you ain't as advanced as we are down south... you some kinda yankee or sumpthin?

love you, J.

20 orders in line or in person would take just as long. Each person that emailed her is a customer as well.

I worked in foodservice for 20 years and there is NO right way to put an order in for twenty people at the last second.

You simply needed twenty burritos.

You ordered them.

If people don't want to wait in line, they shouldn't go out.

Jocelyn, when are you coming to our town? Santa Cruz needs some of your Southern sensibilities. I'll hook you up with a nice trailer next to my crack buddy, John.
Great stuff,

rofl! i was with you on the story bout her being a bitch for eyeballing you for ordering food, i mean everyones gotta order food and if you got a big order what else can you do about it right? but then the chick said you can fax it in. any reasonable person would go 'oh wow i didnt think of that ill have to remember next time' but no you flip her shit, call her a bitch, because shes the one wasting 20 other peoples time just because 'she felt like it' right? rofl, doll, jesus sure loves everyone, but its people like you that make him happy for karma.

Jocelyn, what you did rudely was use your plastic to pay them. As you know, that money has NO VALUE. You SHOULD HAVE paid in pennies. Hard metal. You got value in the food, they should get REAL MONEY in trade, don't you agree? And to be truly just, you could check each and every one for some really collectible wheat pennies.

I would have followed you out to the parking lot and pushed you and your food over. Always e-mail or fax those types of orders in!

You are a shining example of why southerners should not be permitted to vote.

Joc Teste you dirty little whore. What a pleasure it would be to make you a well-sauced burrito, stuffed with a dirty athletic sock and a crudely scrawled love note. While you gag on the carefully selected fillins, Chipotle's finest escorts you to the public restroom for a lesson in the 'mexican' definition of customer service. Heritage Pork!

Wow, Jocelyn I would absolutely have went off on you if I was in that line.
A) You could have compiled all the emailed orders into one list on one piece of paper.
B) While you had that list all on one piece of paper you could have faxed that on over. Most businesses have a fax machine, and even if you don't there are programs on the internet that would allow you to fax a word file over.
C) Lacking faxing over the list you would then have been able to hand it to the workers upon arrival making your entire trip take less time & not inconveniencing other people.

I'm sure that there's more to be added, but I'll leave you with this thought. Some people only have 30 minutes for lunch, and when someone is taking that long in the line ahead of them that lunch time goes right out the window. And if they're late then it's a write up and possible job discipline. So the next time you go out for food why not think a little and plan ahead some so as to be courteous to all those around you.

That's what phones are for. You see, one can call Chipotle, and many other restaurants, ahead of time with big orders so that you don't completely waste other people's lunch hours with your rambling 19x super-specific burrito orders. Go forth and be stupid & inconsiderate no more.
