Today I had special lunch plans with someone. We walked to a nearby lunch place and ordered a Greek salad with chicken and a wrap which also contained chicken. Now, I understand that chicken takes a few minutes to cook so that it isn't raw and infested with
salmonella, however, we were sitting there for almost 40 minutes. We had ordered the food to go so that we could take it outside to eat and the place was not crowded at all. By "not crowded at all" I mean that there was one person sitting at the counter drinking a cup of coffee and reading a newspaper and we were the only other customers. We had already paid so we couldn't just leave. We continued to sit and look at our watches. Finally we got our food with no apology or explanation for the delay. After finding a place to sit and eat outside we had to shovel our food down our throats because I only have an hour for lunch. Actually, an hour usually seems like a really long time for lunch. I usually only take 15 minutes but this slow lunch place who seemed to think I had all day to eat, turned my nice leasurely hour into a 15 minute lunch anyway. And it wasn't even that good. We probably contracted salmonella.
