I go to mcdonalds, ask for a half dozen nugget combo. They have no clue what I'm talking about, so I look up to see what number combo that is, and then ask for that combo, then they ask me if I want 6 or 10... LOL

Kinda makes you wonder if you even need basic math skills to get a job these days.

Yeah no kidding... ironicly I made the mistake of puttng dozen in my post when I meant to put half dozen, fixed it. And yes I did ask for half a dozen.

Just ask for six next time and maybe you won't confuse the mathematically challenged.

Yeah will have to do that. Or I can try asking for two quarter dozens

Can you imagine the reaction to that order?

For some weird reason it would end up being very expensive.

Yes, I’d have to agree. It would save work for both parties.

I don’t hear many people use “dozen” outside of cooking. Still, I’d think I could use the term and assume that a person could take half. Perhaps they’re supposed to ask that. A lot of people would take the extra four and the cost that goes with it. I hate when businesses do that. If I want extra, I’ll say I want extra.

Why did you eat there?

Maybe Red has a cholesterol deficiency.

It's pretty much my friday routine. Finish college at 12:20, take the bus, instead of getting off near home I just get off at the mall, pick up the mcdonalds and head home (a few blocks down) warm it up if it's cold out, then eat.

I could also do that on mondays and thursdays but it would be pretty unhealthy, and expensive.

Of course! It all makes sense now. That's why we don't have a dozen (12) nuggets anymore .

That is pretty sad. Do you think if you asked for a quarter pounder they give you a quarter of a burger? Hehehe, but no, the nuggets are addictive, but they give you heartburn. Must be all the preservative agents

Hahaha next time I should ask for a half pounder. Basically two quarter pounder combos.
