Stupid deli workers, annoying as fucκ

Commotion Ocean

When I ask for a white roll, don't just assume want butter and just put a glob on the knife.

Don't look so shocked at me ask me if "I'm sure" when I tell you I want neither butter nor mayonnaise.

Don't cut my roll open with a butter-laden knife after I clearly stated that I don't want butter, thus leaving butter residue in my roll.

When I ask for meat, salad and stuffing, don't jam in the salad and put the meat on top then drizzle the stuffing on top, thus causing it to fall out.

When you cut my roll in half GO ALL THE WAY BASTARDING THROUGH, don't just cut half way thrugh it leaving me to tare the rest.

That's not even a 1st world problem, that's a 0th world problem.

I have actually refused a roll based on this. Of course I saw them cut the roll with a butter laden knife but I thought it best to let them finish making my roll before I told them I don't want devil spunk in my roll!

In past times you would be told to man up

Men these days 😒

My pet peeve is that when i ask for coleslaw (for example) i don't want you to take a knife and scrape a tiny bit of it accross the roll. Take out a spoon and put a decent amount on.

You know they're good when you ask for your roll/sandwich to be toasted and they offer to put the Lettuce on after its been toasted.

I can relate to a lot of that. Don't really use Deli's anymore since my work situation changed years ago. But I do remember a regular occurance back in the boom days of celtic tiger Ireland. Anytime I asked for a bacon and sausage sambo in a Deli a young Eastern European girl would always ask me if I wanted Mayo on it. WTF! Esso Stations were big culprits. Any breakfast related sambo had a Mayo request! It was like their basic training to make a sambo made mayo compulsory. Poor feckers. Victims of ****ty management.

Sambos not cut properly was another issue. Cut the fooking thing in half. Its fooking easy. Apart from my contribution OP, you need to calm down and realise that you are now the victim of having a job, being able to afford to have lunch in a Deli and posting about it on the oul interweb.

What gets me is that they offer you butter, but it's not real butter they're using. It's normally just some butter substitute.
I've never actually had the luxury of having real butter even though the majority of delicatessens offer it as so.

Haithabu

They typically cut mine in half without asking if I want it cut in half.

Sometimes they ask "cut in half?" and I reply "no" and then they cut it in half anyway.

Ah FFS! This is getting rediculous! Virtually every roll/sambo is cut in half.

I was once in a cavery where the chef asked me did I want mushy peas with my roast beef as he was pouring the knuts over my dinner. It was the 90s. I had no internet to complain on. I told the prick to redish my dinner.

The Rape of Lucretia

I was in one where, despite my asking clearly for it to be filled without the roll being cut at all, the server point blank refused to do so. They insisted on cutting it open, saying that was the only way they could fill it. Who trains these people, or decides they are fit to work at a deli counter ???

Marzipan85

Well we know what dfeo's punishment will be if he ends up in hell... making sandwiches for people he doesn't care about for minimum wage for all of eternity.

flazio

I've never had a butter problem in Subway in fairness.

Thats a thread closer right there.:D

how could any of you contemplate eating any of that tasteless /over-processed ****e in a roll for your lunch and pay at least a fiver for it ?

It is always some margarine looking/tasting crap. Never real butter. The ingredients on display in a lot deli counters is the cheapest sh!t they could get their hands on.. Grey ham is always a very bad sign.

Thats not the point of the thread. The person making the roll is not responsible for the tasteless crap that goes into it. They are responsible for how they make it.

I do agree with you though.

Absolutely. Most deli food is pure muck. When O'Briens first opened, their chicken and sweetcorn sandwich was awesome. Nowadays it literally thawed out frozen chicken from an unknown source.

Where are you paying at least five euro for a roll?

For those too lazy to make a sandwinch themselves, an autonomous robot will be shortly providing this basic assembly task.

A touch screen and sand-bot-artist at your local Subway could probably do this human task better, faster and for longer than anyone else.
So you can send any complaints to the chief robot of food assembly robots, they really won't care though.

stateofflux

haha ive actually been asked by deli staff 'do you REALLY want mayonnaise AND egg mayonnaise in your roll?!"

yes i do

Mint Sauce

When you are making my wrap, at least trap it tight enough, so the whole thing does not come apart, the moment I remove the grease proof paper.

Oh, and keep that yellow processed cheese well away from anything I order, unless its a Taco Chip and I am in Abras or Supmacs. Even a thread of that **** makes anything uneatable, again unless its a Taco Chip.

Then stop being an as*hole and order stuffing, salad, meat.

Quite easy to dodge that fucking swear filter once you know how.



Useless deli staff, not so easy.

Robsweezie

pet hate is bits of cheese in the roll (hate cheddar cheese) and forgetting to cut it. as a whole the dunnes ladies are pros, friendly and capable. and they call me ''love''.

Wheeliebin30

One talent the foreign workers haven't imported is good sandwich making.

A small bit of butter does not mean half a tub.

gercoral

it was bound to happen..
yes I work in a deli.

butter on the knife used to cut open the roll is just lazy basic hygiene..no excuse.
the butter used is more than likely a margarine spread. sorry about that.
i'm sorry that we ask butter or mayo. 80% of people usually want both. no bother. soemtimes ketchup on that too. no worries at all.
the "scrape" of coleslaw, egg mayo, potato salad..sorry about that. where i work, we have to use a scrape or we are genuinely given a bollicking and a lecture on food costs etc etc
i'm sorry we can only put one slice of ham in your roll or sambo.
i'm sorry that your breakfast roll has A sausage and A rasher. pls speak to the boss.

sorry to add my 2 cents worth but I can only speak for myself. in the deli i work, well its in a petrol station, it has been drilled into us to give pretty much as little as possible for a high price. i think its disgraceful. i'd liek to think that if my boss went into a place and got a sambo or roll the way he wants s to make them in his shop, he would give it straight back or not pay for it

Why not make your own wrap? And if you dont like the cheese, simply don't ask for it

Foreign workers are not the only ones guilty of that. Only thing worse than stray threads of processed yellow cheese, is biting into lump of unspread butter.

I anticipate all these mistake easily these days. The most important is to make sure they put the grated cheese in first!

Erm, cos I am in hurry, and hungry maybe.

My point is I don't ask for cheese, so dont get it near my wrap/sandwich.

mickdw

I've dumped a few rolls where having told them no butter, it ended up with a large streak of butter and ketchup.
Its disgusting when you are someone that doesnt eat these things.

Mister Vain

I love my local deli. The women are delicious and they make a sexy roll.

LynnGrace

The gloves, the gloves... Apparently you can do all sorts of stuff with them there gloves... Pick up food, cut the roll/ wrap, open the nearest door. No worries.

Ye giving me a bit of entertainment with this, as someone who serve people food, i have learned to act dumb at times when I hear complaints, and laugh things off, there are bigger fish to worry about

Well my 0th world problem is tomatoes appearing on most sandwiches unannounced

Take that bitter soggy ridiculous fruit off my crisp ham and cheese sandwich, please and thank you.

You give out about how people take your order and you go and order a 'taco chip'? If you ordered that from me you'd get one solitary lonesome chip on its own dipped in mince with a noodle of cheese around it. There's your taco chip, sir, that's what you asked for.
