Kan't Find Chicken?
I think the main reason I still frequent the local KFC for lunch every now and then is the fact that the meal is always accompanied by a barrel of laughs resuting from the outright buffoonery going on behind the counter. For some reason yesterday I decided it would be a good idea to go there for dinner. I should have known better. Turns out they were out of chicken. I don't mean that they were out of some kinds of chicken. I mean they didn't have any chicken.
See I don't much care why or how a chicken restaurant can be out of chicken a full four hours before closing time. For all I know the chicken truck got lost, or the chickens were all on vacation, or the cooks were all too busy having dinner at a real restaurant. But my thing is that if you're out of chicken, don't make customers wait in line and then inform them of this sad fact one at a time as they reach the register. Because that's five minutes of my life I'm not getting back, you know? Alright, maybe it's my fault for not noticing that every person in line in front of me was leaving the counter without any food. But still, put up a sign that says you're out of chicken or something. Or better yet, just lock the door. If you're Kentucky Fried Chicken and you're out of chicken, you're closed.
