I had a girl order a order a sandwich with "all the olives." I was the kind of sandwich artist who didn't give a shit about corporate policy regarding "two ounces of lettuce, 3 pickles, etc." I was the people's sandwich artist. So I laid nearly a container of olives down. Must have been two pounds of olives on that shitty six inch. She loved it.
People like you are great. I asked for "More pickles than you have ever seen on a burger" at Steak and Shake. She brought me a cup of pickles because "no one can handle seeing that many pickles on a burger."
That reminds me of my time at mcdonalds, someone asked for 3x extra pickle, so I made it so there was more pickle than burger. He was the happiest I've ever seen a customer.
I asked Wendy's to pick some.of those ghost pepper jalapeños into my baconator, they refused. I had to buy the fries (which I was gonna buy already l) and throw that shit ontop the bacon.

I don't normally eat McDonalds these days but I love those damn pickles. You are an excellent human being.

The pickles are the only thing that made a job at mcdonalds bearable. Even in the dead of winter with nearly no customers we would go through a container of those delicious fuckers.
Also they are the reason the burgers are edible.

Not sure if the pickles are different in America cause the pickles are what caused me to not eat McDonald's here in Sweden, until I learned that you could order them without pickles that is.

In Australia it is tradition to remove the pickles prior to eating

One of the shifts after I'd put in my two weeks, we got a Filet with an Ask Me. Register told me, "the customer said to 'murder that bitch with pickles,' go crazy." I have fairly big hands, and I reached into the pickle container and grabbed as many as I could hold, and dropped them onto the filet. The box wouldn't close all the way, and the customer came up later and said we're the first location that's gotten him enough pickles... I think the pickles alone had enough salt to sterilize a manatee.
Used to work at McDonald's, and one of my coworkers told a story. Some guy had asked for Extra mustard, and got it, but he came back asking for it to be remade because there wasn't enough mustard. Apparently they put on a shit ton of mustard, which I imagine tastes like shit after a certain point.

I get it when I'm ordering with everything under the sun but most subs I get have just a few toppings so it's not like I'm hurting the bottom line with an extra pinch of shredded lettuce.
Yeah, I usually just get the meatball marinara with pickles so when they give me like 3 pickles I'm very disappointed and always have to ask for more and they look at me like I've just asked them to shoot a puppy.
Oh I'm not blaming you / the person behind the counter so much as the mandated rule. Consistency is smart in theory but has to have wiggle room to make any sense.
The subway I worked at, the owner was super strict about food usage to the point he would threaten to garnish our wages when we used too many olives. He also accused me of stealing $5. Five fucking dollars. I told him if I was going to steal from him it would be a lot more than $5.
Normally the way I avoid this situation in the first place is specifically going: "Give me what you think is a disgusting amount of olives." Works every time.

Hate the employees if that shit happens, if they're an older adult it's probably the owner being a prick because they hate paying for olives, and they can keep a set of eyes on the cashier. Still it's a company policy you can ask for as much as you want, if they cut you short just walk out and try another store the next time you feel like giving them a try.
I once told the girl at taco bell that I needed handful of hot sauce, she asked me to tell her how many packets, I said reach into the box, pull out a handful, count that, tell me the number, then I will order that many.
Take it out on the franchise and not the worker. When I worked at McDick's they told us to make the orders as the customers ask but at the same time threatened to fire us for wasting product when people ask for extra
I bet it's especially annoying when they drown your sandwich in the dressing you ask for, but put on very little toppings. The sandwich ends up being like 3-1 bread to toppings, but 5-1 dressing to bread
It's because the owners are stingy. I used to work at Subway and would give generous amounts whenever the manager/owners weren't around. However, when they were there or an inspector was around, I would have to comply with the whole "3 olives per 6 inch" bs or I'd risk getting my hours cut. Also, inspectors deduct points from their evaluation of the store when they see employees not follow the proper quantities.
That reminds me of how pissed off I get when I have to make a special request for ketchup to go with my fries at the McDonald's drive-thru. They don't have to put 10 in there, just one or two by default. Lots of people like ketchup with fries.

They probably don't give a shit mate, would you? They probably don't make their job making sandwiches at a chain store a big part of their life, their pride and joy and something they get super serious about. It's just another job, when I worked shit jobs I didn't give a second thought to anyone I ever served.
My order? Meatball Marinara on honey oat, toasted, double pepperjack, double bacon, lettuce, tomato, peppers, onion, gherkins, jalapenos, olives and sweet onion.
You can tell how long a person has worked there by their ability to neatly fold it over or not. New guys find it impossible.
Dude I order meatball with lettuce, spinach, cucumber, tomato, banana peppers, chipotle , mayo and hot sauce, with salt and pepper, parmesan cheese and oregano
Did this with picked when I was younger. Spent 4 hours puking pickles and then pickle juice. Needles to say, I couldnt even smell pickles until a few years ago without gagging.
when people put like 3 olives worth down i just want to white privilege all over that place.

When I was trained they actually told us to ignore corporate policy if a customer asks for more. We're supposed to follow the portions as closely as possible, but if a customer wants all the olives, then we're supposed to give them all the olives. Which is fine until they pack every olive we have into a six inch and I can't close the damn sandwich without getting sweet onion sauce all over the floor. :/
Jesus..I need to add the sandwich artists at my local subway to my Christmas shopping list. Any time I ask for pickles fhey just grab a bunch and lay them out over the length of the sub.
Dude! You're awesome. I worked at Friendly's and I loved it. I was a waitress but would frequently make desserts. I was also an artist.
Peanut butter cup sundaes. They are vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, peanut butter sauce and ONE peanut butter cup. As a garnish on the side.
One. Singular. On a freaking PEANUTBUTTER CUP SUNDAE.
I would smash one, sprinkle half in the bottom. Then ice cream, a little of each sauce, other half of cup, ice cream, sauces, more pnb cup, then the last scoop of ice cream, another 1/2 pnb cup, sauces and whip cream. Then I'd put the whole garnish cup on the side, cherry it then sprinkle a bit of pnb cup on the top.
I used to work at a taco bell and this one guy wanted extra onions on his burrito. Now mind you, he was being a dick so extra onions he got! Two fistfuls of chopped onions. More onions than anything else on that burrito, and they aren't the freshly chopped kind. They come out of a bag and they're typically pretty strong. I have no idea if it was enough onions for the guy, but we didn't receive any complaints. Success!
I've gotten into the habit of asking for "extra extra pickles" on my sandwiches because using just one "extra" apparently doesn't get it through most people's heads that I want more than the normal amount.
I learned there is a difference between corporate manates and customer requests. Customer requests trump whatever corporate wants to set as the rule. 4 tomatoes, 6 pickles, 6 black olives. I'll do a corporate sub unless the person makes special requests. Now I fucking hate so called Sandwich artists who will throw on two or three extra pickles and olives when I ask for more. I WANT TO DROWN THAT FUCKING SUB IN PICKLES AND OLIVES AND YOU ARE GOING TO DO IT!!!!!!!!!!
Why they so stingy with the spinach? I order a veggie delight I want a salad on toast, not this single layer of leaf bullshit they trying to give me these days.
Worked at Papa Johns for a long time. Every now and then I'd get a request for extra icing on the cinnamon sticks.
Every single time, I would look them dead in the eyes and ask, "Are you sure?". If they said yes, I would do this head tilt thing, and say Okay.
Most the time they thought I was kidding. I wasnt. What they got was bread, cinnamon, and half inch deep pools of icing. Just drenched. Better eat it with a spoon cause it's soup now.
My coworkers would watch this exchange, and try to warn the customers. They wouldn't listen. They never did.

When i was 17 i worked at subway and we had a guy at the hollywood video next door that would get once scoop lobster salad, one scoop tuna, two slices of roast beef and extra bacon. Extra mayo, american cheese, hot peppers, salt. I'll never forget it. He called it mikes surf and turf.
mike was the real sandwich artist

Could have been real lobster just not maine. Langostino's are used a lot in bulk lobster. They are just a little bit bigger than realy large shrimp, and about the same cost per pound as small shrimp.
I'm in China right now, and literally every pizza joint here puts this insane amount of vegetables and fruit on the pizza, to a point where it's almost unrecognizable. All I want is a cheese pizza (because finding actual cheese here is like finding a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow surrounded by unicorns). Thank the gods for Dominoes. Dominoes delivers, has online delivery in English, and they sell a simple cheese pizza. I hate dominoes in the US (where I'm from), but Chinese Dominoes is my savior when I do not want Chinese food.
tl;dr Pizza may suck in China, but Dominoes is eternal.
Maaaaan you gotta get to a papa johns and have their Fritos pizza. It is the weirdest most delicious shit ever. It is a pizza that tastes like a taco. I had it in Shanghai last night.
That is some weird ass shit, like a stoner's fever dream haha. But I may have to try it. Last year, when I was hungover in Shanghai, I hit a Papa John's and had some mind blowing pizza. It may have been the fact I was cheese deprived or the fact it was my first full meal of the day, but that was some damn good pizza :D
I'm in India right now, and honestly, Dominoes here is absolutely balls as well. However, it's the only place that I've found that serves food involving legit cheese other than paneer/cottage cheese, so I have eaten a ton more terrible pizza than is often recommended. It's worth it for that goddamn curdled dairy.
Yes and it's still really expensive. I haven't looked too much yet, but my friend (from Germany), went and found what she thought was a cheese from Germany. It kinda was, but not really. Like, if you're an American, do you know the fucking Kraft American Singles?? These are basically every relatively cheap cheese you can find in China. Real, off the block cheese, is basically really small and really expensive (according to German friend who actually went to one of these markets)
Yeah, what's with that? Even at pizza Hut, you can't eat your pizza without everything falling off it and leaving you with a slither of bread with tomato sauce on.
I have no clue. Part of me thinks it the food culture here. Put a lot of different foods together to balance it out and make it "delicious."
My pizza I eat at a Western/ Chinese place is exactly like this. It's some little small business restaurant called Sarah's. The pizza may suck, but it is like 1/2 the price of Dominoes.
It depends where you are in China but in larger cities cheese isn't hard to find and you can even buy it at a local supermarket. But it may be pricy compared to the states.
I read once that many asian people are lactose intolerant, and thats why you don't often see dairy. In most asian markets, they seem to have more soymilk than milk.
Honestly in Shanghai, that is hard to believe. I'm amazed by the obscene amounts of regular dairy milk, soy milk, milk tea, yogurt (super popular here), and so on.

Usually they put more cheese on a margarita, so you more or less get the same amount because you don't have salami or vegetables or some shit.
That's because a lot of places charge the same for a margarita pizza as a pizza loaded with toppings. I'm not paying top dollar for a little bit of mozzarella and tomatoes.
Currently live in Japan. Currently work at subway. Can confirm.

I find that most Indians think this way at the Mexican restaurant I frequent.
They will order a veggie burrito (the cheapest, biggest item on the menu) then try to get double this and double that. Extra sauce on the side, extra rice etc then complain if they get charged for anything extra.
It's really sad to watch, these are people with well paying jobs trying to complain about getting charged $.50 for double rice on a $4 burrito.
[deleted] · 45 points · Posted at 05:34:08 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
Just want to point out that the majority of Indians are vegetarians, so it's likely they're ordering the veggie burrito because it's veggie.
[deleted] · -1 points · Posted at 14:38:28 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
I never said it was. All I was doing was point out a different perspective from which one could look at their choice of the veggie burrito. One supported by a fact which makes it the likely reality of this scenario.
All I'm saying is most people know they are vegetarians. Your comment wasn't needed. The problem was they wanted extra without being charged.
[deleted] · -1 points · Posted at 14:42:38 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
Approximately 48 people disagree with you that it wasn't needed, and part of the claim that they wanted extra was that they were ordering the veggi burrito because it's the biggest burrito.

Can also confirm. My mom told me a story of when she first came to america she went to subway and would be too embarassed to ask for specific vegetables cause she couldnt pronounce them in english very well. So she just told them to put everything on the sandwich.
I love onions, I always get an oven roasted chicken breast with may, lettuce, tomato's, and extra extra onions, double the extra. And when they had the sri racha sauce, I got that added to it, it tasted fantastic.

I was behind a guy in subway before who got a a BMT with double meet, extra cheese and toasted. Every single salad option (and extra) and then every single dressing. The monstrosity was like 6 inches thick and the subway guy struggled to package it all.
Am a regular customer to a subway in subiaco, perth. Can confirm fist fulls of onions is the way forward. I asked for it so often, it got to a point where i didn't even have to tell them what i wanted :D
These are always the strangest ones in my opinion. Anyone who gets more than like 2-3 sauces on their sub is just a weirdo. I've had people order southwest, sweet onion, mayo, sriracha, oil and vinegar all on one sub. And it's pretty common. Like, what the fuck are you going for?

-Anyone who ordered the Seafood sub and then got it toasted. Stunk up the whole restaurant and had to taste awful.
Gotta toast that bread before putting the toppings on. That's how I request the egg sandwich (I hope I'm not being a pain to the workers there). Otherwise the egg softens the bread and defeats the whole purpose of toasting it.
did the extra onions person look like they lifted? onions increase testosterone levels to the point where onion juice is prescribed as a male fertility treatment.

To be fair, there's a dish at a Chinese buffet I go to that's hot krab and mayo salad with cheese melted on top, and it's DIVINE. Yeah it stinks, and I don't care.
The Southwest sauce tastes awesome, but pouring an entire bottle of it onto the sandwich was disheartening and demoralizing.
Also I saw this guy on my way to work ask for 25 (specifically that number) of sugars in his iced coffee. Then the sandwich thing happened, and he got pissy when my manager said he'd have to be charged extra for the excessive sauce. Then he trespassed on construction across the street and we watched him get arrested.
During a brief stint as a sandwich artist, I had a guy come in who asked for a foot long ham and turkey sub with all of the veggies, mayonnaise, and two oatmeal raisin cookies in it. He seemed really hype about it.
The high guys who came in to the store I worked at (two dudes that came in fairly regularly for a semester) would order what we dubbed the Gangbang Supreme (inspired by the name of the McGangband). It involved:
Chicken Bacon Ranch with Double Meat = 4 trays of chicken and 8 slices of bacon (double bacon comes with the double meat)
3x Footlong orders of extra bacon = 20 Slices of bacon total
3x Footlong orders of extra cheese = 16 "Slices" of cheese.
Lettuce
Tomato
Bananna Peppers
Ranch
Chipotle
Make it a meal (chips and a large drink)
And finish it off with 6 cookies.
These guys were maybe 6' and 160lbs. There were thin and somehow put it all away, ever single time.
I know a guy who did this. It was because he would ask a coworker everyday if he wanted a cookie or a sub when he went to grab his own lunch. He mixed up his words one afternoon and asked if he wanted a cookie sub so naturally his coworker said yes. Mystery solved!
I think you took this story from another redditor. I'll look for it and post it. He was hyped because his wife wouldn't let him eat sugar. So he told the guy who made the sandwich to "put that shit in my sandwich". I'm looking for the link.
Nope, this really happened. It was a younger guy who didn't really have a reason for adding the cookies as far as I could tell. I guess this isn't as uncommon as I thought. Thanks for being so diligent in looking for phony posts, though! I don't like when people steal others' stories, either.

I was really fucking high once and decided to get a subway, I had never smoked a blunt before (and barely smoked much else to be fair) but I smoked one with my big stoner buddy. I was fully not safe to be in public.
Holy shit did I fuck it up, it was peak lunchtime, I got my order straight in my head but first I had to check my subcard to see if I had enough points for a footlong or a six inch because I had no money "Can you check the card for to see how much sandwich I have on this thing" luckily the guy knew.
Ok footlong, I think, fuck, I don't know, lets gamble this shit! I can't pay for it if I don't have enough points, oh fuck, what the fuck everyone is looking at me. OH FUCK! THE ORDER! GUYS ASKING ME FOR MY ORDER!
"Can I get a meatball marijuana on honey oat man"
Fuck everyone knows I'm high, fuck fuck fuck, I should run the fuck out right now.
(I zone back) Guys asking me if I want it toasted? Just say yes.
"Yes"
Ok fuck we're on to salad, fuck, just get all the salad, you're too high to fuck around choosing.
(I managed to fumble through it and pay)
I then go sit on one of the stools facing the wall with the little counter and zone out, until my buddy taps me on the shoulder and asks me if I'm ok because I've been staring at the wallpaper for like 10 minutes. Finally chow down on my sandwich like a hungry desert islander, so high I bite my own fucking finger once or twice...
I really should not have been in public, I was absurdly high, but I was also 16 and still living with my folks so I couldn't go home.
I was once trying to order a footlong meatball sandwich. I got up to the counter and accidentally said, "I want a football," and then couldn't stop laughing because it cracked me up for some reason. I had to leave and come back later when I'd calmed down.
I work at Giordano's (Deep Dish Specialty Pizza place based in Chicago, has a few locations outside of Illinois) and when you order a pizza to go, we are trained to ask if you would like any crushed red pepper or Parmesan with the pizza. Guy comes up to the counter, we cash him out, and ask if he would like any, and he responds with "No thank you, but I will have some marijuana with it". The other girl at the counter and I look at eachother, look back at him, and go "Excuse me?" and he goes "Oh shit! Haha sorry, I meant oregano!" ...... We had to go into the kitchen and laugh it out really quick before getting his oregano to him lmfao.
I don't know if you have a Lenny's Sub Shop near you, but when I go, I always get two large Philly Cheesesteak with red pepper sauce. That's two 15" subs. I eat them both back-to-back. I'm disgusting, I know, but if you've ever had Lenny's Philly, you'll understand.

I don't get mine toasted, actually. And not putting the avocado on the bread is a huge pain in the ass and will make subway workers hate you, apparently. What really fucks up the bread is the tomatoes, anyway. But I actually don't really care. It still tastes good. Soggy bread doesn't bother me.
have you uhh, ever thought about buying bread, canned tuna and an avocado? Subway doesn't employ people because they know some secret to making a sub that you dont.

