Tesco cafe
« on: July 23, 2007, 06:00:55 PM »
Took one of my fellas to Tesco today to get him some shaving gear. I thought we'd have a cuppa and get him some lunch in the cafe just to stay away from the Asylum for a further hour.

Anyway, the bloke infront of me in the queue asked for one of the All Day Breakfasts. He was informed : " we've run out of eggs "  eeek:

because....

" we only have so many because we stop serving the All Day Breakfast at Noon.. eeek:

So, I get my brew and I sk for the Scampi and chips for the bloke i'm with, to be told : " You can't have any peas with it because we've run out ".. eeek:

I could literally SEE tins of peas on shelves from where I was standing.. whistle:

That reminds me of a recent meal out. I wanted strawberries and ice cream but it wasn't on the menu. I asked if they could serve some up but they said no as it wasn't on the menu. So I just ordered ice cream on its own. When my wife and son's desserts came, they both had a couple of strawberries on top! Barmy or what?

I used to work close to a large Asda which had the same ability to run out of items that were stacked high on shelves just a few feet away.

The frustrating thing is that you know if you questioned them about it they would come out with a ?logical? explanation as to why it would be completely beyond the known laws of physics to actually walk across the isle and take a tin of beans or whatever and heaven forbid actually take money out of the till and buy some so the stock all matched?  noooo:
