Off Topic Help me to settle a debate

A couple of colleagues and I went to get a subway for lunch at one on site at the hospital I work out

one asked the to remake their sandwich as they put the cucumber on before the tomoto, they are refusing to see it as the same sandwich with the tomato on before the cucumber,

said its not the same, they are totally different

( they where having a cold ham, lettuce, tomato and Cucumber sub)

So is the same sub by having it as cold ham, lettuce, tomato and Cucumber sub or is cold ham, lettuce, cucumber and tomato sub 2 different subs

 

If I was behind the counter I'd have told them to **** off. They can rearrange it themselves

 

This!

 

I'd have turned the sandwich upside down and handed it back to the customer.

 

Thank you all,

it’s the same, but they were adamant that it’s not

 

They need to get a life for God's sake.

 

I suggested that too

they weren’t happy,

Day was made when we got back to the office and they dropped the sub on their work laptop

 

This is precisely the reason I couldn't work in the hospitality sector.

 

Alternatively make a sandwich at home just the way they like it and save a sh1t load of money.....it's a win win solution

 

I could understand somebody having a preference, for their own reasons. But with something with so little importance, you'd think they'd be willing to let it slide.
However, if that person had OCD and would be crippled with anxiety if their sarnie was made in the wrong order, then there would be a certain amount of sympathy there. But, as somebody has just said. If you were that bad with OCD, you would make your own sandwich at home, exactly how you'd like it.

 

Tell them that they are a pampered twat

 

Is the person you're talking about Anton Ego the food critic form Ratatouille?

Personally I think you're co-worker is taking the piss and is probably a pain in the arse in their personal everyday life, probably would twist on 21 in Vegas.

 

Feel for you working with people like that haha

 

I would suggest that any combination of ham, lettuce, cucumber and tomato is acceptable.
It will taste exactly the same!

 

I work with some “interesting” people

 

I dont really have an issue with how the cucumber and tomato were layered but to order that **** show of a sandwich in subway is an absolute disgrace. So many better options. I'd have punched them once for ordering that then punched them again for the tomato/cucumber comment.

 

We're they specific in the order of makeup? If not then their problem. What ass h*Les you work with mate.

 

I'll settle the debate, stay away from subway as they're ****e

 

Well, there is that

 

There’s an element of reality in this, as changing the order they hit tongue will alter the dominant flavour.

could you be arsed though…