Once I asked a worker if he could do that or if he would hate me with every fiber of his being. I learned from him that they don't like that. Also apparently not asking for avocado before your other veggies is just awful.
As an employee, it's mainly because the avacado just sticks to everything it touches and all we usually have on hand to put it on is an ice-cream scoop. Trying to spread it evenly onto a pile of loose vegetables can be frustrating.
Putting the avacado on first just makes the whole process easier, and saves us the effort of having to clean the scoop in between sandwiches.
When your avocado is scooped out of a container with an iced cream scoop is about the time you should evaluate how hard it is to make your own sandwich.
Once watched someone try to make a shroom and peanut butter sandwich by spreading peanut butter on top of crumbled up shrooms. Ended up with a psychedelic peanut ball stuck to the knife and a clean piece of bread.
Lol fuck him...I've worked a ton of fast food jobs, he's just being a prick. Ask for what you want, its literally one second of extra work. Some people in fast food are just spoiled assholes.

It could just depend on who I asked. I generally walk into fast food places and immediately ask "what can I do to make dealing with me slightly less unpleasant?" then base all my future actions on what one employee tells me.
When I no longer care about soggy bread I hope someone just takes me out back and shoots me.

Possibly freeze them? I do that for work sometimes, make my lunches for the week (sometimes sandwiches sometimes not) and just defrost them at work in the nuke box.
I once ate a half-eaten Subway Melt that I found in the center console of my car. It had been there over a week, but I was high and "it's been cold outside its the same thing as being in the fridge".
It wasn't that bad aside from the veggies turning into mush.

I think they do it seasonally. Or at least they have done it as a "limited time" thing in the past. Don't be fooled though, it's not nice, fresh sliced avocado. It's like, pseudo guacamole that they shipped to them in bags. I was disappointed.
I worked at one in AZ that sold mashed, unseasoned avocado all year long. They brought guacamole in a while back, but that was after I stopped working there. They sell it all year long, too.
Ew yeah, that sounds gross. I glossed right over it, and now I am shuddering.

There was a guy who came into Goodcents (Midwest subway) every monday and had a pickup order for his entire week. He had three 16inch tunas smothered in guacamole, one 16inch turkey, and 3 chicken Alfredo's. I don't know why he would do that. It can't be good by Sunday...
We only asked about it because it was a very specific sandwich that he ordered quite a bit of. We really didn't care, and he didn't seem to mind that we asked; he was a regular.
Meatball with everything on it, extra sauce.
Everyone with common sense knows this just can't work. There's no room. It's too messy. But this fucking guy... he ordered it, and then proceeded to tell me what a horrible job I had done, and how disappointed he was. Like... have you ever gotten this before? Because this is what it pretty much has to look like. I'm disappointed in YOU for all of the choices that have led you to this point in your life.
Haha, what are you talking about? Meatball footlong with everything on it was my go-to lunch for two months straight! Lettuce AND spinach. But just a regular serving of Southwest, i'm not a barbarian. It is soo goood! I would never dream of complaining about it, though, i was just impressed about how they managed to contain the monstrosity so that i got it to the table :). I didn't eat much for dinner after one of those, though, that bastard got me through the day just fine.
I dunno why that name cracks me up so much. It's like they're trying to trick themselves into thinking they're eating a real sandwich. "It sounds like 'chicken marinara' until the very end, it's definitely real food!"

Well, it just means "Chicken with belonging to sea" or something like that.
So, you could say something like chicken OF the sea.
So... tuna.
tombue · 3 points · Posted at 05:10:03 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
But then it would be without chicken.
"Chicken with chicken of the sea" sounds stupid.
In Germany everyone knows what "maritim" means, so usually you don't have to explain it more.

This is actually what I get every time I go to subway. The sweet tang of the meatball marinara nicely contrasts the slightly salty kick of the tuna. 9/10, 10/10 with rice.
Where on earth are you shopping for groceries? I'm a Canadian and subway is insanely expensive in terms of fast food and a horridly inefficient use of money.
And if you live in the right spot, it's also open 24 hours a day. It's either subway or jack in the box, and I'd rather pretend to eat healthy than just admit to being fat when I order an oreo shake at 2 am.
I LOVE tuna. I actually think Subway's the one restaurant I go to that makes tuna the best. Everywhere else always puts these ginormous fucking chunks of celery in it. Like, it's supposed to be tuna salad, not celery salad.
Yep! Had a lady who always demanded that I first toast just mayonnaise (copious amounts) on the flat bread. After it came out of the toaster she would ask for the tuna to be put on and microwaved. Then she asked for marinara sauce on top of this followed by cold bacon, ranch, and precisely two tomatoes cut in half. Strangest thing ever.
Not a worker, but I watched the guy in front of me pull out a jar of peanut butter and jelly. He then asked the guy behind the counter to spread the peanut butter and jelly on his choice of italian bread. Then he wanted a meatball marinara on that, with tomatoes and jalapenos.
I was going to go home, but when he sat down so I decided to watch him eat that abomination. It was kind of difficult to watch him and retain my appetite.
Honestly... I've had meatballs with jelly in the sauce, amazing. I've had a bacon burger with peanut butter, not bad. I don't think this would be that bad.

At a state fair, I had a fried chicken patty sandwich with two donuts as the buns, and with jelly instead of mayo.
A lot of people make crock pot meatballs in a sauce of BBQ or spaghetti sauce mixed with grape jelly. It seems like every time there was a potluck at almost every place I worked at one of the guys goes around with a huge smile "didya like the the meatballs?! They had a secret ingredient .... GRAPE JELLY!!"
The peanut butter... That's just... Wrong. Maybe, maybe it would be OK on the Asian sandwich, kinda like pad Thai... Or maybe a bacon sandwhich... But meatballs with Italian sauce. Bleck.
I've tried hot pepper jelly on a burger before. It's not bad.

Don't knock it til you try it. Best pizza I have ever made/had was a thin crust with peanut butter, pizza sauce, bacon, jalepeno, and pepperoni. Delicious.
I worked at a sub shop similar to Subway. The weirdest order was a repeat customer. She would ask for about 6 or 7 strips of bacon on a large sub, with the (pre-cooked) bacon held in the deep frier for 2 minutes. Then all the bacon thrown back on the grill, with layer after layer of provolone melted onto the bacon. No toppings, just mayo. This mayo-fried-bacon-cheese on bread was a sticky, greasy mess resembling nothing on our menu. We charged her for a small veggie sub.
The store manager's reasoning was to charge her for the cheapest sub we sell, since it was just 6 slices of bacon in a pile of cheese. I personally think she was undercharged, and the manager was being really nice.

Were you that customer in the line before me? I heard someone say that once, except it was "meatlong football" instead of "football meatlong". I had to duck out of the line because I couldn't speak from laughing so hard. The manager came out to see what the commotion was about, and my friend was shocked by my out of proportion reaction.

My coworker at Tim Hortons would always make a sandwich that was a couple slices of Ham, a fistful (approx. 10-15) slices of bacon (It's microwave bacon, so paper thin, but still...) and then about 3/4 cup of mayonnaise. Like, the sandwich was equal parts mayonnaise as it was meat.
That was his sandwich, he ate it everyday. It was violent. I wanted to try it once but I couldn't stomach that much mayo, I like mayo, but as a condiment not an entrée.
Ever dipped french fries in mayo? It's pretty amazing. Also, I learned from Step Brothers that "fancy sauce" is pretty awesome too. Half ketchup-half mayo.
You can buy it bottled even here in Italy, we call it "pink sauce" (salsa rosa). I don't know why, when I could buy two bottles, one of mayo and one of ketchup, and have only mayo, only ketchup, or the mix of the two depending on what I want.
I've been getting creative with the cafeteria food at uni and have been mixing barbeque sauce with mayonnaise and dipping my fries in it, or putting it on a burger. It's even better with bacon bits mixed in to it.

Lol, for Puerto Ricans that is called mayo ketchup, sometimes garlic is added. MK is used in a wide variety of fried finger foods and entrees.

Building off this, if you mix white rice with mayonnaise and add salt and pepper, you'll get one of the best rice dishes that goes with anything. The mayo should be just enough that it glistens off the rice, it's a hard ratio to manage but I found it's about 5 cups dry rice, 1 cup mayonaise. Never measured it out with cooked rice.
We call it pink sauce here. Why, what do you use mayo for, if not for french fries dipping???
blurio · 1 points · Posted at 11:09:03 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
You all should come to germany. Fries with half ketchup-half mayo is standard here. "Pommes Rot-Weiss" or "Pommes Schranke" which literally means "Fries Red-White" or "Fries Barrier". Cause railway barriers are striped red and white here.
This is a completely normal thing in Germany and yet here you are, showing me that in other places, people haven't even contemplated this. It blows my mind. And yes, it's the best way to eat fries :)
Being Dutch means that I think french fries with mayo is damn delicious. In the Dutch food store near my house, and in most stores in Holland, they sell squeeze bottles of "fritesaus", which (as I hope you can tell) literally just means "fry sauce"... It's a squeeze bottle of "kind of mayo", but better.
Nokcihc · 1 points · Posted at 15:31:42 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
You can mix just about any sauce with mayo and it turns out great. Even just mixing some herbs in makes it 10 times better.
Well, my phone is a Moto G 1st Gen. Its a setting I just haven't bothered to change. The phone is on it's last legs - it took a brake rotor to the screen and only works with a very specific amount of pressure on the touch screen. :P I works with what I got. I mostly control it by voice.
When I worked at Tim Hortons I had a coworker named Franz. His go to was a large white bread that went: Bottom bun, mayo, swiss, ham, swiss, turkey, swiss, bacon, swiss, mayo, top bun. That sandwich was fucking legendary and stuck around longer the the man it was named for. Never forget the mighty Franzwich.

I used to work nights at a Subway and the oddest one I ever got was a nightly order by a husband ordering for his Asian wife. Footlong quadruple cheese (american) doused heavily in vinegar with salt on top. That was it. Every evening around 9pm.

Heh. I used to go down to my dad's workplace and hang out every Thursday, I was homeschooled and Thursday was the day my Mom liked to go shopping and I HATED shopping with her.
I always got lunch that day from a Mr. Sub that was next door. I was basically in there so much I got to know the employees on a first name basis, and all I literally had to do was walk into the store and wait. They knew exactly what my order was (BLT for Dad, and a toasted all meat, bacon and tomato sub for me) so I could go in and sit down.
I remember one time, I walked in and there was a bit of a line, so I stood off to the side and waited... After everyone cleared out and I was standing at the counter, a guy sitting at a table nearby said (Paraphrased, I can't remember exactly) "Not that it's any of my business, but aren't you going to order anything?", JUST as one of the servers handed me my order. The look on his face was priceless.

I once had a gentleman who asked me "burn the fuck" out of his sandwich. He also wanted a fistful of onions and banana peppers on it while it was burning. After the sandwich was black and burnt to his satisfaction, he smiled and said "that was the best sandwich he ever had."
The Subway near my house has really really nice people that are from some other country. It's a nice place to eat, feels like everyone likes working there, for some reason.

I went to a subway once and the woman behind the counter was from India or something.
I tell her what I wanted and she talks to me and I didn't understand a fucking word she said because her accent was EXTREMELY thick. Confused I just blurted out a "...What?". Then out of no where she started apologizing for her accent.
Never heard someone apologize for that before. That was a new one.

Yeah or apologizing that their English is bad. Like you can fuck up a sentence completely and I will still understand it, English is kinda weird like that.
I dunno man, when I fantasize about making assholes miserable at work I usually try to aim a little higher than someone making sandwiches for minimum wage. Where's the challenge in that? Now if you could ruin Jamie Dimon or Donald Trump's day, then you'd be a real dreamer.

Right? Because the subway employee was totally wearing $500 jeans. Like even if she owned a pair of jeans that expensive, she wouldn't wear them to work.
I think the story ends with him buying something else and not paying for the initial ridiculous order. Unless you mean that it costs too much to go to subway in general when you can just live on ramen. In which case I agree.
I actually knew a girl that liked higher-end clothes, and this was the story. In order for her to afford the clothes, she worked part-time. She also was a good person and not like the mentioned Subway employee
I'm not saying this story is true, but not everyone who works at subway is necessarily making a shitty wage. I worked at subway all through university here in Australia and never made less than $15 an hour and my wage went up a few times correlating with age and experience. Along with my second fast food job (cashier at a chicken place), I was able to pay rent and live pretty damn comfortably.
I never really found any strange combinations. Pretty much any meat/veggie/cheese combo can taste okay. The orders I found strange were moreso when someone asked for one item completely out of moderation. Like seven handfuls of banana peppers or half a bag of mayonnaise on their sub. Also, one time someone asked for 10 servings of chicken teriyaki alone, nothing else. Not even bread.
Almost all of subway's condiments come in bag form and are squeezed into the tubes that you see them in on the assembly line at the end of the day or when the supplies are low. "Eat fresh"
Not really weird, but definitely the saddest sandwich I made. There was an older woman (75+) who would come in about once per week to get a meatball sub. She wanted the meatballs separate in a salad bowl and then would take the bread home to her dog because she couldn't bite into the bread. She would always eat in the restaurant before she left and she had to take such small bites that it would take her about 15 minutes to eat a couple of tiny meatballs.

I hate jobs where they avoid to call you an employee. What the hell? I'm not an "associate". I don't want to be "associated" with you like some sort of volunteer, I just work here.
The original "associate" title came from Walmart, back when Sam Walton was in charge and wanted to hourly employees to feel like the important part of the business they are.
Ever since then every company comes up with something that isn't "employee" even though we all know it's bullshit.
I used to get extra pepperoni with pickles on white untoasted. This was my sandwich for over 15 years of my life! It's now ridiculously long and complicated but every now and then a extra pepperoni with pickles on white sneaks in. ;)
I've never been to NYC, but if you say "the Subway in NYC" would people know what one you're referring to? I feel like there would be like a dozen of them in NYC.
I had a guy come in once who wanted to sandwiches with double of every type of meat on them.. It was night and we didn't care so we did it.. When it came time to wrap the sandwich up I just took another foot of bread and cut it open and placed it on top.
We charge him for two double meat footlongs.. He came in and tried it again when my manager was around and she charged him for every meat double I believe it came up to $34.
I also had a woman come in once when toasting was new and she was complaining that it didn't toast for enough time.. Really bitchy about it so I put her foot long on for 3x the time it should have been in.. That bread was black but she didn't bitch since she was so adamant I wasn't doing enough time anyway.

I had a lady come in about every other night who ordered a cold cut combo (now trio) and she would have me remove the ham and salami, then cover ever exposed bit of cheese and bologna with mayo.
She complained to me one night that one of the employees working on my off night gave her a hard time when she asked for the extra mayo. When I asked him about it, he said he started to get nauseous over all the mayo and basically had to ask the cashier to take over before he lost his lunch.

TheHaak · 1 points · Posted at 22:19:57 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
Yes, and all three tasted basically the same, like a salty, honey ham thing. You know its healthy for you when their turkey-based meat products are the most fattening meats on the menu.
Not Subway, but I worked at a sandwich shop called Little King, and we had a guy that came in occasionally and he would order a hot Mortadella and ketchup sandwich. After making it and smelling it, we eventually made new employees eat one as a rite of passage to work there.
edit: Mortadella is bologna with chunks of fat in it.
Yeah, one of the employees that we had eat it said it just tasted like a hot dog and he actually started eating them consistently and putting mustard and pickles on them. They made the rest of us nauseous though.
Not subway but I was a pantry cook in a nice seafood and sushi restaurant. There was a guy that would come in a few times a year, sit at the bar, and order a sandwich with 3 oz of beluga caviar on lightly toasted white bread. And a side of fries. I think he just came into town on business. But at the time I think that was about a $300 sandwich.

If the place you worked at didn't itemize receipts, he probably just passed it off as entertaining some clients. Company picked up the tab, and it just looked like the "clients" always wanted to go to the same place.
Not a subway worker, but I was behind someone who ordered a foot-long Feast (not many do this one anymore, but it's basically all the meats and all the cheeses), with double meat and double cheese, and no veggies.
Needless to say, "double-wide" is the best way to describe this customer.
I work at a bar that serves big 9oz burgers. Guy ordered a double with bacon and cheese...a double is not on the menu mind you. Ate all that, all his fries and finished his wife's mozzarella sticks and a couple pints of beer.

Oven to 150, put a temp probe in it that goes off when it hits 124 (anything a few degrees shy of 127, it's up to you), and give yourself like 2 hours. Then sear it at 500+ as soon as that's done.

Or, oven at 175 for 1.5 hours, then sear in an iron skillet. More perfect, but it's just quibbling.

Maybe I'm just not that much of a carnivore. Like, I enjoy meat, but I don't eat a ton of it. And if I do eat meat, I tend to go for chicken instead of red meat. I guess it's just how I was raised.
I could see that. I just don't understand it personally, though. I don't really drink that much or eat red meat that regularly. To each his own, I suppose. It just sounds like a LOT of meat to me.

2 half pound patties? That's a pound of meat, just meat. Then there's toppings, condiments, bread and fries. That's at least 2 pounds of food. In an entire day most people eat 3-4 pounds. I think this is excessive.

Used to work at Red Robin, we had a guy that came in every once in a while who would add a patty everytime he came in, and when I say add a patty I mean add one to whatever his previous record was. The last time I saw him his burger consisted of 6 6oz patties, 10 pieces of cheddar cheese, 5 grilled pineapple rings, about a cup of teriyaki plus the lettuce tomato mayo all on a bun. The burger was literally a foot tall standing up.....finished every bite of it.
Chef here. Two 9 oz burgers isn't really that big of a deal. The weight of meat on a menu refers to the uncooked weight. Once you grill or fry the meat, it shrinks due to fat melting and water evaporating etc, so you really just end up with a 6-7 oz burger patty.
A former coworker of mine would often go to Subway for lunch. He usually got a 6" Cold Cut sandwich with double meat, which turned out to actually cost more than just getting the footlong. I pointed it out to him several times but he refused to acknowledge the fact that he was being an idiot.
That's probably true, but I'm 100% certain this guy didn't count calories. He was also awful with managing his money. He's one of those people who does everything the same way no matter how often people suggest better alternatives.

I'd rather have double meat and not double bread personally.
When was this? The math doesn't add up. Being that this is a sandwich that I get, I don't ever remember double meat on a 6 inch costing more than a foot long.
6 inch cold cut is 3.50, double meat 1.25. Total 4.75
12 inch is 5.50
This was ~4 years ago? To be fair I don't remember looking at a receipt. But I just remember that whatever he got with double meat (maybe it wasn't the cold cut) it ended up costing more than the standard footlong. This was right around when their $5 Footlong promo thing started and not all footlong sandwiches were yet $5-ish.
But from these other responses it appears I must be smoking crack for thinking it was an odd thing to do.

Quote a few years back, a co-worker would order a foot long sandwich on 6 inches of bread. It was cheaper than double meat/cheese on a 6", and had a better ratio than a foot long (or so he said). So at some point, in some markets, it was a thing.

I worked at subway when they introduced the Feast. We all fought over who got to keep the plastic sample sandwich but in the end the manager just threw it in storage. Also, barely anyone ordered it.
I have ordered this for my husband before. He is 5'9" and 160 pounds. He has a physically demanding job that allows him to eat ten million calories a day and still remain on the skinny side.
idk about weird, but that sounds delicious. If I could have it like that for really close to the same price as a regular BMT with veg+sauce I'd probably have it like that sometimes.

I'm not sure I could manage it without being damn hungry and I never am at subway, but that looks like a hella nice sandwich. I would ask for some lettuce and tomato though. So maybe have like 6 times the cheese.
Oh man, the Subway I frequented when I lived in Norfolk was awesome. This was back when they had the wraps and they'd put so many veggies in there it was bigger around than both my fists together. So damn good. Moved to Hawaii and they acted like lettuce was fucking gold leaf.
Spicy Italian with oil and vinegar is the best sandwich there. I normally just get mine with provolone, olives and red onions. Seriously the best thing there.
I once ordered the spooky spicy italian. The sandwich artist looked at me like I was insane and asked me if I meant salami.

Yeah "minority" doesn't factor into it I don't think. At my local subway, the manager is from the Philippines, and he barely speaks any english. However, if I ask for extra anything, he gets this crazy grin and just loads up the sandwich with whatever you wanted more of. I asked for some extra olives last time, and he gave me a big mitt full of olives.

Wow a thread I'm actually qualified to post in.
I've worked at Subway for only a couple of months, and yet I've had some outrageous requests.
One girl wanted her ham and turkey slices sliced in quarters. Weird, but doable. Until she started telling me the order they were to be placed and arranged on the sandwich. And not just ham/turkey/ham/etc, I'm talking full on ham/turkey/ham/ham/turkey/ham/turkey/etc with the predictability of pi. We're talking 32 pieces of sliced meat, each the size of an oreo. I was in complete disbelief.
Of course you have the semi-oddball who will tell you exactly how much of something they want ("four spinach leaves" or "3 tomatoes") but I will never understand the thinking of the guy who only wants one olive, and wants it hidden in his turkey italiano. He literally turned around and waited till it was out of sight. I didn't know what to do so I just stuck it under one of his pepperoni slices.
Then you have the people with just odd combinations, like steak and tuna with marinara sauce, or, my favorite, chicken teriyaki with buffalo chicken, bacon, honey mustard, ranch, lite mayo, and a whole shaker full of oregano. All on Flatbread. Thing looked like a lab experiment gone wrong.
Then the person who wanted their Doritos crunched up and mixed with their meatball, then double toasted. Another person did a similar thing with cookies, except it was on a personal pizza instead of a sandwhich. I'm dead serious when I say they asked for all 3 of their macadamia cookies to be placed on their pizza, covered with cheese, and baked.
People are weird as hell. Subway has at least taught me that.
The idea of someone playing the equivalent of Russian Roulette with an olive in a sandwich is fucking hilarious for me. I'm trying not to look too weird as I keep laughing.
One of my regulars asked for a meatball salad once. Technically, anything that can be put on a sandwich can be made into a salad, so I was forced to comply. Not the most grotesque thing I ever made for a customer, but certainly one of the most unsettling.
I didn't work at Subway, but at another (better) sandwich place that delivers so fast it might just, in fact, freak you out.
For people who wanted to watch their carbs, you could get a wrap of sorts, where you'd have a couple of big leaves of lettuce instead of bread. We had one customer who would order a double tuna, double mayo, and double avocado "sandwich", but as a wrap. I don't know how he ate it or why, but at least he tipped well!
One woman would always come in once or twice a week and just buy a few loaves of bread at a time and nothing else. She told us she liked to make her own sandwiches at home. Whatever, not that weird, but it was annoying because it would some times deplete us of our the bread we had pulled out of the freezer we had for the day. There was pretty tight inventory control so we only pulled so many loaves a day, and she was buying the equivalent of 6-10 sandwiches without anything else.
Another time a mid-30s woman came in, pretty attractive. She ordered a roast beef sandwich with, I quote, "extra mayonnaise. I love it creamy" while winking at me. The thing is I really hate mayonnaise so I was both repulsed and turned on. One of my first confused boners ever tbh.

I don't get how her buying 6 loafs of bread isnt like any other customer coming in and buying 6 subs.
Took me about a year to figure out that he wasn't saying "spread the news on mayonnaise nationwide", just because I heard it that way the first time and it got stuck in my head. Not that that makes any sense.
My time to shine! This will probably just get burried like most of my other posts though, late to the party like always. ANYWAYS I haven't worked at Subway in years but my absolute favorite was this man who came in one night and asked for a Feast (like others have said, its mostly discontinued but unlike others have said, its not all the meats it's basically just a double Club sandwich.) He wanted two of them. I said "ok, what else do you want on it?" He asked if he could get more meat. I told him he could get as much as he was willing to pay for. So he asked for everything. ALL OF IT. He got a FULL PORTION of EVERY SANDWICH on ONE bread (well actually two, I laid it down flat and put another whole loaf on top. Twice. I'm talking tuna on top of meatball on top of chicken and philly steak and cold cut and ect. Even the repeat ones, like chicken-bacon -ranch and buffalo chicken or steak and the bigger steak I can't remember the name. We had two microwaves and two toasters and I had them both working to make this dude's subs. It took almost 40 minutes just to construct these monstrosities. Now, two things. One, its cheaper to get "double meat" than it is to get another sandwhich so maybe this dude is doing that and has his own bread at home. Nope. This shit was all mushed together like some EpicMealTime shit. 2 Maybe he was blazed and a jackass kid? Nope. 500 pound 60 year old black guy with a cane who said they were for his wife, she eats ONE A DAY and that he came to us since other Subways stopped making them for him. It took our manager almost half an hour to figure out how to charge him for it since extra portions of different meats cost different prices and it trying to put it in the regular way maxed out the system. To top it all off, I shit you not, he wanted every veggie. Then he asked for extra portions of those veggies. It got insane very fast. He ended up paying some 75 dollars for technically 2 sammiches.
BONUS ROUND: Found a picture of it. It took 4 paper sheets to completely wrap. http://imgur.com/tFm7j99

These are so much more impressive in my imagination than the reality of the picture.
Yeah, like, maybe I just got carried away, but I am picturing this 4 foot long monstrosity that might reach out and grab any small children to add to the pile of meat.
Not a subway worker, but I've eaten there in India many times when I was there for work. (Don't judge me. This was lunch and I ate good Indian food for dinner)
Indian people love their sauces. So one day I'm behind a gal who wants: mayo, teriyaki, bbq, honey mustard, mint chutney, sweet onion. At that point I had to turn around, not look at her order, and try my best not to listen to the other things going onto it.
Edit: Said this happened once, but I saw this several times.
Different counties have different sauces. When I lived in Australia I discovered the magic of sweet chili sauce on a sandwich. Have never seen that in an American subway.
Wish I could remember if I'd seen anything else weird. I don't recall if they had something different in Scotland, and the subway in Afghanistan was just a sad, sad affair that shouldn't be mentioned.
I assure you, it is a thing. After seeing their tandoori chicken pizzas, and more bizarrely the Pizza Hut pizzas with barbecue sauce instead of tomato sauce, it didn't seem too weird.
Agreed. With a single mayo I'd eat the fuck out of that

A half egg, half tuna, toasted twice before the tuna and egg salad are put on with the bread as flat as you can get it not with the 2 foot long setting because shes difficult you have to physically take out the bread and put it back in. finally it Has HAS to have Perfectly spaced cheese and she always comes in the middle of the damn lunch rush
In my town we have a guy who comes in and gets a tuna flattiza. You have to take the flatbread toast it for 30ish secs (cause we stoped serving it normally) then line it with marinara and tuna. Then spinach, olives, jalapenos, green peppers, yellow peppers, and 2 FUCKING TOMATOES. CUT UP. THEN MORE GOD DAMN SPINACH. THEN TOAST THE FUCKER AGAIN. LIKE HOLY SHIT. EVERY FUCKING DAY. FUCK YOU TONY.
Cheetos on PB&J. Don't judge, it was a rough childhood.

I can't believe he made you put the chips on the sandwich. I always put Doritos on my sub but I put them on myself when I sit down it never occurred to me to make the sandwich guy do it.
He also wanted the cheese to be spread out onto the very ends of the sub. I thought it was weird so I asked him and he said it was like an appetizer and a dessert for his lunch. I figured I wasn't getting paid enough to argue so put all his olives on and went on my break.
Not too long ago, I was talking to my manager about the guy. He told me that this guy had actually sat there, taking each individual olive out and counting them on a little scorecard. The guy had come up to my manager and apparently, he said with the sternest look on his face "I counted 36 olives here. I want a refund". Of course, I didn't hear any of this since I was on my break. My manager then goes to the till and asks him for the receipt and how much the sub cost. So this customer from hell hands over the receipt, on which is written $3.50. Everyone in the Subway then realized that he wasn't a customer at all; he was 500 ft. tall and from the paleolithic era.
Needless to say, he didn't come back.

"Get that goddamn Loch Ness monster out of my house".
It's a South Park joke. Chef's father tells stories about someone trying to get money from him until he realises they want exactly $3.50. Then their cover is blown and he realises it's the Loch Ness monster. No other information is given other than his wife gives the monster money when he's not around so it keeps coming back for more.
He doesn't comment often because it's more funny if you aren't expecting it. But now that everybody keeps referencing it everywhere he can't really do surprise people anymore.

Honestly I don't find these funny in the slightest. You get me all worked up into a good story, and then say some bullshit that clues me in to it all being a joke. If you're gonna lie be original. I rage so fucking hard at these Loch Ness monster bullshit stories.
[deleted] · 16 points · Posted at 09:30:19 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
This is a ridiculously stupid joke that has been circulating for a while now. It always involves some bizarre, intriguing lead up only to be let down by a lochness monster line. Tree Fiddy is the $3.50 that OP mentions, which is also another part of the joke. Google "tree fiddy loch ness" for more information.
At any rate, I hadn't seen this for a while and was enjoying it. But this idiotic, sub-par attempt at a 'rick roll' has returned and is just... tasteless. Reddit beat this fucking thing to death ages ago but some smarmy moron always has to show up and hurr durr his way through a thread to prove exactly how unoriginal he is.

Look man, if you don't let your true feelings out, they will fester inside you until ... Oh wait, carry on.
I saw that coming but at the same time, I believed it was real because people will do that shit. I had a woman yell at me once because she wanted a 1-pound swordfish steak but it weighed .99
All of them are essentially long stories that end in a specific, unsatisfying ending. So Loch Ness Monster is a classic but you could end it with other ones that each have their own associated phrases. It's one of those things that's only really funny the more you see it and the more irritating it is, in an unexpected way.

Either the guy who would get a double-meat, double-cheese cold-cut which he then proceeded to drown in a bottle of chipotle sauce, or the kid who got a double-meat salami with triple bacon and extra cheese.
I try not to judge customers, but it boggled my mind that a mother would let her kid order that.
Theres a couple. First I had a lady that looked like New York from Flava of Love. she wanted me to cut the bread all the way through as opposed to the weird side cut we're supposed to do. then wanted the bottom slice covered in cheese, then just that toasted. Then lettuce covering the whole thing, then dressing, meat, and the rest of the veggies in that order. Replace the top and toast again. As far as sandwich construction goes I understand it but I had to basically go from one end of the line to the other and back again which is a bitch when it's busy.
The second was another mall employe. She was about 5 foot nothing and weighed 90 pounds in the rain. She always got a six inch sub, two slices of ham (normal is four) no cheese or veg, but she wanted what seemed like half the bottle of mayo. I learned her coffee order from the not starbucks across the way and it was a small black with a little milk and 10 sugars. Wasn't surprised when I found that out.

The toasted vegetables are the worst! I worked the register at Subway 1 day a week at my college in the food court and those people always pissed me off.
So by that standard there's no toast/bread either.

Being a sandwich artist was my part time job in uni back in the day. The guy who worked at the video store next to me came in and wanted a sub for when he planned to get high after work. He was a thin guy, probably in his late teens.
Anyway, foot long Cold Cut Trio with double meatballs/marinara sauce on top with Chicken Teriyaki on top of that and mayo on top of that.
I think I just told him to give me $10 and didn't bother ringing it in.
I didn't see him again after that so I just assume I killed him.
Guy came in and his friends made him a bet to see if he could eat a footlong with every single meat. This thing weighed about 1.5Kg and cost him $50 (Australian). Yes I was able to wrap it up...
My friend worked at Subway, and provided the monstrosity to three of my friends. This was during the time that Subway was running the angus beef burger promotion, so it actually had all the standard meats & cheeses + angus, egg patties, & marinara sauce.
Only 1 of my friends was brave enough to do the footlong. They all agreed, the marinara sauce is an absolutely essential ingredient
The sandwich itself wasn't weird, but the context was. Had a girl come in at about 10 in the morning in her PJ's. She comes to the counter and asks what sub can have the most meat (hur hur). I inform her that she could get, I dunno, double meat steak with bacon. So that's what she orders, no cheese, no salad, no sauce. As I'm ringing up this meathemoth, I ask her why she wanted such a meaty sub. She tells me that she's been vegetarian for the past ten (I think) years and woke up that morning wanting to eat meat.
This lady that would get lunch at the same time as me would ask for the fluffy part of the bread to be scooped out, then the the crust filled with 3x mayo, 3x olives, 3x pickles, 1x ranch then the bottom crust 2x ham 2x cheese. Pretty much every day.
Also, I hope some people from jersey mike's read this thread and stop giving me that fucking look when I ask for light lettuce on my italian. I want a fucking sandwich with coldcuts and toppings not a fucking pound of shredded lettuce topped with meat and bread and I don't want it with a badittude.
I went to Subway with my boss once on a business trip. His instructions were, and I quote, "An uncomfortable amount of tomatoes. No. More." The poor girl making the sandwich was new and basically gave him the entire container.
I'll be sure to try that next time I go to subway... Which might be today I'm kinda fiendin for a Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki with Lettuce Onions Pickles Banana Peppers Olives Bacon and Swiss with an uncomfortable amount of sweet onion sauce and chipotle sauce. It's the best sandwich ever. I go in once a week to get it the one guy just knows at this point and makes it as soon as I walk in.
I had a customer order a foot long buffalo chicken sandwich with pepper jack cheese. I toasted it for him and then he proceeded to ask me for a "disgusting amount of onions and jalapeños". He then asked for mustard and chipotle southwest sauce.
After it was all said and done I asked him why his tastes were so oddly specific. He said that he grew up in a large family, and that if he would order a normal tasting sandwich his other siblings would steal it from him and eat it when he wasn't paying attention. So after a while he learned to eat disgusting foods so no one would take them anymore.
Never had a 'weird' sandwich as far as what was in it, but one woman who came in every monday INSISTED that the only way we could make her sandwich was to cut the hinge of the bread before we started putting stuff on it, like a hoagie. She'd freak out if we cut it after, so we'd have to balance everything on one side of the sub. It was irritating.
One guy called his sandwich surf and turf...which was just Steak and seafood sensation(imitation crab mixed with 2 cups of mayo).
Also a suprisingly large amount of people get sweet onion chicken teriyaki with whole eggs plus all the veggies and usually ranch and mayo and bbq sauce.
Or veggie patties with egg and all the sauces and extra sriracha and buffalo.
Not subway, but I work at a deli, and someone orders a sub with some of literally everything on it. This guy comes in every week and gets the same sub.

A cold cut with four different sauces and no other toppings. 5 days a week for a year and a half I was there
hard to believe a person could survive 18 months on that kind of diet, but I don't doubt it. This guy I've worked with for about 8 months now is known for his 2-lunch rotation. His two lunches are one of the following
2 cans of ravioli & a bag of chips
a heaping plate of ~30 chicken nuggets

My sister ordered a six inch sub with only carrots on.

Not a weird order but how he did it was weird.
I had a buddy in college who would ask for "literally a shit tonne of pickles" and he meant it, I feel like he would have 4 or 5 sandwiches worth on 1 sandwich, along with double meat, double cheese and other toppings.
I made a turkey sandwich that they requested raspberry cheese cake cookies on. They sell them in my subway around Valentines day. It grossed me out but the lady was happy.
Saeta44 · 2 points · Posted at 05:48:20 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
No bread whatsoever. This wasn't an "unwich" with lettuce leaves as the "bread," this was literally meat and pickles on the paper wrapper, slathered with mustard. The woman ordered all of this and had me redo it once. Even had me cut it in half, then ate the whole thing with a fork. She would not accept this in a bowl, as a wrap, or as a makeshift salad.
No idea. Almost seemed insulted when my manager double-checked that this is what she actually wanted and that I hadn't botched her order somehow.
I used to work at a togos, and the weird concoction is the roast beef sandwich with the small container of roast beef is soaked in, I always wondered why anyone would go curry style on pure juice.
I've had a homeless man come up to me and order up in the store, but my manager rung him up and he had no money so she said he had to leave and the sandwich was left to sit. I asked for a lunch break and after cleaning out the trash I saw him walking and gave him his sub outside
A flatbread. Just a flatbread, nothing on it. It's a huge waste of money too because we have to ring it up as a Veggie with no veggies and no cheese, so some girl paid $6 for a toasted piece of flatbread.
I worked at Subway from 2007 to 2008, and my coworkers and I came up with a few sandwiches for our "secret menu" (like anyone in the food industry does when they're bored, really). One, called the DHS, sounds horrifically disgusting, but it is seriously one of the tastiest sandwiches I've ever eaten, and everyone we've convinced to try it was surprised at how good it was.
• Italian herbs & cheese
• tuna
• onion, green pepper, pickle, banana pepper, jalapeno (diced)
• bacon & chicken teriyaki (microwaved)
• shredded cheese
• small amount of lettuce or spinach
• small amount of ranch, honey mustard & chipotle
Edit: there's also this monstrosity. I'm not the one who made it, though.

Had a guy in the other week who asked for "plenty of jalapenos."
I of course obliged and put what I deemed "plenty" on there. He asked me to keep going. So I did. He asked again, and again, and again. Eventually there was a pile of them bigger than people usually get when they ask for extra lettuce. I had actually had to warn him I was going to have to charge him extra because he had got nearly half a container on this one meatball sub.
Eventually the salad (literally just the jalapenos) was complete, and we moved onto sauce. Seeing that this gent obviously preferred the spicy things in life, I recommended the hot chilli sauce. His response "Oooo no thanks. I had that before. Far too spicy. Just smother it in mayo to cool it down a little please.".........
Still, it kept my night shift interesting for a while!

LPT: if you're getting a meatball sub, ask for a u-gouge or u-cut on your bread. We cut the bread into a little boat shape, that way your meaty goodness doesn't fall out as easily.
I haven't made that many weird sandwiches but one guy asked for "a lot of vinegar", so I asked him to tell me 'when'. I think he zoned out or something because he was silent for a good 6 swipes of vinegar before he panicked and went "not that much!!!!!" Then we both kind of looked at each other in stunned silence. I offered to make him a new one but he declined and, in a very defeated whisper, said "it's too late..."
Not subway but i worked at tim horton's and the weirdest sandwich . This pregnant lady ordered an egg salad sandwich with strawberry jam... I wanted to puke
Not really a weird sandwich but these events are somewhat relevant.
One had a person ask for "Italian herb and Chinese bread"
Another time I was on salads and a lady said "I'll have all salads, BUT none of those filthy Filipinos" my coworker who was next to me, was Filipino.
(She meant jalapeños)
I'm aparently the one who always get a weird sandwich. I just never want any sauce on it. The employees seem to find it difficult to cope with my strange order
Used to work at Subway quite a few years ago, but would get a few women that would basically want me to put an entire bottle worth of mayo and then some on basically a piece of plain bread. They wouldn't even try to order a sandwich, they would just say they want bread and all of the mayo that I had there today.
A mom would come in with her daughter and order a footlong on white with just mayo and a TON of olives.
Also had a neck beard order a double meat Feast (all the deli meats on one sub) with all the dressings. He boasted about how he could eat it in less than 5 mins. He sat with his friends in the dining room and gobbled that sub down so fast. After he walked around like a fucking WWE wrestler winning a belt.
Not at subway, but at Panera. I was buddies with the cashier so I ordered a panini but I asked them to take off every ingredient expect for the chipotle mayo. So I got "grilled" chipotle mayo on a piece of hot panini-paper. With chips on the side.
One lady came in and got a tuna sandwich, then asked from more toppings than one can realistically fit on a 12 inch sub. She then proceeded to demand I put about half a bottle of mayo on it ( in addition to the may already in the tuna) and ask for the sandwhich to be cut in fourths. When some of the mayo inevitably got on the outside of the bread because all of the toppings came out during the slicing, she got very upset and yelled.

The "Only cheese" sandwich confused me the most. I could never understand why people came in to order a cheese only sandwich. Then if they toasted it, it was even weirder.

I had this guy ask for a flatbread sweet onion chicken teriyaki with white chocolate macadamia cookies toasted on it. I had to ask him if he was serious. The smell of it after it came out of the toaster was absolutely disgusting.

When I first started going to subway, I ordered some named sandwich with "everything" on it. What I THOUGHT that meant was that particular sandwich with everything that's supposed to come with it, kind of like how a big mac has pickles. But what it ACTUALLY means is that fucking EVERYTHING went on it. I ended up with a footlong filled with absolutely everything on it. By the time that the poor sandwich "artist" was half way through, I was just too embarrassed to speak up about it. So I went home and threw my disgusting abomination in the garbage.
You were right. I work at a place similar to Subway except we make pizza, and if a customer asks for one of our signature pizzas with everything on it, we put all the stuff that comes on that pizza on it... not EVERY topping we have on it, lol.
Not Subway but I managed a deli in a hoighty-toighty grocery store that sold the same shit for a higher price. We would use any item from the store as an ingredient if they so chose. One guy trying to look like he's fancy had me make a pate and crumbled bleu cheese sandwich. The thing cost him almost $20 bucks and we got to watch him choke down a few bites and pretend to save the rest. It smelled like butthole.
I once had a girl order a foot long tuna sandwich with olives and extra mayonnaise, and then toast it (with the olives) and then add lettuce. It was super weird, but what was weirder was that the girl seemed to be wanting to get a reaction from me (she was the type of middle school girl with green streaks in her hair and wore different colored nail polish on each finger). I knew she just wanted me to call her weird so she could try and embrace it, so my nonchalantness made it a very satisfying order on my part.
I get funny looks from the staff at subway when I ask for BOTH tomato AND cucumber, like i'm the first person to ever think about combining the two.
It didn't bother me the first time since the staff member could have just had 'that' face or the expression was from something else. Its happened twice since then at different subways but they also asked me to confirm, like somehow they had misheard me.
TLDR Food Tip: Mix tomato and cucumber, they work.
Not necessarily weird but still strange. I worked there 8 and a half years ago and every day a guy would come in twice a day and get the same sandwich. Footlong wheat, chicken strip microwaved, all the veggies but with 4 or 5 fistfulls of olives. Never wanted it cut either. I work next to the place now and I still see him go by every day.
At the subway I worked at we had Cold Cut Guy. He and 2 other members of his family were lactose intolerant so his sandwiches were always a PIA. 5 sandwiches, all cold cuts. 2 with cheese and a shit ton of mayo. And then you had to switch gloves and knives and wash your hands and wipe down the area we prep the sandwich on. It took like a half hour.
Had a customer who did au juis dipped roast beef with every single dressing and veggie and blue cheese. He was our mail guy but we didn't know his name. We just referred to him as Cranky because he was always in a bad mood.

I worked there for a while and there were two that I found odd. One was tuna and ham, the other was a double meat Feast (every one of our meats so roast beef, turkey, ham, peporoni, salami, bacon, whatever else we have on hand and sometimes all the cheeses...ew).
I made a flatbread & American cheese sandwich for a customer today. That's all I've got though.

I didn't work at subway, but I worked at Goodcents. It's exactly like subway but only in the Midwest (to my knowledge). I shit you not, my very first day on the job (after training) a man came in, asked for a penny club. I sliced it, put it on his bread, threw the cheese on there, and asked if he'd like the standard dressing.
- "Yeah, but before you do that, do you mind getting a cup of water and dipping your fingers in there and sprinkling some on my sandwich?"
- "uhm. Seriously?"
- "yeah"
- "okay"
My little brother once asked me to make him a triple meat Subway Club footlong, which was 24 pieces of turkey, 24 pieces of ham, and 18 pieces of roast beef. If my managers had even given a single fuck they wouldn't have let me take it home, but they didn't, and so I got the satisfaction of saying "I told you it would be disgusting" when he actually tried to eat it.
Not at a Subway, but worked at a small sandwich shop in a small town. A regular would order a peanut butter and mayo sandwich. He would only order it from me because he knew I wouldn't give him shit about it. He and his buddy would eat lunch and hang out for a few hours almost every weekday and sometimes on weekends.
A manager type who didn't do much but got away with it because she was close friends with the owner, would make American cheese with mayo only on white bread. She was the worst. She wouldn't rinse dishes before dropping them in my brand new dish water.

I remember as a kid my mom was pregnant to my younger brother, and she would always get a mustard meatball cold cut with no mayo and extra cheese. It was... Amazing when I tried one.
That sounds pretty decent. Then again I'm the guy who likes mustard on my sloppy joes.

Not me, but my old manager told me that a petite girl came in and ordered a foot long veggie. The veggies consisted of 5 handfuls of olives and half a bottle of mayo. She then sat in the lobby and ate the whole thing.
Foot long Italian sub with cold cut and nothing else on it except for a shit ton of mustard and tomatoes. The guy ate it in the store and it was weird. He'd take the tomatoes out, wipe them in more mustard and then eat them and once they were gone he'd eat it like a normal sandwich.
If you order a Gargantuan in an Unwich(our lettuce wraps)
I fucking hate you, especially when you get extra mayo and extra everything. Ugh, it ruins the structural integrity of the sandwich and you'd be better off if I just threw the meat at your face.
Ordering a gargantuan without a bun thinking the lack of bun somehow makes it healthier is like thinking that because you had a diet soda with lunch, it evens out your inhaling a banana split for dessert. Either course of action(if it's for cutting calories/carbs, rather than pure taste preference/inability to handle bread products in case of the sandwich) is moronic.

I'm just going to bring up the point of severe diabetics. The amount of carbs in just the Garg alone is pretty much over what they're allowed to have for an entire meal. So, in substituting the bread for an unwich, while it's still not super healthy, it won't require them to shoot themselves with a shitload of insulin just to handle it.
I know it's got nothing to do with a weird sandwich but this a mildly interesting TIL...
I live near the Subway that Jared famously walked to every day. It's attached to an apartment building and Jared lived in one of those apartments. It's at most a 300 foot round-trip.

I wasn't an employee but a kid in his early teens in front of me ordered a foot long sandwich with turkey and mayonnaise. But it wasn't just a little squirt of mayo. He kept asking the sandwich artist for more and more. It got to the point that both sides of the sandwich were covered with a THICK layer of mayonnaise. You couldn't see any part of the bread or turkey. The sandwich artist finally said that it was going to cost the kid more than a normal sandwich because it was so much mayo. He finally told the sandwich artist it was enough and when the artist closed the sandwich (with not much pressure at all), mayo squirt out from everywhere. I think I may have thrown up in my mouth a little.
Side note, the kid was with his mom and she didn't seem bothered by this whole ordeal. They were both in very fit shape as well.
I put a few pickles between two slices of bread and asked, "Anything else?"
"Can I have more?"
I spread a few more pickles on and looked up at her.
"...Can I have more?"
I grab a handful of pickles, still dripping with vinegar, and slop them onto the bread.
"Is that enough?"
"Can I have more?"
I proceeded to empty the pickle bin, handful by handful, onto the bread, which was now soaked in vinegar.
"Do you want more than that?"
"Nope. That's good."
I wrapped the sandwich and she paid for it. No chips. No drink. No cookie. Then she took the sandwich to a table and I watched as she ate the entire thing.
Philly steak with double meat, but not more steak... He wanted the seafood added on. Two. He would get twofootlongs. As if the steak wasn't bad enough alone...
Worked there when I was 16 and every weekend without fail thus guy came in and got a double meat sub on white with seafood salad and steak, heated, with cheese and Southwest sauce. Fucking disgusting. It smelled like imitation crab and ass.
Another regular always got a footlong double meat tuna sub, extra extra regular mayo, extra olives, triple cheese, then even more mayo.
I worked there ages ago. I had one guy order the sweet onion chicken teriyaki, with honey mustard, banana peppers, and the scrambled egg stuff (liquid eggs from the carton, cooked obviously)
Another guy once ordered a spinach salad with marinara sauce. No meatballs. Maybe some parm cheese.... I just thought it was weird

My greatest accomplishment is I somehow made a sandwich that tasted like a taco.
Once I had someone ask me to crumble up a macadamia nut cookie and put it on their sandwich.
On the other hand, if you work there, you know how to give other subways the biggest nightmares.
I used to go into an opposing subway and ask for a double meat meatball on Flatbread with every veggie. After they put it all on I would then ask for guacamole. It is Frightening how impossible that thing is to close. The icing on the cake is I was wearing my subway hat while I ordered. Bastard knew what I was doing.
When I worked at subway in High School a kid came in and you could tell he was pretty high. He couldn't decide if he wanted a meatball sub or a seafood sensation sub, so he decided to get a foot-long double meat with each of the two on the sub and asked for it toasted. It was the most disgusting thing I have ever made.
I had a customer come in one time. It was a normal sandwich until he asked for pepper. I kept sprinkling it on and he told me to keep going. Then he suggested I just scoop it out of the shaker. The sub was like 1/4 pepper, gross..
This sandwich is not weird but nasty in my opinion. A frequent customer orders a footlong meatball marinara on white with double cheese and extra toasted. Then he asks for "a bit of lettuce" since he's trying to eat healthier. Loads of parmesan cheese, one fourth of a bottle of mayonaisse, and lots ranch. It was soggy and squishy and gross.
Mayonnaise sandwich. I'm not making this up because of "Murcia" she wasn't even obese, but she would come in about once a week and order a "veggie" sub with only cheese and about a 2 inch thick layer of mayonnaise. I cringe just thinking about it.
i was behind a person that ordered only bacon with a small amount of lettuce with about a cup of ranch.

Used to work at Subway. The only one I can really remember is a regular who would order a footlong (I think it was on flatbread but it may have been white) and get double chicken breasts (four chicken breasts in total) and get jalapenos toasted on it. Nothing else would go on the sub. Just double chicken breasts and jalapenos. God, that thing would hurt my nose when it came out of the oven.
I have given the subway workers a few good orders. Sometimes I get:
all meat, I'm talking a generous portion of every damn meat in your little meat station. And then extra everything you just put on it. Regular portion of cheese. No veggies. Light dressing.
I will put an oatmeal cookie on a sandwich sometimes. It's basically a bread product, and the raisins sweeten the sandwich. Was high the first time I ordered it. Was good.
Most expensive sub I ever ordered (also my fave):
I asked for a footlong bacon egg and cheese. I specifically asked for enough bacon to give me a heart attack. I had to tell the sandwich artist 3 times to add more. It cost me $18 for the sub. Best. Fucking. Breakfast sandwich. Ever.
As a former employee, i just wanna say, white trash people really love the fucking cold cut combo. The weirdest sandwich i made was definitely for myself though at the end of my shift: teriyaki chicken, burger patty thing, ham, all cheese types (american, swiss, provolone, and pepperjack), bacon, onion, toastthatbitch, lettuce, tomato, olives, banana peppers, jalapenos, sriracha, southwest, sweetonion, ranch, ring it up as a ham, grab a bag of chips (or 3), and getthefuckout. Delicious sandwich btw. i hated that job. I will never look at tuna the same way...
Not a subway worker. But I had this made once. If remember correctly it was black forest ham, turkey breast, tuna, crab, shit ton of cheese, tomatoes, spinach, lots of mayo, lots of Chipotle sauce. It may have been toasted. Got through maybe 8 inches and couldnt finish.
Subway employees probably judged me a lot. Before I discovered my love for peppers and onions, my sandwich was Italian bread, lettuce, american cheese, cucumbers, and olive oil. I'm a picky vegetarian :P
Does anyone remember how Subway once cut their bread? They would cut a "V" into the sandwich, creating a "top" and trough like "bottom". When transitioning from this method to the new (current method), I would often see the employees struggle and try to cram everything into what looked like a long twelve inch pita sub.
Also, remember when sanitary gloves were not part of standard operation? I remember people handling money, then go straight into the lettuce to top off the next customer. Circa 1998-1999ish. Can't believe this was even allowed?!

It has to be when a customer came in and ordered 3 footlongs steak and cheese, no veggies, just cheese and steak. Then the customer proceeds to tell me use a half a bottle of sweet onion sauce on each sandwich. The sandwich was a complete sloppy mess, and just fall apart.
I don't know if this is classified as weird, but certainly the strangest sandwich I've ever made. My boyfriend came in ordered this monster: It was a foot long roasted chicken on italian herb and cheese, with marinara sauce, eight pepperoni slices, eight pepperjack slices, light lettuce, onions, 11 jalapenos, 9 banana peppers, two lines of hot sauce, one of southwest sauce, salt, pepper, Parmesan, and oregano.
Bonus Another guy "I want a spicy Italian, on white bread with american cheese, because I'm an Amuurrrican."
I listened to a guy order a pretty weird sandwich a month ago. It was a 6 inch Italian herbs and cheese, salami, pepperoni, cheddar cheese, toasted, a grip of pickles (like double or triple what someone usually gets on a sandwich), a little bit of lettuce, ranch dressing, salt and pepper, and parmesan cheese. I've eaten some odd combinations of food stoned before, but this weirded me out to the point that I still remember the exact order a month later.
I had a lady ask me for a foot long on wheat bread. She never told me what kind of sandwich or meat she wanted but she said to scrape out all the inner bread of the sandwich. Then she asked me to fill in both sides tjat had been scrapped out with mayonnaise. She payed for it and left...
Weirdest personally was probably a regular who came in about 3 times a week would get just American cheese, the bread covered in olives just a full sheet of them, and then to top it off a heavy dousing of vinegar to the point where the bread was almost soaked.
This was years ago, but someone ordered a spicy italian with double meat and extra, extra mayo. The footlong has 10 salami and 10 pepperoni slices so all together the guy had 40 pieces of meat on the sandwich. The fun part was trying to close the damn thing and cut it with all of the mayo and meat grease mixing together to create a slip n slide
I'm so glad you asked. I worked at a subway for 5 years- all the way through high school and a couple years into college. I had a guy so mad that we were out of provolone cheese ("How can you advertise an Italian sandwhich without Italian cheese?!?") that he chased me into the back of the store and threatened my life- no joke. The new girl I was training called the cops. The guy finally got spooked and just left. The rules changed so that just 2 teenage girls couldn't close the restaurant alone anymore (we were open until 2am).

