What in the world did you say to me?

Have you ever been in a situation where someone says something to you and you say or think, "What in the world did you say to me?" It seems that I have more then my fair share of these moments. The one that seems to top the list happened to me at a Burger King.

It was on a Saturday and Sarah and I were driving to my parents house for a get together. My mom was making dinner, but we wouldn't be eating for a couple hours after we got there. We were starving and wanted to stop and get a little something to eat on the way, to hold us over. So, we decided to run through the Burger King drive thru.

Since it wouldn't be that long until we ate, we only wanted something small. We ordered 2 small cheeseburgers, a small order of fries, and a drink to split. After paying and receiving our food, we drove off. It was at that point Sarah opened our bag and realized that, instead of cheeseburgers, we were given 2 double Whoppers. We knew that if we took them back they would have to be thrown away, so we thought about just eating what part of the double Whoppers we wanted and going on. But, since neither one of us like all the stuff that comes on a double whopper, we decided to turn around and take them back.

So, we go back and I walk inside with the bag of double Whoppers and go to the counter. There is a manager there and I explain to her that we had ordered cheeseburgers, but were given double Whoppers by mistake. She said to me, "I am sure I gave you 2 cheeseburgers." I was a little taken back, but I just reasserted that we were given the wrong thing. That is when she said it. She snatched the bag out of my hand, and as she was turning said "I don't know what type of scam you are trying to pull. I know I gave you 2 cheeseburgers." I was stunned. I didn't say it, but I sure thought "What in the world did you say to me?" As I stood there with my chin to the floor, I look to my right to see another employee looking at me with an expression on his face like "She is crazy". He even mouthed to me "I'm so sorry". She gave me my cheeseburgers and off I went. Unable to say anything from the shock of what she said.

Now that I think about it, I laugh. What kind of scam does a person pull when they pay for double Whoppers (three times as expensive as small cheeseburgers) then return them to only get 2 cheeseburgers. That doesn't make a lot of sense. My guess is that she was just having a bad day or a bad week or even a bad year.

Have you had any "What in the world did you say to me" moments?
