Today, as I was closing up at my sandwich-making job when a huge bus full of basic, snobby, preppy cheerleaders came in. They literally "can't even" decide what they want. FML
ironfey tells us more.
Oh geez. Umm hi. OP here c: so I should probably mention that it was about 10-15 minutes until closing time, and that we aren't allowed to close the gates until 5 til. First only like 5 came in, and we're like okay let's do this. We got this. And then another one came in. And another. And another. Not only that, but some of our bosses family came in, so we had to serve them FOR FREE. I didn't get to clock out until 30 minutes after, and I would've had to stay even later if it wasn't for the fact that I'm 16 and that child labor laws exist. And I should also mention that I have nothing against cheerleaders, I've known cheerleaders and dancers that are the most down to earth people in the entire world, but these girls were the type that ask for the meat to be heated separate, for us to pack the vegetables separately, ask for sauce on the side, etc. It was ridiculous. But thank you all for your comments, and anyone else out there working retail: You're a damn trooper, kudos to you c;

Did they have any *odd* orders? Get it? Because they "can't even? "

The OP called them "basic", literature I also attribute to people known to say "I can't even". Just sayin'.

Not necessarily. I know "basic" is being used as a slang term these days. However, that doesn't mean that everyone is using the term in that way. In this instance, the OP could have been honestly using it to illustrate how simple these girls were (simpletons). Or, the OP may have been using "their" terminology ironically to illustrate his/her point. Either way, I don't think you're in a position to judge. OP's grammar and syntax were fine.

Be like "oh my gosh Becky look at the time. I can't even keep open any longer" with the sassiest voice

Did any of them ask you how big is a 6 inch hoagie? That happened to me back when I was a sandwich maker.

Not gonna lie, I've asked that question before. But in my defense, it was finals week and I was running on 2 hours of sleep

In the defense of people who say that, Subway's 12inch subs aren't actually 12 inches.

That happened to me too when I was a sandwich maker. I was just like "you just said it"...-_-

They could be asking about girth, not length...
metalcrazed 21
That's valid,the footlong isn't twelve inches,why would the 6 inch measure correctly?

I don't like understand WHY this is an fml? Like.. you're getting business, right? I totally can't even... no this is ridiculous. Whatev's.
lexwilder 16
you clearly have no experience in the fast food business. 1) a bus full of people is always an fml 2) anyone that shows up at close is an fml 3) "literally can't even" is self explanatory.

Tell them you "can't even" give a sh*t