I'm from Liverpool, UK. I have a well spoken Scouse accent (closest example is listen to some interviews with the Beatles). When I went to New York, my accent was understood, Chicago my accent was understood, LA my accent was understood. In Florida there was a Middle Aged Mexican lady who could not understand me when I said Ham.... Ham.... Out of everything else. Even a Mexican customer in line behind me said what the fuck
A footlong meatball on flat bread with all the veggies and all the dressings. She then pulls out a container of cool whip and asks me put half of it on the sandwich and sprinkle salt on top of it. So yeah...

Not a worker, but I was in line, and this larger woman asked for EVERY meat they had. The guy couldn't close the sandwich properly. When he rang it up, she got mad that it wasn't $5 she was mad.
Don't work at subway but have a similar set up. A guy ordered tuna with every sauce we have except for BBQ...ketchup, mayo, chipotle, honey mustard, miracle whip, horseradish, buffalo, and pesto with extra everything (meat, mayo, cheese, oil, and vinegar)...on a six inch roll with all the veggies.

Former subway worker here. There was a guy that got a tuna and chicken sandwich with EXTRA EXTRA EXTRA mayo. No veggies.

a friend who works at subway says the weirdest order she gets is a guy who comes in every week and just gets a foot long with like 5 or 6 different cheeses on it and nothing else. He always offers to let her try it because he says its really good, but she respectfully declines, lol.
A girl I worked with would always make herself meatball and seafood salads. Would not recommend.

When I trained my little brother to start working he made a sandwich for a super awkward girl, to begin she was super hard to understand and super quiet. The next thing she does she pulls out her Yu-Gi-Oh cards and brags about her newest card. The end result of a sandwich is white bread, sweet onion sauce, and hot sauce. I had nope'd my way out when she pulled out the yugioh cards so when my brother came to the back he told me about the sandwich she ordered and he charged her full price ($5) for the foot long. I went out into the lobby with a cleaning rag and wiped down a table near by to get a closer look and sure enough she's happily eating a soft loaf of smashed bread with reddish-brown sauce pouring out of the back onto the table. I ran to the back and told my brother in one week he had made the weirdest sandwich me and my subway friends had seen in 4 years. Apparently she's come back a few times and ordered the same thing in the past few years, I hope she wasn't charged the full price for her bread-sauce.

At our Subway we workers were the weird ones. We'd try to make peanut butter and jelly or coffee or coconut cookies - just whatever we could add to the cookie dough before baking 'em up. Then give them away to our customers because they were usually kind of awful.
The best thing that we did all the time was make pizzas out of the thawed out bread dough. It takes some work, but you can reshape the loaf into a crust, load that bad boy down with every single item on the bar, and bake it in the bread baking oven. We made the whole place smell like pizza and customers would come in all like "what's that???" but it was all for us :)

My wife is slightly weird (albeit nowhere near as weird as some of the other requests), she orders just sliced cheese on plain bread. Nothing else, no condiments or any other fillings. It can't even be grated cheese. It has to be sliced cheese. It can't even be toasted. Just a bloody expensive cheese sandwich.
I don't work there anymore but I can tell you the sandwich I made that I still talk about. A guy came in and ordered a footlong tuna. No big deal right? Then, he wants bacon on it. Okay.. Not common but okay. Then he wants meatballs on it and toasted. We essentially had to charge him for two sandwiches plus 1 footlong of bacon.. I wonder how it tasted.
Used to work at a Subway, my boss recommended trying a tuna and bacon one day.. Can confirm it's good

One time as a customer at Subway I witnessed the customer in front of me, a methy looking lady, order a fairly normal looking sandwich until she reached the end of the line where the worker asks if you want any condiments. She said mayo. Worker adds mayo. She says no, more. He adds another couple of lines.
Then she got legitimately angry. This lady screamed at that poor stoned highschooler to drown her sandwich in mayo so he tentatively held the bottle over it and squeezed while maintaining eye contact with her. After a good 10 seconds he finally said, "tell me when..." and she just curtly replied "I will" without breaking eye contact with her sub.
I shit you not, she didn't say "when" until the dude had to shake the nearly empty bottle to get all the mayo that was coagulated on the sides to stream downwards towards the nozzle. At that point she sort of sighed and said that would do. I COULD NOT see the bread any longer! The guy almost gagged trying to fold and wrap it, with this disgusting thick white mayo just oozing out of every crevice of the paper that he was trying to wrap it in. It oozed out of the second layer too and smeared on the insides of the bag when he slid it in. She paid quickly and left. He had to go in the back and scrub his hands down before serving me.
I'm not a Subway worker, but the sandwich I get every time go there is italian herbs and cheese, ham, american cheese (toasted, duh), pickles, tomatoes, black olives, and ranch. My friends and family have dubbed it the pregnant lady sandwich because it sounds like something a pregnant lady would be craving.
scrolling through this thread and disappointed I'm not seeing any employees that were baffled over the people early August asking for condiment sandwiches...

Had a person in front of me be quite picky once.
Honey oat bread with 1/2 a scoop of tuna, 3 tomato slices, 2 olives, 2 cucumber slices, 1 large spinach leaf, a small amount of carrot and pepper.
I work in a subway/fried chicken place in a truck stop so I make a lot of horrible shit. I had a guy make me take the lid off of my pepper shaker and pour it on his sammich. I had a guy make me take 3 foot longs worth of steak, green peppers onion and olives, ranch and mayo and called it a salad. A toasted tuna with a fuck ton of mayo before I toasted it, lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, olives, tomatoes, green peppers, onions, pickles, banana peppers, jalapenos, chipolte sauce, sriracha, sweet onion, salt, pepper, grated cheese and oregano.

At our local SUBWAY, one of the managers started a sandwich called "Dave", Footlong Italian BMT, on Herb & Cheese bread, With Marinara sauce, pepper cheese, Red onions, Jalapenos, Then toasted, before writing Their name in Southwest sauce, and Dave in BBQ.
This has now progressed to both SUBWAYS in our town, and a couple elsewhere, where you can just ask for "Dave" and get the sandwich without having to instruct. It may be more sauce than sandwich, but it is damn tasty.
One women came in and asked for a ton of mustard on her sandwich. I loaded that sandwich up with mustard and until I couldn't see anything underneath. I asked if that was enough and she said she wanted more. I must have put half the bottle on that sandwich by the time I was done. She looked very pleased with that sandwich at the end though.
This doesn't answer your question but I figured I'd still share it anyway.
I worked there last year for a few months. Some morbidly obese man came in and got the $5 footlong for that month. Can't remember what exactly which sandwich it was, but I remember that he got double everything. Double meat, veggies, etc. AND THEN, when I went to cut it in half, he said, "No it's okay, you don't have to cut it."
All I could picture in my head was this huge dude at home, sitting on his couch, scarfing down that sammich.
Not me but my friend Jim. He'd noticed that the oil he was using on the subs was a lot more bubbly than usual, and they used up most of it during the lunch rush... But he had a feeling something wasn't right.
You see, at his restaraunt they had floor polish that came in a similar container as the oil before they put if in the smaller squeeze tubes, similar color, and they stored them near each other too. Whoever prepped those tubes wasn't paying attention I guess and the floor polish ended up on the food prep line! 50 or more people ate a sandwich made with floor cleaner! And that's a pretoy awful, weird sandwich. The worst part is, not a single person complained if tasted funny, I can only hope no one got sick, that can't possibly be good for you. But no, not a single complaint the taste was off, and when management found out they decided to simply swap out the oil for the correct kind and tell no one.
Someone ordered a footlong white with only heated marinara sauce, untoasted, he made me pile it on until it started overflowing, then avocado on the other side. It was an interesting day of mopping the floor because the store overflowed with meatball sauce.

Yeah I once had this rude bitch of a customer order a sub with literally almost a whole bottle of mayo on it. Every time I looked like I was going to stop adding it she'd bite my head off.
It was disgusting trying to close, cut and wrap that thing. Mayo everywhere.
I don't work at a Subway, but a similar small business sandwich restaurant. I have people ask for this at least once a day.

I don't work for Subway, but several years ago I went to a subway that was inside of a connivence store, anyways, the clerk of the store was infront of me inline and ordered a 12" mayonnaise sandwich. I thought it was a joke at first, but the subway folks put about 1.5" of mayo on the bread and wrapped it up and gave it the clerk.
Anyways, I order my sandwich still thinking this has to be a joke. On my way out of the store I see the clerk behind the counter about a quarter the way through the mayo sandwich.
Dude asked for more pepper. And more pepper. Eventually he said just screw the cap off and douse it in pepper

I had someone order a turkey melt with no cheese.
I had a person order a veggie delight with chicken.
I had a person order a steak and bacon and they didn't want to bacon or sub toasted....
What in the fuck.
Also why does everyone get the orange cheddar with Tuna? Like everyone. Most subs = white cheddar, but tuna subs are 100% without fail orange cheddar.
I've never worked at Subway or any other sandwich shop but one time when I went to Subway to get a sandwich, there was an older (probably in his 60s) gentleman in front of me, ordered 3 or 4 sandwiches. At least one of the sandwiches was for someone else, whom he was on the phone with. The person on the phone was telling him what kind of sandwich they wanted, and the man wanted to just give his phone to the girl making the sandwich but she was like "no I'm not gonna take your phone, you're just gonna have to tell me what to put on it." but anyways, when the girl was making his sandwich, he told her he wanted vinegar oil or some shit on there, well after she applied an average amount, he told her he wanted more. She put on a bit more. He kept saying more, more, more, more; this sandwich was soaked with vinegar oil, it was fucking gross.

I don't know why but they removed the meatball marinara here in europe, it was my favourite sub. Haven't went to subway that much since, I asked the employees about it and they said it just wasn't very popular... (sad panda). Does that topping still exist in the US?
Not me, but one of my friends owns two subway franchises with his dad. It's downtown in our city where there's a large number of homeless people.
He famously told us about the footlong meatball sub that a homeless guy ordered with "all the sauces." I can't imagine how soggy and disgusting it must have been, but it definitely gets full marks for caloric content.
Oh, and buddy watched him sit down and eat the whole thing. Apparently it was quite a spectacle.
A friend of mine posted a photo on Facebook of this woman in front of her who ordered a foot long and it was nothing but a HUGE pile of mayonnaise. That was it. Mayo and bread.

Ugh, when they had "customer appreciation month" which meant discounts on meatball subs, this one couple ordered it and requested 4 times the amount of mustard and mayo we'd typically use on a sandwich. They also asked for "juh-LAH-peh-noes".
Also, not a weird sandwich order buuuut one other person asked for a "5 foot long". Thought she meant 5 separate foot long sandwiches, then she holds her hands about 1 foot apart, and looks at me with a serious stare "No, your 5 foot long sandwich!"
Customer came in once and ordered a tuna sub on six inch flatbread. He asked for not one, not two, but six times the amount of cheese we put on a six inch and finalized his order by not getting it toasted and adding ketchup and sub sauce onto his "creation".

Meatball sub with lettuce.
Southwest sauce and honey mustard.
There was a girl who would come in every Tuesday and a order a foot long Spicy Italian with double meat and double cheese. She would get it toasted and it was so gross and greasy. This girl probably weighed 90 pounds.

I used to order double meatball footlongs. One day my buddy grabbed the subs and came back to the office qith a triple meatball sub. How they managed to get 24 meatballs on that thing is beyond me
Hey everyone, made my account just to contribute to this so hope it wasn't time wasted lmao.
I used to work in a subway in a train station in Northern England which mean't there were tourists, but none of them ate subways like Japs. (Forgive me for shortening the name)
It was a Sunday morning about 9 AM and a family of Jap tourists come in. And everyone of them had the same sandwich. Footlong brown bread (can't remember proper name), tuna, extra cheese, toasted, all salad, extra Jalapenos, southwest, hot chilli and mayo. I can't imagine what it tasted like but they loved it.
The idea of 'get as much of everything all in one creation' seemed to be popular among the Jap tourists and hats off to them. They can't half shove it down.
It's a 3 hour ride to London and the train basically drives itself....

Well, I'm not the Employee but the customer, but I've got one.
I once had a sandwich artist tell me that she would make my sandwich any way I wanted, and she really emphasised the any, so I told her that I wanted a Philly cheesesteak sub, but I wanted the debatably traditional cheesewiz for cheese. There was a taco bell in the same food court, and she went over to the taco bell and got a couple of containers of their nacho cheese for my sandwich, (which is really what I was asking.) Needless to say she got a tip.

the only problem i have with that is the mayo. otherwise i usually get the same thing minus mustard, but that is a good idea.
Last time I tried the roast beef it was reminiscent of shoe leather... even worse, I inhaled some of the roast beef directly into my lungs... Every now and again when I exhale a chunk of flaming roast beef comes up, which I have repeatedly re inhaled to prevent it from scorching the lining of my esophagus.
What's your workout like? That's a MASSIVE amount of calories. Don't get me wrong I wasn't calling you a fat ass or anything, I was just taken back by someone being hungry enough to go through that much food.
honestly it's nothing impressive. From what i've read and heard, alot of people can eat that without any problem, but then again I dont go to subway very often, maybe once every two months or so.
Quite honestly, that sounds like the startings of an eating disoder. That's a hell of a lot of food, and still being hungry after all that isn't normal.
You're on the verge of being over weight, and if you keep eating like that your weight will likely keep going up. 3 to 4 times per week is not a lot to work out,and foot long subs have a lot of calories.
One time I was at subway, and there was a little old lady ordering beside me. She even had an actual coin purse, just so you get the picture.
I was getting an Italian, with hots and oil & vinegar.
If I remember correctly the little old lady ordered a meatball sub, no cheese. But as the sandwich artist moved me along to the vegetable portion of the assembly line, it was as if the old lady forgot what she wanted, and all of a sudden started getting everything I was getting on her meatball sub.
"I'll have that with black olives..."
And then I hear an echo...
black olives
"....and can I also have spinach, peppers, and onions"
spinach, peppers, and onions
"A little tomato, and cucumbers please"
tomatoes and cucumbers
"And then oil and vinegar, and that should do it"
That's where I paused, waiting. Surely she wasn't going to put oil and vinegar on a meatball sub.
"Um, any sauce ma'am?"
oil and vinegar please
I just cringed, paid for my sandwich and imagined her first bite into her meatball sub with spinach, peppers, cukes, onions, black olives, and a nice drizzle of oil and vinegar.
Gross.
I felt sad when I got in my car and thought, "that's somebody's grandma". I wondered if I should have stopped her, intervened on her behalf... but eventually convinced myself that she did something heinous.

I had a girl order a order a sandwich with "all the olives." I was the kind of sandwich artist who didn't give a shit about corporate policy regarding "two ounces of lettuce, 3 pickles, etc." I was the people's sandwich artist. So I laid nearly a container of olives down. Must have been two pounds of olives on that shitty six inch. She loved it.

People like you are great. I asked for "More pickles than you have ever seen on a burger" at Steak and Shake. She brought me a cup of pickles because "no one can handle seeing that many pickles on a burger."

That reminds me of my time at mcdonalds, someone asked for 3x extra pickle, so I made it so there was more pickle than burger. He was the happiest I've ever seen a customer.

Similarly, I've had somebody ask me to "murder that bitch with jalapeños" (worked at papa johns). I murdered that bitch. He was ecstatic

I asked Wendy's to pick some.of those ghost pepper jalapeños into my baconator, they refused. I had to buy the fries (which I was gonna buy already l) and throw that shit ontop the bacon.
I might still be upset about that.

One of the shifts after I'd put in my two weeks, we got a Filet with an Ask Me. Register told me, "the customer said to 'murder that bitch with pickles,' go crazy." I have fairly big hands, and I reached into the pickle container and grabbed as many as I could hold, and dropped them onto the filet. The box wouldn't close all the way, and the customer came up later and said we're the first location that's gotten him enough pickles... I think the pickles alone had enough salt to sterilize a manatee.

Used to work at McDonald's, and one of my coworkers told a story. Some guy had asked for Extra mustard, and got it, but he came back asking for it to be remade because there wasn't enough mustard. Apparently they put on a shit ton of mustard, which I imagine tastes like shit after a certain point.

Hate the employees if that shit happens, if they're an older adult it's probably the owner being a prick because they hate paying for olives, and they can keep a set of eyes on the cashier. Still it's a company policy you can ask for as much as you want, if they cut you short just walk out and try another store the next time you feel like giving them a try.

I bet it's especially annoying when they drown your sandwich in the dressing you ask for, but put on very little toppings. The sandwich ends up being like 3-1 bread to toppings, but 5-1 dressing to bread

It's because the owners are stingy. I used to work at Subway and would give generous amounts whenever the manager/owners weren't around. However, when they were there or an inspector was around, I would have to comply with the whole "3 olives per 6 inch" bs or I'd risk getting my hours cut. Also, inspectors deduct points from their evaluation of the store when they see employees not follow the proper quantities.

