Last summer I was in subway and wanted a BMT (big meat tasty) but mistakenly asked for a BLT (bacon, lettuce, tomato)
I did not watch the prep, but just before sauce time, I noticed a distinct lack of meat and way too much vegetable
I asked where the meat was and the guy identified the bacon. I said where is the other meat and he got a bit defensive about his sandwich prep skills. Then it occurred to me that it was a BLT.
I said I had made a mistake and wanted a BMT, so just throw a few bits of the other meat on. He said he could not do it, because then it would not be a BLT. I said I did not want a BLT I wanted a BMT. He said it would not be a BMT either.
I was laughing but the sub guy was not. We exchanged a few more BM L and T comments, but he just would not put any other meat on. He said he would have to throw the sandwich away and make another!
Apparently it was "policy". He then offered to add more items to the BLT at extra cost!
The most annoying thing, was that he really could not see the stupidity of what he was saying or proposing
In the end he made me a BMT and threw the BLT away
