Ok I feel old saying this but it directly impacted me so screw it.
So yesterday I make it out to the grocery store for a few things, some nice sales. So I decide why not have some sushi, california rolls. I know what you foks r thinking that's not real sushi. Well screw you most of you cant afford rice nevermind sushi. Anyway moving on.
So I decide I haven't have Chinese in awhile so shy not buy some of the cold Lo Mein and Bourbon Chicken for dinner. So I'm looking at the dishes and there is the guy behind all the hot plates, etc. I say hey can I get an egg roll he says "wuh ki"? I knew I was in trouble right then and there.
I say "shrimp". No problem on the eggroll, it was awesome. So my question was, are the plastic containers the lo mein and chicken come in microwavable? As many of you know I am a bachelor, and the last thing I plan on doing is ******* washing dishes despite the fact I sleep not a foot and a half away from my sink.
So I say "Are these containers the food is in microwavable?" obviously a concern because I don't want to contaminate my food with melted plastic. I get a blank stare back. "Can you put these is the microwave?" NOTHING. "AM I ABLE TO PUT THESE CONTAINERS IN THE MICROWAVE TO HEAT MY FOOD."
"I sorry". I'm like damn I'm going to have to wash a dish, something I have been desperately been trying not to do since I moved into this one bedroom mansion. Either that or ask someone else, and I was hungry as fok and ready to get the hell out of there.
I mean for the love of everything decent if you are here learn the damn language. No it does not make the food more authentic to me if you don't speak English if anything it makes me think you can't exercise simple American health code because you can't read the damn list of what to and what not to do. I for the most part am not racist but by no means should I be inconvenienced when I am the one covering the overhead despite the small amount of my purchase. Stupid.
On the way out my subconsious made my head look straight up at a cashier who could not have been older than 16 at the exact same time she did the same and I thought about what it would be like to be down there and I realized that I am growing into quite a dirty old man both metaphysically and literally and that I really just don't give a shit. At all.
Bunch of bush league crap at that place I'd say.
Good egg roll though.
