Dumb Donuts

Out of milk in my mind means one thing: donuts. And there's only one kind of donuts: Dunkin. This new DD by our house just opened and has a drive-thru, an invention totally meant for donut eaters like me who struggle to get up in the morning but do manage to get out of the house for a delicious donut reward. However, this new Dunkin Donuts failed at one of the most important things: competent servers. This was our order:

Whit (driving and very tired): Can I have a donut with sprinkles and a chocolate glazed donut hole
Lady taking our order: ...A chocolate glazed hole, anything else?
Whit: One jelly-filled
Lady: Oh, one jelly-filled donut hole, is that all?
Whit: No, we still want the chocolate glazed hole
Me (passenger-ing and very tired): [trying to be heard over the sound of speaker and Whit talking] Sprinkles! She forgot my donut with sprinkles!
Lady: Okay, two donut holes, that's 50 cents
Me: That's supposed to be a donut not a donut hole! And don't forget the sprinkles! Who would order just two donut holes??
Whit: Wait that's a jelly-filled DONUT and a chocolate glazed hole
Me: And sprinkles!
Whit: ...and a donut with sprinkles
Lady: haha, oh okay, one sprinkles, one jelly-filled, and one chocolate hole, that'll be $2.25 [goofy laugh]

I am thinking, "How dumb do you have to be to mess up an order that many times?? It's only like 9 in the morning!" But we did manage to get our donuts...finally! And then as we were driving away laughing due to our tiredness and the malaise of that ordering situation, Whit notices he only ordered one donut, which is not enough breakfast for a man! Arrgh Dunkin Donuts you got us this time, but next time, we will be victorious!

  1. This sounds like a funny adventure, though it obviously wasn't enjoyable when it happened!

  2. I can totally picture this whole scenario!

    ps - just because people are at work at jobs early in the morning does not necessarily make them morning people. :)
