The Plight Of The Short-Order Cook
The characters in this dialogue are
The Short-Order Cook, and Someone Who Must Not Be Named (rather like Lord
Voldemort).
TSOC: "So what
do you want for
lunch?"
SWMNBN: "I'd like a
sandwich with ham on one side, turkey on the other, and cheese in the middle.
i'd like that with the ham and turkey
heated."
TSOC: "So you want
a grilled ham and turkey with
cheese?"
SWMNBN: "No, I
don't necessarily want the bread heated. Just put mustard on the side of the
bread with the ham, and mayo on the side of the bread with the
turkey."
TSOC: "Mustard on
the side of the bread with the ham an mayo on the side with the turkey.
Uh-huh."
SWMNBN: "And just
two slices of ham and two slices of
turkey."
TSOC: "These are
kind of long slices. If I fold it over, does that count as one slice or
two?"
SWMNBN: "That's two
slices. I don't like thick
sandwiches."
TSOC: "Do you
want Swiss or
Cheddar?"
SWMNBN: "You said
you had Swiss. I don't want to be any trouble."
