i don't do macaroni and cheese

i was having one of those afternoons and then a colleague told me this story -

a while back he stopped in a restaurant on the way home. he told the man at the counter that he wanted "fish, greens and macaroni and cheese." the guy called the order down the line. my colleague stopped at the first server - the guy put a piece of fish on his plate and pushed the plate to the woman next to him. that server put a scoop of greens on the plate. she then pushed the plate to the next station, but just as she did, the woman staffing the next set of serving bowls left and went to the back. the plate just sat. finally my colleague asked the woman scooping greens to put some macaroni and cheese on his plate so he could pay and eat. the woman quickly replied - "i don't do macaroni and cheese." then the fun really started!

it ended with my colleague telling the greens queen that she really needed to show initiative or she was going to be scooping greens for the rest of her life. finally the manager intervened. the greens scooper reminded him that she doesn't do macaroni and cheese. instead of just putting the food on his plate, the manager called for the other server who informed him that she went to the back because she needed a break!

my colleague left with no food, but a great line - i don't do macaroni and cheese!
