Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, the guy at Subway asked if I wanted to make my sandwich a footlong. I'm not sure what came over me, but before I realized what I was saying, I'd told him that I couldn't handle 12 inches. FML

Today, while working the Sunday rush at the deli, I held up a piece of ham to a blind customer and asked him if it was thick enough. FML

Today, whilst working at Subway, I took an order for 6 footlongs. The entire process took 15 minutes due to the customer's hesitant and glacial pace. When it came to paying, he pulled out his wallet, looked inside, looked at me, and walked quickly out of the store. FML

Flustration
Today, I got flustered by the gorgeous sandwich artist at Subway and ordered a “meat-long foot-ball.” On Rye of course. FML

Customer service
Today, while at work, a customer, who was also on his phone, rudely asked what kinds of bread we had for his sandwich. After I told him we had many different kinds to offer, he cut me off, told me to stop playing stupid, and stormed out after holding up a long line of people. FML

Today, my girlfriend and I were buying Subway. When it came to ring up the order the lady asked us together or separate? My girlfriend looked and said separate. Half-jokingly, I asked if it was some sort of hint. She looked at me and said yes. I got broken up over a 12-inch ham sub. FML

Today, a woman came in to order lunch. She ordered a sandwich then asked for me to configure it precisely to her complicated desires. This took a whole 5 minutes, during the lunch rush. When I told her the cost, she decided it was too expensive and cancelled her order. FML

Today, while working at a sandwich shop, we had a shortage and could only put so many veggies on one sandwich. I explained this to one man who was grumpy about it, but kept on ordering. I thought everything went well. He thought my face was a good target to launch his completed sandwich at. FML

Wasn't it some foreigner? I don't know how much 1 inch is too, because we use centimeters here

The customer is just trying to test you, OP. Don't give in to his/her trickery!

I worked at Subway for a while. People would ask that and then argue. I actually had a few customers take their sandwich to the table and measure it. People confound me.

We're confused, you see. We'll stop asking when men stop lying to us about what 6" really is.

that's why ladies have a hard time parallel parking... because men lie about how much 6 inches is.

I always say there are no stupid questions but I concede there are a few.

That's not a FML. I work at subway right now. There's a lot worse than this.

The other day at my work somebody asked me this. "how much does.your $5 pizza cost?" Some people just can't think.

Valid question. A $5 pizza will cost me $5.40 where I live because of tax. It's not a flat 5 bucks.

Maybe he just wanted to see how long the bread was