When I was trained they actually told us to ignore corporate policy if a customer asks for more. We're supposed to follow the portions as closely as possible, but if a customer wants all the olives, then we're supposed to give them all the olives. Which is fine until they pack every olive we have into a six inch and I can't close the damn sandwich without getting sweet onion sauce all over the floor. :/

Dude! You're awesome. I worked at Friendly's and I loved it. I was a waitress but would frequently make desserts. I was also an artist.
Peanut butter cup sundaes. They are vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, peanut butter sauce and ONE peanut butter cup. As a garnish on the side.
One. Singular. On a freaking PEANUTBUTTER CUP SUNDAE.
I would smash one, sprinkle half in the bottom. Then ice cream, a little of each sauce, other half of cup, ice cream, sauces, more pnb cup, then the last scoop of ice cream, another 1/2 pnb cup, sauces and whip cream. Then I'd put the whole garnish cup on the side, cherry it then sprinkle a bit of pnb cup on the top.
It was fucking beautiful.

I used to work at a taco bell and this one guy wanted extra onions on his burrito. Now mind you, he was being a dick so extra onions he got! Two fistfuls of chopped onions. More onions than anything else on that burrito, and they aren't the freshly chopped kind. They come out of a bag and they're typically pretty strong. I have no idea if it was enough onions for the guy, but we didn't receive any complaints. Success!

I learned there is a difference between corporate manates and customer requests. Customer requests trump whatever corporate wants to set as the rule. 4 tomatoes, 6 pickles, 6 black olives. I'll do a corporate sub unless the person makes special requests. Now I fucking hate so called Sandwich artists who will throw on two or three extra pickles and olives when I ask for more.

Every single time, I would look them dead in the eyes and ask, "Are you sure?". If they said yes, I would do this head tilt thing, and say Okay.
Most the time they thought I was kidding. I wasnt. What they got was bread, cinnamon, and half inch deep pools of icing. Just drenched. Better eat it with a spoon cause it's soup now.
My coworkers would watch this exchange, and try to warn the customers. They wouldn't listen. They never did.

When i was 17 i worked at subway and we had a guy at the hollywood video next door that would get once scoop lobster salad, one scoop tuna, two slices of roast beef and extra bacon. Extra mayo, american cheese, hot peppers, salt. I'll never forget it. He called it mikes surf and turf. mike was the real sandwich artist

"Lobster" salad. Lobster flavored imitation crab which is actually unnamed white fish.
Or, 1 part lobster per 100 parts unnamed white fish.

Could have been real lobster just not maine. Langostino's are used a lot in bulk lobster. They are just a little bit bigger than realy large shrimp, and about the same cost per pound as small shrimp.

I'm in China right now, and literally every pizza joint here puts this insane amount of vegetables and fruit on the pizza, to a point where it's almost unrecognizable. All I want is a cheese pizza (because finding actual cheese here is like finding a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow surrounded by unicorns). Thank the gods for Dominoes. Dominoes delivers, has online delivery in English, and they sell a simple cheese pizza. I hate dominoes in the US (where I'm from), but Chinese Dominoes is my savior when I do not want Chinese food.
tl;dr Pizza may suck in China, but Dominoes is eternal.

I'm in India right now, and honestly, Dominoes here is absolutely balls as well. However, it's the only place that I've found that serves food involving legit cheese other than paneer/cottage cheese, so I have eaten a ton more terrible pizza than is often recommended. It's worth it for that goddamn curdled dairy.

Yes and it's still really expensive. I haven't looked too much yet, but my friend (from Germany), went and found what she thought was a cheese from Germany. It kinda was, but not really. Like, if you're an American, do you know the fucking Kraft American Singles?? These are basically every relatively cheap cheese you can find in China. Real, off the block cheese, is basically really small and really expensive (according to German friend who actually went to one of these markets)

I have no clue. Part of me thinks it the food culture here. Put a lot of different foods together to balance it out and make it "delicious."
My pizza I eat at a Western/ Chinese place is exactly like this. It's some little small business restaurant called Sarah's. The pizza may suck, but it is like 1/2 the price of Dominoes.

I find that most Indians think this way at the Mexican restaurant I frequent.
They will order a veggie burrito (the cheapest, biggest item on the menu) then try to get double this and double that. Extra sauce on the side, extra rice etc then complain if they get charged for anything extra.
It's really sad to watch, these are people with well paying jobs trying to complain about getting charged $.50 for double rice on a $4 burrito.
[deleted] · 45 points · Posted at 05:34:08 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
Just want to point out that the majority of Indians are vegetarians, so it's likely they're ordering the veggie burrito because it's veggie.

Approximately 48 people disagree with you that it wasn't needed, and part of the claim that they wanted extra was that they were ordering the veggi burrito because it's the biggest burrito.

Turkey + Bacon + An entire bottle of Southwest.
The Southwest sauce tastes awesome, but pouring an entire bottle of it onto the sandwich was disheartening and demoralizing.
Also I saw this guy on my way to work ask for 25 (specifically that number) of sugars in his iced coffee. Then the sandwich thing happened, and he got pissy when my manager said he'd have to be charged extra for the excessive sauce. Then he trespassed on construction across the street and we watched him get arrested.

The high guys who came in to the store I worked at (two dudes that came in fairly regularly for a semester) would order what we dubbed the Gangbang Supreme (inspired by the name of the McGangband). It involved:
Chicken Bacon Ranch with Double Meat = 4 trays of chicken and 8 slices of bacon (double bacon comes with the double meat)
3x Footlong orders of extra bacon = 20 Slices of bacon total
3x Footlong orders of extra cheese = 16 "Slices" of cheese.
Lettuce
Tomato
Bananna Peppers
Ranch
Chipotle
Make it a meal (chips and a large drink) And finish it off with 6 cookies.
These guys were maybe 6' and 160lbs. There were thin and somehow put it all away, ever single time.

I was really fucking high once and decided to get a subway, I had never smoked a blunt before (and barely smoked much else to be fair) but I smoked one with my big stoner buddy. I was fully not safe to be in public.
Holy shit did I fuck it up, it was peak lunchtime, I got my order straight in my head but first I had to check my subcard to see if I had enough points for a footlong or a six inch because I had no money "Can you check the card for to see how much sandwich I have on this thing" luckily the guy knew.
Ok footlong, I think, fuck, I don't know, lets gamble this shit! I can't pay for it if I don't have enough points, oh fuck, what the fuck everyone is looking at me. OH FUCK! THE ORDER! GUYS ASKING ME FOR MY ORDER!
"Can I get a meatball marijuana on honey oat man"
Fuck everyone knows I'm high, fuck fuck fuck, I should run the fuck out right now.
(I zone back) Guys asking me if I want it toasted? Just say yes.
"Yes"
Ok fuck we're on to salad, fuck, just get all the salad, you're too high to fuck around choosing.
(I managed to fumble through it and pay)
I then go sit on one of the stools facing the wall with the little counter and zone out, until my buddy taps me on the shoulder and asks me if I'm ok because I've been staring at the wallpaper for like 10 minutes. Finally chow down on my sandwich like a hungry desert islander, so high I bite my own fucking finger once or twice...
I really should not have been in public, I was absurdly high, but I was also 16 and still living with my folks so I couldn't go home.

I was once trying to order a footlong meatball sandwich. I got up to the counter and accidentally said, "I want a football," and then couldn't stop laughing because it cracked me up for some reason. I had to leave and come back later when I'd calmed down.

I work at Giordano's (Deep Dish Specialty Pizza place based in Chicago, has a few locations outside of Illinois) and when you order a pizza to go, we are trained to ask if you would like any crushed red pepper or Parmesan with the pizza. Guy comes up to the counter, we cash him out, and ask if he would like any, and he responds with "No thank you, but I will have some marijuana with it". The other girl at the counter and I look at eachother, look back at him, and go "Excuse me?" and he goes "Oh shit! Haha sorry, I meant oregano!" ...... We had to go into the kitchen and laugh it out really quick before getting his oregano to him lmfao.

Double meat tuna on white bread with double avocado, two of them.

"No, I buy enough for four lunches. I just eat a six inch a day."

I don't know if you have a Lenny's Sub Shop near you, but when I go, I always get two large Philly Cheesesteak with red pepper sauce. That's two 15" subs. I eat them both back-to-back. I'm disgusting, I know, but if you've ever had Lenny's Philly, you'll understand.

I don't get mine toasted, actually. And not putting the avocado on the bread is a huge pain in the ass and will make subway workers hate you, apparently. What really fucks up the bread is the tomatoes, anyway. But I actually don't really care. It still tastes good. Soggy bread doesn't bother me.

Once I asked a worker if he could do that or if he would hate me with every fiber of his being. I learned from him that they don't like that. Also apparently not asking for avocado before your other veggies is just awful.
ShoesWisley · 4 points · Posted at 02:05:44 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
As an employee, it's mainly because the avacado just sticks to everything it touches and all we usually have on hand to put it on is an ice-cream scoop. Trying to spread it evenly onto a pile of loose vegetables can be frustrating.
Putting the avacado on first just makes the whole process easier, and saves us the effort of having to clean the scoop in between sandwiches.
throwrocsatmetal · 10 points · Posted at 04:12:17 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
When your avocado is scooped out of a container with an iced cream scoop is about the time you should evaluate how hard it is to make your own sandwich.

Then she asked for marinara sauce on top of this followed by cold bacon, ranch, and precisely two tomatoes cut in half. Strangest thing ever.

Not a worker, but I watched the guy in front of me pull out a jar of peanut butter and jelly. He then asked the guy behind the counter to spread the peanut butter and jelly on his choice of italian bread. Then he wanted a meatball marinara on that, with tomatoes and jalapenos.
I was going to go home, but when he sat down so I decided to watch him eat that abomination. It was kind of difficult to watch him and retain my appetite.

A lot of people make crock pot meatballs in a sauce of BBQ or spaghetti sauce mixed with grape jelly. It seems like every time there was a potluck at almost every place I worked at one of the guys goes around with a huge smile "didya like the the meatballs?! They had a secret ingredient .... GRAPE JELLY!!"
The peanut butter... That's just... Wrong. Maybe, maybe it would be OK on the Asian sandwich, kinda like pad Thai... Or maybe a bacon sandwhich... But meatballs with Italian sauce. Bleck.

I worked at a sub shop similar to Subway. The weirdest order was a repeat customer. She would ask for about 6 or 7 strips of bacon on a large sub, with the (pre-cooked) bacon held in the deep frier for 2 minutes. Then all the bacon thrown back on the grill, with layer after layer of provolone melted onto the bacon. No toppings, just mayo. This mayo-fried-bacon-cheese on bread was a sticky, greasy mess resembling nothing on our menu. We charged her for a small veggie sub.

The store manager's reasoning was to charge her for the cheapest sub we sell, since it was just 6 slices of bacon in a pile of cheese. I personally think she was undercharged, and the manager was being really nice.

My coworker at Tim Hortons would always make a sandwich that was a couple slices of Ham, a fistful (approx. 10-15) slices of bacon (It's microwave bacon, so paper thin, but still...) and then about 3/4 cup of mayonnaise. Like, the sandwich was equal parts mayonnaise as it was meat.
That was his sandwich, he ate it everyday. It was violent. I wanted to try it once but I couldn't stomach that much mayo, I like mayo, but as a condiment not an entrée.

Building off this, if you mix white rice with mayonnaise and add salt and pepper, you'll get one of the best rice dishes that goes with anything. The mayo should be just enough that it glistens off the rice, it's a hard ratio to manage but I found it's about 5 cups dry rice, 1 cup mayonaise. Never measured it out with cooked rice.

We call it pink sauce here. Why, what do you use mayo for, if not for french fries dipping???
blurio · 1 points · Posted at 11:09:03 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
You all should come to germany. Fries with half ketchup-half mayo is standard here. "Pommes Rot-Weiss" or "Pommes Schranke" which literally means "Fries Red-White" or "Fries Barrier". Cause railway barriers are striped red and white here.

Mayo and Peanut sauce with raw onions is a relatively normal way ordering fries in the Netherlands. Mayo is meant to be eaten with fries.

Being Dutch means that I think french fries with mayo is damn delicious. In the Dutch food store near my house, and in most stores in Holland, they sell squeeze bottles of "fritesaus", which (as I hope you can tell) literally just means "fry sauce"... It's a squeeze bottle of "kind of mayo", but better.
Nokcihc · 1 points · Posted at 15:31:42 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
You can mix just about any sauce with mayo and it turns out great. Even just mixing some herbs in makes it 10 times better.

Heh. I used to go down to my dad's workplace and hang out every Thursday, I was homeschooled and Thursday was the day my Mom liked to go shopping and I HATED shopping with her.
I always got lunch that day from a Mr. Sub that was next door. I was basically in there so much I got to know the employees on a first name basis, and all I literally had to do was walk into the store and wait. They knew exactly what my order was (BLT for Dad, and a toasted all meat, bacon and tomato sub for me) so I could go in and sit down.
I remember one time, I walked in and there was a bit of a line, so I stood off to the side and waited... After everyone cleared out and I was standing at the counter, a guy sitting at a table nearby said (Paraphrased, I can't remember exactly) "Not that it's any of my business, but aren't you going to order anything?", JUST as one of the servers handed me my order. The look on his face was priceless.

I'm not saying this story is true, but not everyone who works at subway is necessarily making a shitty wage. I worked at subway all through university here in Australia and never made less than $15 an hour and my wage went up a few times correlating with age and experience. Along with my second fast food job (cashier at a chicken place), I was able to pay rent and live pretty damn comfortably.

I never really found any strange combinations. Pretty much any meat/veggie/cheese combo can taste okay. The orders I found strange were moreso when someone asked for one item completely out of moderation. Like seven handfuls of banana peppers or half a bag of mayonnaise on their sub. Also, one time someone asked for 10 servings of chicken teriyaki alone, nothing else. Not even bread.

Not really weird, but definitely the saddest sandwich I made. There was an older woman (75+) who would come in about once per week to get a meatball sub. She wanted the meatballs separate in a salad bowl and then would take the bread home to her dog because she couldn't bite into the bread. She would always eat in the restaurant before she left and she had to take such small bites that it would take her about 15 minutes to eat a couple of tiny meatballs.

Ever since then every company comes up with something that isn't "employee" even though we all know it's bullshit.

I had a guy come in once who wanted to sandwiches with double of every type of meat on them.. It was night and we didn't care so we did it.. When it came time to wrap the sandwich up I just took another foot of bread and cut it open and placed it on top.
We charge him for two double meat footlongs.. He came in and tried it again when my manager was around and she charged him for every meat double I believe it came up to $34.
I also had a woman come in once when toasting was new and she was complaining that it didn't toast for enough time.. Really bitchy about it so I put her foot long on for 3x the time it should have been in.. That bread was black but she didn't bitch since she was so adamant I wasn't doing enough time anyway.

I had a lady come in about every other night who ordered a cold cut combo (now trio) and she would have me remove the ham and salami, then cover ever exposed bit of cheese and bologna with mayo.
She complained to me one night that one of the employees working on my off night gave her a hard time when she asked for the extra mayo. When I asked him about it, he said he started to get nauseous over all the mayo and basically had to ask the cashier to take over before he lost his lunch.

Not Subway, but I worked at a sandwich shop called Little King, and we had a guy that came in occasionally and he would order a hot Mortadella and ketchup sandwich. After making it and smelling it, we eventually made new employees eat one as a rite of passage to work there.

Not subway but I was a pantry cook in a nice seafood and sushi restaurant. There was a guy that would come in a few times a year, sit at the bar, and order a sandwich with 3 oz of beluga caviar on lightly toasted white bread. And a side of fries. I think he just came into town on business. But at the time I think that was about a $300 sandwich.

Oven to 150, put a temp probe in it that goes off when it hits 124 (anything a few degrees shy of 127, it's up to you), and give yourself like 2 hours. Then sear it at 500+ as soon as that's done.

The last time I saw him his burger consisted of 6 6oz patties, 10 pieces of cheddar cheese, 5 grilled pineapple rings, about a cup of teriyaki plus the lettuce tomato mayo all on a bun. The burger was literally a foot tall standing up.....finished every bite of it.

Chef here. Two 9 oz burgers isn't really that big of a deal. The weight of meat on a menu refers to the uncooked weight. Once you grill or fry the meat, it shrinks due to fat melting and water evaporating etc, so you really just end up with a 6-7 oz burger patty.

When was this? The math doesn't add up. Being that this is a sandwich that I get, I don't ever remember double meat on a 6 inch costing more than a foot long. 6 inch cold cut is 3.50, double meat 1.25. Total 4.75 12 inch is 5.50

This was ~4 years ago? To be fair I don't remember looking at a receipt. But I just remember that whatever he got with double meat (maybe it wasn't the cold cut) it ended up costing more than the standard footlong. This was right around when their $5 Footlong promo thing started and not all footlong sandwiches were yet $5-ish.
But from these other responses it appears I must be smoking crack for thinking it was an odd thing to do.

Quote a few years back, a co-worker would order a foot long sandwich on 6 inches of bread. It was cheaper than double meat/cheese on a 6", and had a better ratio than a foot long (or so he said). So at some point, in some markets, it was a thing.

There is a difference between "being stingy" and "not giving me extra for free", and I think it has more to do with "boss", and less to do with "minority".
[deleted] · 2 points · Posted at 20:55:31 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
Yeah "minority" doesn't factor into it I don't think. At my local subway, the manager is from the Philippines, and he barely speaks any english. However, if I ask for extra anything, he gets this crazy grin and just loads up the sandwich with whatever you wanted more of. I asked for some extra olives last time, and he gave me a big mitt full of olives.

