Ya Had To Be There...............................LOL

Funny story.......today I'm riding with my boss between a job and a few estimates.  First thing we do is check on the crew in North Tonawanda.  They're looking for a cup of coffee so we say "no sweat, we'll go grab you some".  We head over to this goofy plaza on Payne Ave at Meadow Drive.  Why is it goofy you ask?  Do a Google Earth thingy.........

 

So we want to get the coffee at DD's and we get wheeling around all the damned "curbage" intended to herd people around like cattle and then end up at the drive thru.  The chic inside the bldg says "hello, what can I get you?"  Bob starts the order: 2 medium double double, small cream & sugar, 2 muffins and a................a a a what?  WTH do you mean do we want a burrito?  Bob looks at me and says holy crap, we're at Taco Bell!!  We peel out of their drive thru and go MAYBE 60' to the DD's drive thru.  We are laughing or azz off and can hardly get the order out!!

 

The two restaurants are stacked so close together it must happen often.  Heck McDonalds is only a softball toss right next door to these two joints.

 

So I guess you really had to be there to enjoy the humor.

 

Twas a bright spot in our day!

LMAO- WTH do you expect when you leave the boss alone with his wingman!

If you want something done right, you gotta do it yourself....

That plaza really is goofy and packed tight

[fasteddie]

Sounds like the people that go there are Goofy !

Asking the bank teller for a McWhopper w/ cheese can be embarrassing. Handing your signed paycheck and a deposit slip to the Drunken Donuts cashier...priceless.

Yup.....reminds me of the time MANY years ago when I asked my wife to go down to Cox's and buy me a seersucker suit...

 

She went to Sear's.....

To make matters worse of that plaza,the road between dd and taco bell is one way now because a couple ditzy soccer mom's couldn't make the turn without destroying the sides of their SUVs on the stop sign.

I think the people that lay out these parking lot mazes should go back to college to take some engineering courses. Might even be better off staying away from college and learn from a few old cogers.

  Hahaha that just reminded me...Our old house was right at the end of a T shaped intersection we had a dbl shared drive. Our lawyer had drafted a set of usage regulations for it and one was no one was allowed to have cars parked so many feet from the end to keep it clear for turning...so it was a straight run into the drive and there was a telephone pole 3ft off to the side at the road. A  Mom in her new mini van drops off Our daughter from a play date and then took off the entire drivers side of her car...I stood there yelling stop stop stop but from the first crunch on through to the mirror and then bumper leaving the car she just kept backing up like nothing was happening I'll never forget the blank look on her face ...like this isn't happening..lol
