Place: Wendy's
Lunch: Classic Double with cheese, chili, Coke
Random Employee approaches my table and asks "Did you order what you wanted?" And I'm, like, "Huh? Of course I ordered what I wanted. What a stupid question." But before actually I say this out loud, I figure out she's probably meaning "Was your order served as you ordered it, or did we screw something up?" So I said "Yes".
Wendy's new interior is SNAZZY. Earthy tones and lots of wood. Some will find it BORING. Actually, it is sort of boring...
This Coke tastes funny.
I'm a needy person. On Tuesday at 8:30pm, I needed a PCI ethernet adaptor. For those technically challenged, this is what you would call a "doo-hickey".
I go online and check out Best Buy's inventory. They have a variety of doo-hickeys, and their feature that allows you to check stock at local stores indicates my local store has lots of these by at least three different manufacturers. So off I go.
I get to the store and look up and down the aisle where these should be. Nothing. Not even inventory/price tags.
I go to the kid manning the computer department. He's on the phone planning his after-work social agenda. I don't think he should be planning anything but bed. He looks really sleepy. He gets off the phone and asks me if he can help. I tell him what I need. He goes back to the aisle I was in, looks around, and runs to another guy.
(Another Guy): "We don't have anything like that."
(Me): "Your website says you do."
(Another guy): "Well, we don't."
Great.
It's now five to nine...too late to get to CompUSA...and I have no doo-hickey.
So my only hope is they stock such a thing at that mecca of hard to find internal computer components...Wal-Mart.
Wal-Mart actually had one.
In fact, they had eight.
And it was cheaper than any of the ones listed on the Best Buy website.
I win.
WHEN IS QDOBA GOING TO OPEN?!? They've looked ready since the weekend. I called their number but nobody answered. That's sort of rude.