Wow a thread I'm actually qualified to post in.
I've worked at Subway for only a couple of months, and yet I've had some outrageous requests.
One girl wanted her ham and turkey slices sliced in quarters. Weird, but doable. Until she started telling me the order they were to be placed and arranged on the sandwich. And not just ham/turkey/ham/etc, I'm talking full on ham/turkey/ham/ham/turkey/ham/turkey/etc with the predictability of pi. We're talking 32 pieces of sliced meat, each the size of an oreo. I was in complete disbelief.
Of course you have the semi-oddball who will tell you exactly how much of something they want ("four spinach leaves" or "3 tomatoes") but I will never understand the thinking of the guy who only wants one olive, and wants it hidden in his turkey italiano. He literally turned around and waited till it was out of sight. I didn't know what to do so I just stuck it under one of his pepperoni slices.
Then you have the people with just odd combinations, like steak and tuna with marinara sauce, or, my favorite, chicken teriyaki with buffalo chicken, bacon, honey mustard, ranch, lite mayo, and a whole shaker full of oregano. All on Flatbread. Thing looked like a lab experiment gone wrong.
Then the person who wanted their Doritos crunched up and mixed with their meatball, then double toasted. Another person did a similar thing with cookies, except it was on a personal pizza instead of a sandwhich. I'm dead serious when I say they asked for all 3 of their macadamia cookies to be placed on their pizza, covered with cheese, and baked.
People are weird as hell. Subway has at least taught me that.

One of my regulars asked for a meatball salad once. Technically, anything that can be put on a sandwich can be made into a salad, so I was forced to comply. Not the most grotesque thing I ever made for a customer, but certainly one of the most unsettling.

I didn't work at Subway, but at another (better) sandwich place that delivers so fast it might just, in fact, freak you out.
For people who wanted to watch their carbs, you could get a wrap of sorts, where you'd have a couple of big leaves of lettuce instead of bread. We had one customer who would order a double tuna, double mayo, and double avocado "sandwich", but as a wrap. I don't know how he ate it or why, but at least he tipped well!

Worked at a Subway competitor over a decade ago.
One woman would always come in once or twice a week and just buy a few loaves of bread at a time and nothing else. She told us she liked to make her own sandwiches at home. Whatever, not that weird, but it was annoying because it would some times deplete us of our the bread we had pulled out of the freezer we had for the day. There was pretty tight inventory control so we only pulled so many loaves a day, and she was buying the equivalent of 6-10 sandwiches without anything else.
Another time a mid-30s woman came in, pretty attractive. She ordered a roast beef sandwich with, I quote, "extra mayonnaise. I love it creamy" while winking at me. The thing is I really hate mayonnaise so I was both repulsed and turned on. One of my first confused boners ever tbh.

My time to shine! This will probably just get burried like most of my other posts though, late to the party like always. ANYWAYS I haven't worked at Subway in years but my absolute favorite was this man who came in one night and asked for a Feast (like others have said, its mostly discontinued but unlike others have said, its not all the meats it's basically just a double Club sandwich.) He wanted two of them. I said "ok, what else do you want on it?" He asked if he could get more meat. I told him he could get as much as he was willing to pay for. So he asked for everything. ALL OF IT. He got a FULL PORTION of EVERY SANDWICH on ONE bread (well actually two, I laid it down flat and put another whole loaf on top. Twice. I'm talking tuna on top of meatball on top of chicken and philly steak and cold cut and ect. Even the repeat ones, like chicken-bacon -ranch and buffalo chicken or steak and the bigger steak I can't remember the name. We had two microwaves and two toasters and I had them both working to make this dude's subs. It took almost 40 minutes just to construct these monstrosities. Now, two things. One, its cheaper to get "double meat" than it is to get another sandwhich so maybe this dude is doing that and has his own bread at home. Nope. This shit was all mushed together like some EpicMealTime shit. 2 Maybe he was blazed and a jackass kid? Nope. 500 pound 60 year old black guy with a cane who said they were for his wife, she eats ONE A DAY and that he came to us since other Subways stopped making them for him. It took our manager almost half an hour to figure out how to charge him for it since extra portions of different meats cost different prices and it trying to put it in the regular way maxed out the system. To top it all off, I shit you not, he wanted every veggie. Then he asked for extra portions of those veggies. It got insane very fast. He ended up paying some 75 dollars for technically 2 sammiches.
BONUS ROUND: Found a picture of it. It took 4 paper sheets to completely wrap. http://imgur.com/tFm7j99

Not a subway worker, but I've eaten there in India many times when I was there for work. (Don't judge me. This was lunch and I ate good Indian food for dinner)
Indian people love their sauces. So one day I'm behind a gal who wants: mayo, teriyaki, bbq, honey mustard, mint chutney, sweet onion. At that point I had to turn around, not look at her order, and try my best not to listen to the other things going onto it.
Edit: Said this happened once, but I saw this several times.

Different counties have different sauces. When I lived in Australia I discovered the magic of sweet chili sauce on a sandwich. Have never seen that in an American subway.
Wish I could remember if I'd seen anything else weird. I don't recall if they had something different in Scotland, and the subway in Afghanistan was just a sad, sad affair that shouldn't be mentioned.

Meatball marinara with precisely 37 olives.
No more.
No less.
He also wanted the cheese to be spread out onto the very ends of the sub. I thought it was weird so I asked him and he said it was like an appetizer and a dessert for his lunch. I figured I wasn't getting paid enough to argue so put all his olives on and went on my break.
Not too long ago, I was talking to my manager about the guy. He told me that this guy had actually sat there, taking each individual olive out and counting them on a little scorecard. The guy had come up to my manager and apparently, he said with the sternest look on his face "I counted 36 olives here. I want a refund". Of course, I didn't hear any of this since I was on my break. My manager then goes to the till and asks him for the receipt and how much the sub cost. So this customer from hell hands over the receipt, on which is written $3.50. Everyone in the Subway then realized that he wasn't a customer at all; he was 500 ft. tall and from the paleolithic era.
Needless to say, he didn't come back.

This is a ridiculously stupid joke that has been circulating for a while now. It always involves some bizarre, intriguing lead up only to be let down by a lochness monster line. Tree Fiddy is the $3.50 that OP mentions, which is also another part of the joke. Google "tree fiddy loch ness" for more information.
At any rate, I hadn't seen this for a while and was enjoying it. But this idiotic, sub-par attempt at a 'rick roll' has returned and is just... tasteless. Reddit beat this fucking thing to death ages ago but some smarmy moron always has to show up and hurr durr his way through a thread to prove exactly how unoriginal he is.

All of them are essentially long stories that end in a specific, unsatisfying ending. So Loch Ness Monster is a classic but you could end it with other ones that each have their own associated phrases. It's one of those things that's only really funny the more you see it and the more irritating it is, in an unexpected way.

Either the guy who would get a double-meat, double-cheese cold-cut which he then proceeded to drown in a bottle of chipotle sauce, or the kid who got a double-meat salami with triple bacon and extra cheese.
I try not to judge customers, but it boggled my mind that a mother would let her kid order that.
And here's to you Chipotle Guy, wherever you are.

Theres a couple. First I had a lady that looked like New York from Flava of Love. she wanted me to cut the bread all the way through as opposed to the weird side cut we're supposed to do. then wanted the bottom slice covered in cheese, then just that toasted. Then lettuce covering the whole thing, then dressing, meat, and the rest of the veggies in that order. Replace the top and toast again. As far as sandwich construction goes I understand it but I had to basically go from one end of the line to the other and back again which is a bitch when it's busy.
The second was another mall employe. She was about 5 foot nothing and weighed 90 pounds in the rain. She always got a six inch sub, two slices of ham (normal is four) no cheese or veg, but she wanted what seemed like half the bottle of mayo. I learned her coffee order from the not starbucks across the way and it was a small black with a little milk and 10 sugars. Wasn't surprised when I found that out.

Being a sandwich artist was my part time job in uni back in the day. The guy who worked at the video store next to me came in and wanted a sub for when he planned to get high after work. He was a thin guy, probably in his late teens.
Anyway, foot long Cold Cut Trio with double meatballs/marinara sauce on top with Chicken Teriyaki on top of that and mayo on top of that.
I think I just told him to give me $10 and didn't bother ringing it in.
I didn't see him again after that so I just assume I killed him.

Guy came in and his friends made him a bet to see if he could eat a footlong with every single meat. This thing weighed about 1.5Kg and cost him $50 (Australian). Yes I was able to wrap it up...
PittsburghDan · 1 points · Posted at 22:03:37 on November 16, 2015 · (Permalink)
we did that in the U.S..
My friend worked at Subway, and provided the monstrosity to three of my friends. This was during the time that Subway was running the angus beef burger promotion, so it actually had all the standard meats & cheeses + angus, egg patties, & marinara sauce.
Only 1 of my friends was brave enough to do the footlong. They all agreed, the marinara sauce is an absolutely essential ingredient

The sandwich itself wasn't weird, but the context was. Had a girl come in at about 10 in the morning in her PJ's. She comes to the counter and asks what sub can have the most meat (hur hur). I inform her that she could get, I dunno, double meat steak with bacon. So that's what she orders, no cheese, no salad, no sauce. As I'm ringing up this meathemoth, I ask her why she wanted such a meaty sub. She tells me that she's been vegetarian for the past ten (I think) years and woke up that morning wanting to eat meat.

This lady that would get lunch at the same time as me would ask for the fluffy part of the bread to be scooped out, then the the crust filled with 3x mayo, 3x olives, 3x pickles, 1x ranch then the bottom crust 2x ham 2x cheese. Pretty much every day.
Also, I hope some people from jersey mike's read this thread and stop giving me that fucking look when I ask for light lettuce on my italian. I want a fucking sandwich with coldcuts and toppings not a fucking pound of shredded lettuce topped with meat and bread and I don't want it with a badittude.

I went to Subway with my boss once on a business trip. His instructions were, and I quote, "An uncomfortable amount of tomatoes. No. More." The poor girl making the sandwich was new and basically gave him the entire container.

It's the best sandwich ever. I go in once a week to get it the one guy just knows at this point and makes it as soon as I walk in.

I had a customer order a foot long buffalo chicken sandwich with pepper jack cheese. I toasted it for him and then he proceeded to ask me for a "disgusting amount of onions and jalapeños". He then asked for mustard and chipotle southwest sauce.
After it was all said and done I asked him why his tastes were so oddly specific. He said that he grew up in a large family, and that if he would order a normal tasting sandwich his other siblings would steal it from him and eat it when he wasn't paying attention. So after a while he learned to eat disgusting foods so no one would take them anymore.

Never had a 'weird' sandwich as far as what was in it, but one woman who came in every monday INSISTED that the only way we could make her sandwich was to cut the hinge of the bread before we started putting stuff on it, like a hoagie. She'd freak out if we cut it after, so we'd have to balance everything on one side of the sub. It was irritating.

One guy called his sandwich surf and turf...which was just Steak and seafood sensation(imitation crab mixed with 2 cups of mayo).
Also a suprisingly large amount of people get sweet onion chicken teriyaki with whole eggs plus all the veggies and usually ranch and mayo and bbq sauce.
Or veggie patties with egg and all the sauces and extra sriracha and buffalo.

No bread whatsoever. This wasn't an "unwich" with lettuce leaves as the "bread," this was literally meat and pickles on the paper wrapper, slathered with mustard. The woman ordered all of this and had me redo it once. Even had me cut it in half, then ate the whole thing with a fork. She would not accept this in a bowl, as a wrap, or as a makeshift salad.
No idea. Almost seemed insulted when my manager double-checked that this is what she actually wanted and that I hadn't botched her order somehow.

I used to work at a togos, and the weird concoction is the roast beef sandwich with the small container of roast beef is soaked in, I always wondered why anyone would go curry style on pure juice.
I've had a homeless man come up to me and order up in the store, but my manager rung him up and he had no money so she said he had to leave and the sandwich was left to sit. I asked for a lunch break and after cleaning out the trash I saw him walking and gave him his sub outside

I worked at Subway from 2007 to 2008, and my coworkers and I came up with a few sandwiches for our "secret menu" (like anyone in the food industry does when they're bored, really). One, called the DHS, sounds horrifically disgusting, but it is seriously one of the tastiest sandwiches I've ever eaten, and everyone we've convinced to try it was surprised at how good it was.
• Italian herbs & cheese
• tuna
• onion, green pepper, pickle, banana pepper, jalapeno (diced)
• bacon & chicken teriyaki (microwaved)
• shredded cheese
• small amount of lettuce or spinach
• small amount of ranch, honey mustard & chipotle
Edit: there's also this monstrosity. I'm not the one who made it, though.

Had a guy in the other week who asked for "plenty of jalapenos."
I of course obliged and put what I deemed "plenty" on there. He asked me to keep going. So I did. He asked again, and again, and again. Eventually there was a pile of them bigger than people usually get when they ask for extra lettuce. I had actually had to warn him I was going to have to charge him extra because he had got nearly half a container on this one meatball sub.
Eventually the salad (literally just the jalapenos) was complete, and we moved onto sauce. Seeing that this gent obviously preferred the spicy things in life, I recommended the hot chilli sauce. His response "Oooo no thanks. I had that before. Far too spicy. Just smother it in mayo to cool it down a little please.".........
Still, it kept my night shift interesting for a while!

LPT: if you're getting a meatball sub, ask for a u-gouge or u-cut on your bread. We cut the bread into a little boat shape, that way your meaty goodness doesn't fall out as easily.
I haven't made that many weird sandwiches but one guy asked for "a lot of vinegar", so I asked him to tell me 'when'. I think he zoned out or something because he was silent for a good 6 swipes of vinegar before he panicked and went "not that much!!!!!" Then we both kind of looked at each other in stunned silence. I offered to make him a new one but he declined and, in a very defeated whisper, said "it's too late..."

They wouldn't even try to order a sandwich, they would just say they want bread and all of the mayo that I had there today.

A mom would come in with her daughter and order a footlong on white with just mayo and a TON of olives.
Also had a neck beard order a double meat Feast (all the deli meats on one sub) with all the dressings. He boasted about how he could eat it in less than 5 mins. He sat with his friends in the dining room and gobbled that sub down so fast. After he walked around like a fucking WWE wrestler winning a belt.

Then this guy that came in pretty regularly and wanted all the onions.
Like he wanted the entire container of onions. If the container was almost empty we would have to get a new one to satisfy his craving for onions.

One lady came in and got a tuna sandwich, then asked from more toppings than one can realistically fit on a 12 inch sub. She then proceeded to demand I put about half a bottle of mayo on it ( in addition to the may already in the tuna) and ask for the sandwhich to be cut in fourths. When some of the mayo inevitably got on the outside of the bread because all of the toppings came out during the slicing, she got very upset and yelled.

When I first started going to subway, I ordered some named sandwich with "everything" on it. What I THOUGHT that meant was that particular sandwich with everything that's supposed to come with it, kind of like how a big mac has pickles. But what it ACTUALLY means is that fucking EVERYTHING went on it. I ended up with a footlong filled with absolutely everything on it. By the time that the poor sandwich "artist" was half way through, I was just too embarrassed to speak up about it. So I went home and threw my disgusting abomination in the garbage.

Not Subway but I managed a deli in a hoighty-toighty grocery store that sold the same shit for a higher price. We would use any item from the store as an ingredient if they so chose. One guy trying to look like he's fancy had me make a pate and crumbled bleu cheese sandwich. The thing cost him almost $20 bucks and we got to watch him choke down a few bites and pretend to save the rest. It smelled like butthole.

It was super weird, but what was weirder was that the girl seemed to be wanting to get a reaction from me (she was the type of middle school girl with green streaks in her hair and wore different colored nail polish on each finger). I knew she just wanted me to call her weird so she could try and embrace it, so my nonchalantness made it a very satisfying order on my part.

I get funny looks from the staff at subway when I ask for BOTH tomato AND cucumber, like i'm the first person to ever think about combining the two.
It didn't bother me the first time since the staff member could have just had 'that' face or the expression was from something else. Its happened twice since then at different subways but they also asked me to confirm, like somehow they had misheard me.
TLDR Food Tip: Mix tomato and cucumber, they work.

Not necessarily weird but still strange. I worked there 8 and a half years ago and every day a guy would come in twice a day and get the same sandwich. Footlong wheat, chicken strip microwaved, all the veggies but with 4 or 5 fistfulls of olives. Never wanted it cut either. I work next to the place now and I still see him go by every day.

At the subway I worked at we had Cold Cut Guy. He and 2 other members of his family were lactose intolerant so his sandwiches were always a PIA. 5 sandwiches, all cold cuts. 2 with cheese and a shit ton of mayo. And then you had to switch gloves and knives and wash your hands and wipe down the area we prep the sandwich on. It took like a half hour.

I didn't work at subway, but I worked at Goodcents. It's exactly like subway but only in the Midwest (to my knowledge). I shit you not, my very first day on the job (after training) a man came in, asked for a penny club. I sliced it, put it on his bread, threw the cheese on there, and asked if he'd like the standard dressing. - "Yeah, but before you do that, do you mind getting a cup of water and dipping your fingers in there and sprinkling some on my sandwich?" - "uhm. Seriously?" - "yeah" - "okay"

My little brother once asked me to make him a triple meat Subway Club footlong, which was 24 pieces of turkey, 24 pieces of ham, and 18 pieces of roast beef. If my managers had even given a single fuck they wouldn't have let me take it home, but they didn't, and so I got the satisfaction of saying "I told you it would be disgusting" when he actually tried to eat it.

Not at a Subway, but worked at a small sandwich shop in a small town. A regular would order a peanut butter and mayo sandwich. He would only order it from me because he knew I wouldn't give him shit about it. He and his buddy would eat lunch and hang out for a few hours almost every weekday and sometimes on weekends.
A manager type who didn't do much but got away with it because she was close friends with the owner, would make American cheese with mayo only on white bread. She was the worst. She wouldn't rinse dishes before dropping them in my brand new dish water.

Foot long Italian sub with cold cut and nothing else on it except for a shit ton of mustard and tomatoes. The guy ate it in the store and it was weird. He'd take the tomatoes out, wipe them in more mustard and then eat them and once they were gone he'd eat it like a normal sandwich.

