If you want a terrible Subway Sandwich <\/a>experience, I suggest you come visit the one nearest our home. I swear everytime I leave it that I’m never going back again but –\u00a0wouldn’t you know it? – it’s so darn close to our house I can’t resist. It’s so close, in fact, that people park in front of our house to go to it.<\/p>\n

Today, there was once again only one employee, the iced tea was not brewed, and the keys for the restroom were disgustingly sitting on the counter. My wife began ordering her meal, and then had to stop and say, “Hello?” to get the sandwich artist to snap back into reality. We ordered a small pizza for Isla, and when he asked how we wanted it sliced, Jennifer said to slice it into six pieces. He did this by cutting it in half (2 pieces), then half again (4 pieces), then sliced two of the pieces in half again. We had to stifle a laugh as there were now four tiny pieces and two large pieces. So Jennifer asked him to go ahead and make it eight pieces.<\/p>\n

Then we were overcharged. I noticed this only after paying. For some reason, we were charge $4.50 for the $4.00 pizza. So I went back up to the counter.<\/p>\n

ME: Hey, you charged us four-fifty and your sign says the pizza is only four bucks.<\/p>\n

HE: Yeah, that’s just the computer, I can’t do anything about that.<\/p>\n

ME: Well that’s false advertising. I agreed to pay you four dollars, not four fifty.<\/p>\n

HE: That’s probably the tax.<\/p>\n

ME: No, tax on four dollars is nowhere near fifty cents. Besides, the tax is listed here, at the bottom of the receipt.<\/p>\n

HE: Well I can’t change the price.<\/p>\n

ME: Well I need my money back. (I pointed to his tip jar.) Should I just take it out of here?<\/p>\n

HE: No that’s my money.<\/p>\n

ME: Yeah, but you stole mine.<\/p>\n

HE: Hang on. (He then helps another customer, then pops open the cash register and hands me fifty cents.)<\/p>\n

ME: Fifty-three cents.<\/p>\n

HE: What?<\/p>\n

ME: I need fifty-three<\/em> cents. Look at the receipt, I was taxed on that fifty cents.<\/p>\n

HE: Really?<\/p>\n

ME: Yeah.<\/p>\n

He then stared at the cash register again as if it was about to bite him, and then reached into the tip jar and handed me three cents.<\/p>\n

This is nowhere near the worst experience I’ve had at this Subway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