If you order a Gargantuan in an Unwich(our lettuce wraps)
I fucking hate you, especially when you get extra mayo and extra everything. Ugh, it ruins the structural integrity of the sandwich and you'd be better off if I just threw the meat at your face.
TurboDog999 · 0 points · Posted at 04:25:42 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
Ordering a gargantuan without a bun thinking the lack of bun somehow makes it healthier is like thinking that because you had a diet soda with lunch, it evens out your inhaling a banana split for dessert. Either course of action(if it's for cutting calories/carbs, rather than pure taste preference/inability to handle bread products in case of the sandwich) is moronic.
Malzun · 1 points · Posted at 05:45:33 on November 10, 2015 · (Permalink)
I'm just going to bring up the point of severe diabetics. The amount of carbs in just the Garg alone is pretty much over what they're allowed to have for an entire meal. So, in substituting the bread for an unwich, while it's still not super healthy, it won't require them to shoot themselves with a shitload of insulin just to handle it.

I wasn't an employee but a kid in his early teens in front of me ordered a foot long sandwich with turkey and mayonnaise. But it wasn't just a little squirt of mayo. He kept asking the sandwich artist for more and more. It got to the point that both sides of the sandwich were covered with a THICK layer of mayonnaise. You couldn't see any part of the bread or turkey. The sandwich artist finally said that it was going to cost the kid more than a normal sandwich because it was so much mayo. He finally told the sandwich artist it was enough and when the artist closed the sandwich (with not much pressure at all), mayo squirt out from everywhere. I think I may have thrown up in my mouth a little.
Side note, the kid was with his mom and she didn't seem bothered by this whole ordeal. They were both in very fit shape as well.

A pickle sandwich.
I put a few pickles between two slices of bread and asked, "Anything else?"
"Can I have more?"
I spread a few more pickles on and looked up at her.
"...Can I have more?"
I grab a handful of pickles, still dripping with vinegar, and slop them onto the bread.
"Is that enough?"
"Can I have more?"
I proceeded to empty the pickle bin, handful by handful, onto the bread, which was now soaked in vinegar.
"Do you want more than that?"
"Nope. That's good."
I wrapped the sandwich and she paid for it. No chips. No drink. No cookie. Then she took the sandwich to a table and I watched as she ate the entire thing.

Once I had someone ask me to crumble up a macadamia nut cookie and put it on their sandwich.
On the other hand, if you work there, you know how to give other subways the biggest nightmares.
I used to go into an opposing subway and ask for a double meat meatball on Flatbread with every veggie. After they put it all on I would then ask for guacamole. It is Frightening how impossible that thing is to close. The icing on the cake is I was wearing my subway hat while I ordered. Bastard knew what I was doing.

When I worked at subway in High School a kid came in and you could tell he was pretty high. He couldn't decide if he wanted a meatball sub or a seafood sensation sub, so he decided to get a foot-long double meat with each of the two on the sub and asked for it toasted. It was the most disgusting thing I have ever made.

This sandwich is not weird but nasty in my opinion. A frequent customer orders a footlong meatball marinara on white with double cheese and extra toasted. Then he asks for "a bit of lettuce" since he's trying to eat healthier. Loads of parmesan cheese, one fourth of a bottle of mayonaisse, and lots ranch. It was soggy and squishy and gross.

Used to work at Subway. The only one I can really remember is a regular who would order a footlong (I think it was on flatbread but it may have been white) and get double chicken breasts (four chicken breasts in total) and get jalapenos toasted on it. Nothing else would go on the sub. Just double chicken breasts and jalapenos. God, that thing would hurt my nose when it came out of the oven.

I have given the subway workers a few good orders. Sometimes I get:
all meat, I'm talking a generous portion of every damn meat in your little meat station. And then extra everything you just put on it. Regular portion of cheese. No veggies. Light dressing.
I will put an oatmeal cookie on a sandwich sometimes. It's basically a bread product, and the raisins sweeten the sandwich. Was high the first time I ordered it. Was good.
Most expensive sub I ever ordered (also my fave): I asked for a footlong bacon egg and cheese. I specifically asked for enough bacon to give me a heart attack. I had to tell the sandwich artist 3 times to add more. It cost me $18 for the sub. Best. Fucking. Breakfast sandwich. Ever.

As a former employee, i just wanna say, white trash people really love the fucking cold cut combo. The weirdest sandwich i made was definitely for myself though at the end of my shift: teriyaki chicken, burger patty thing, ham, all cheese types (american, swiss, provolone, and pepperjack), bacon, onion, toastthatbitch, lettuce, tomato, olives, banana peppers, jalapenos, sriracha, southwest, sweetonion, ranch, ring it up as a ham, grab a bag of chips (or 3), and getthefuckout. Delicious sandwich btw. i hated that job. I will never look at tuna the same way...

Does anyone remember how Subway once cut their bread? They would cut a "V" into the sandwich, creating a "top" and trough like "bottom". When transitioning from this method to the new (current method), I would often see the employees struggle and try to cram everything into what looked like a long twelve inch pita sub.
Also, remember when sanitary gloves were not part of standard operation? I remember people handling money, then go straight into the lettuce to top off the next customer. Circa 1998-1999ish. Can't believe this was even allowed?!

I don't know if this is classified as weird, but certainly the strangest sandwich I've ever made. My boyfriend came in ordered this monster: It was a foot long roasted chicken on italian herb and cheese, with marinara sauce, eight pepperoni slices, eight pepperjack slices, light lettuce, onions, 11 jalapenos, 9 banana peppers, two lines of hot sauce, one of southwest sauce, salt, pepper, Parmesan, and oregano.

I listened to a guy order a pretty weird sandwich a month ago. It was a 6 inch Italian herbs and cheese, salami, pepperoni, cheddar cheese, toasted, a grip of pickles (like double or triple what someone usually gets on a sandwich), a little bit of lettuce, ranch dressing, salt and pepper, and parmesan cheese. I've eaten some odd combinations of food stoned before, but this weirded me out to the point that I still remember the exact order a month later.

Weirdest personally was probably a regular who came in about 3 times a week would get just American cheese, the bread covered in olives just a full sheet of them, and then to top it off a heavy dousing of vinegar to the point where the bread was almost soaked.

This was years ago, but someone ordered a spicy italian with double meat and extra, extra mayo. The footlong has 10 salami and 10 pepperoni slices so all together the guy had 40 pieces of meat on the sandwich. The fun part was trying to close the damn thing and cut it with all of the mayo and meat grease mixing together to create a slip n slide

I'm so glad you asked. I worked at a subway for 5 years- all the way through high school and a couple years into college. I had a guy so mad that we were out of provolone cheese ("How can you advertise an Italian sandwhich without Italian cheese?!?") that he chased me into the back of the store and threatened my life- no joke. The new girl I was training called the cops. The guy finally got spooked and just left. The rules changed so that just 2 teenage girls couldn't close the restaurant alone anymore (we were open until 2am).

When I trained my little brother to start working he made a sandwich for a super awkward girl, to begin she was super hard to understand and super quiet. The next thing she does she pulls out her Yu-Gi-Oh cards and brags about her newest card. The end result of a sandwich is white bread, sweet onion sauce, and hot sauce. I had nope'd my way out when she pulled out the yugioh cards so when my brother came to the back he told me about the sandwich she ordered and he charged her full price ($5) for the foot long. I went out into the lobby with a cleaning rag and wiped down a table near by to get a closer look and sure enough she's happily eating a soft loaf of smashed bread with reddish-brown sauce pouring out of the back onto the table. I ran to the back and told my brother in one week he had made the weirdest sandwich me and my subway friends had seen in 4 years. Apparently she's come back a few times and ordered the same thing in the past few years, I hope she wasn't charged the full price for her bread-sauce.
TLDR: bread and sauce.

At our Subway we workers were the weird ones. We'd try to make peanut butter and jelly or coffee or coconut cookies - just whatever we could add to the cookie dough before baking 'em up. Then give them away to our customers because they were usually kind of awful.
The best thing that we did all the time was make pizzas out of the thawed out bread dough. It takes some work, but you can reshape the loaf into a crust, load that bad boy down with every single item on the bar, and bake it in the bread baking oven. We made the whole place smell like pizza and customers would come in all like "what's that???" but it was all for us :)

My wife is slightly weird (albeit nowhere near as weird as some of the other requests), she orders just sliced cheese on plain bread. Nothing else, no condiments or any other fillings. It can't even be grated cheese. It has to be sliced cheese. It can't even be toasted. Just a bloody expensive cheese sandwich.

Tuna, meatball, steak sandwich. Extra cheese and avocado. All veggies. Extra mayo.
By the way if you toast your tuna sandwiches, you are a sick fuck who should be beaten. No that is not a tuna melt you think you just made. Just no.

I don't work there anymore but I can tell you the sandwich I made that I still talk about. A guy came in and ordered a footlong tuna. No big deal right? Then, he wants bacon on it. Okay.. Not common but okay. Then he wants meatballs on it and toasted. We essentially had to charge him for two sandwiches plus 1 footlong of bacon.. I wonder how it tasted.

One time as a customer at Subway I witnessed the customer in front of me, a methy looking lady, order a fairly normal looking sandwich until she reached the end of the line where the worker asks if you want any condiments. She said mayo. Worker adds mayo. She says no, more. He adds another couple of lines.
Then she got legitimately angry. This lady screamed at that poor stoned highschooler to drown her sandwich in mayo so he tentatively held the bottle over it and squeezed while maintaining eye contact with her. After a good 10 seconds he finally said, "tell me when..." and she just curtly replied "I will" without breaking eye contact with her sub.
I shit you not, she didn't say "when" until the dude had to shake the nearly empty bottle to get all the mayo that was coagulated on the sides to stream downwards towards the nozzle. At that point she sort of sighed and said that would do. I COULD NOT see the bread any longer! The guy almost gagged trying to fold and wrap it, with this disgusting thick white mayo just oozing out of every crevice of the paper that he was trying to wrap it in. It oozed out of the second layer too and smeared on the insides of the bag when he slid it in. She paid quickly and left. He had to go in the back and scrub his hands down before serving me.

I'm not a Subway worker, but the sandwich I get every time go there is italian herbs and cheese, ham, american cheese (toasted, duh), pickles, tomatoes, black olives, and ranch. My friends and family have dubbed it the pregnant lady sandwich because it sounds like something a pregnant lady would be craving.

I work in a subway/fried chicken place in a truck stop so I make a lot of horrible shit. I had a guy make me take the lid off of my pepper shaker and pour it on his sammich. I had a guy make me take 3 foot longs worth of steak, green peppers onion and olives, ranch and mayo and called it a salad. A toasted tuna with a fuck ton of mayo before I toasted it, lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, olives, tomatoes, green peppers, onions, pickles, banana peppers, jalapenos, chipolte sauce, sriracha, sweet onion, salt, pepper, grated cheese and oregano.

At our local SUBWAY, one of the managers started a sandwich called "Dave", Footlong Italian BMT, on Herb & Cheese bread, With Marinara sauce, pepper cheese, Red onions, Jalapenos, Then toasted, before writing Their name in Southwest sauce, and Dave in BBQ.
This has now progressed to both SUBWAYS in our town, and a couple elsewhere, where you can just ask for "Dave" and get the sandwich without having to instruct. It may be more sauce than sandwich, but it is damn tasty.

One women came in and asked for a ton of mustard on her sandwich. I loaded that sandwich up with mustard and until I couldn't see anything underneath. I asked if that was enough and she said she wanted more. I must have put half the bottle on that sandwich by the time I was done. She looked very pleased with that sandwich at the end though.

This doesn't answer your question but I figured I'd still share it anyway.
I worked there last year for a few months. Some morbidly obese man came in and got the $5 footlong for that month. Can't remember what exactly which sandwich it was, but I remember that he got double everything. Double meat, veggies, etc. AND THEN, when I went to cut it in half, he said, "No it's okay, you don't have to cut it."
All I could picture in my head was this huge dude at home, sitting on his couch, scarfing down that sammich.

Not me but my friend Jim. He'd noticed that the oil he was using on the subs was a lot more bubbly than usual, and they used up most of it during the lunch rush... But he had a feeling something wasn't right.
You see, at his restaraunt they had floor polish that came in a similar container as the oil before they put if in the smaller squeeze tubes, similar color, and they stored them near each other too. Whoever prepped those tubes wasn't paying attention I guess and the floor polish ended up on the food prep line! 50 or more people ate a sandwich made with floor cleaner! And that's a pretoy awful, weird sandwich. The worst part is, not a single person complained if tasted funny, I can only hope no one got sick, that can't possibly be good for you. But no, not a single complaint the taste was off, and when management found out they decided to simply swap out the oil for the correct kind and tell no one.

Someone ordered a footlong white with only heated marinara sauce, untoasted, he made me pile it on until it started overflowing, then avocado on the other side. It was an interesting day of mopping the floor because the store overflowed with meatball sauce.

Yeah I once had this rude bitch of a customer order a sub with literally almost a whole bottle of mayo on it. Every time I looked like I was going to stop adding it she'd bite my head off.
It was disgusting trying to close, cut and wrap that thing. Mayo everywhere.

I don't work for Subway, but several years ago I went to a subway that was inside of a connivence store, anyways, the clerk of the store was infront of me inline and ordered a 12" mayonnaise sandwich. I thought it was a joke at first, but the subway folks put about 1.5" of mayo on the bread and wrapped it up and gave it the clerk.
Anyways, I order my sandwich still thinking this has to be a joke. On my way out of the store I see the clerk behind the counter about a quarter the way through the mayo sandwich.

Also why does everyone get the orange cheddar with Tuna? Like everyone. Most subs = white cheddar, but tuna subs are 100% without fail orange cheddar.

I've never worked at Subway or any other sandwich shop but one time when I went to Subway to get a sandwich, there was an older (probably in his 60s) gentleman in front of me, ordered 3 or 4 sandwiches. At least one of the sandwiches was for someone else, whom he was on the phone with. The person on the phone was telling him what kind of sandwich they wanted, and the man wanted to just give his phone to the girl making the sandwich but she was like "no I'm not gonna take your phone, you're just gonna have to tell me what to put on it." but anyways, when the girl was making his sandwich, he told her he wanted vinegar oil or some shit on there, well after she applied an average amount, he told her he wanted more. She put on a bit more. He kept saying more, more, more, more; this sandwich was soaked with vinegar oil, it was fucking gross.

Not me, but one of my friends owns two subway franchises with his dad. It's downtown in our city where there's a large number of homeless people.
He famously told us about the footlong meatball sub that a homeless guy ordered with "all the sauces." I can't imagine how soggy and disgusting it must have been, but it definitely gets full marks for caloric content.
Oh, and buddy watched him sit down and eat the whole thing. Apparently it was quite a spectacle.

Ugh, when they had "customer appreciation month" which meant discounts on meatball subs, this one couple ordered it and requested 4 times the amount of mustard and mayo we'd typically use on a sandwich. They also asked for "juh-LAH-peh-noes".
Also, not a weird sandwich order buuuut one other person asked for a "5 foot long". Thought she meant 5 separate foot long sandwiches, then she holds her hands about 1 foot apart, and looks at me with a serious stare "No, your 5 foot long sandwich!"

Meatball sub with lettuce. Southwest sauce and honey mustard. There was a girl who would come in every Tuesday and a order a foot long Spicy Italian with double meat and double cheese. She would get it toasted and it was so gross and greasy. This girl probably weighed 90 pounds.

Hey everyone, made my account just to contribute to this so hope it wasn't time wasted lmao.
I used to work in a subway in a train station in Northern England which mean't there were tourists, but none of them ate subways like Japs. (Forgive me for shortening the name)
It was a Sunday morning about 9 AM and a family of Jap tourists come in. And everyone of them had the same sandwich. Footlong brown bread (can't remember proper name), tuna, extra cheese, toasted, all salad, extra Jalapenos, southwest, hot chilli and mayo. I can't imagine what it tasted like but they loved it.
The idea of 'get as much of everything all in one creation' seemed to be popular among the Jap tourists and hats off to them. They can't half shove it down.

I once had a sandwich artist tell me that she would make my sandwich any way I wanted, and she really emphasised the any, so I told her that I wanted a Philly cheesesteak sub, but I wanted the debatably traditional cheesewiz for cheese. There was a taco bell in the same food court, and she went over to the taco bell and got a couple of containers of their nacho cheese for my sandwich, (which is really what I was asking.) Needless to say she got a tip.

Last time I tried the roast beef it was reminiscent of shoe leather... even worse, I inhaled some of the roast beef directly into my lungs...

You're on the verge of being over weight, and if you keep eating like that your weight will likely keep going up. 3 to 4 times per week is not a lot to work out,and foot long subs have a lot of calories.

One time I was at subway, and there was a little old lady ordering beside me. She even had an actual coin purse, just so you get the picture.
I was getting an Italian, with hots and oil & vinegar.
If I remember correctly the little old lady ordered a meatball sub, no cheese. But as the sandwich artist moved me along to the vegetable portion of the assembly line, it was as if the old lady forgot what she wanted, and all of a sudden started getting everything I was getting on her meatball sub.
"I'll have that with black olives..."
And then I hear an echo...
black olives
"....and can I also have spinach, peppers, and onions"
spinach, peppers, and onions
"A little tomato, and cucumbers please"
tomatoes and cucumbers
"And then oil and vinegar, and that should do it"
That's where I paused, waiting. Surely she wasn't going to put oil and vinegar on a meatball sub.
"Um, any sauce ma'am?"
oil and vinegar please
I just cringed, paid for my sandwich and imagined her first bite into her meatball sub with spinach, peppers, cukes, onions, black olives, and a nice drizzle of oil and vinegar.
Gross.
I felt sad when I got in my car and thought, "that's somebody's grandma". I wondered if I should have stopped her, intervened on her behalf... but eventually convinced myself that she did something heinous.
