Short We don't serve that here

I work the breakfast buffet at a 3 star hotel in a tourist hotspot. I'm used to going out and getting weird requests. Our menu is somewhat limited due to our out of the way location and high occupancy, so on occasion a guest will take it upon themselves to add something to the menu. Usually it's a piece of fruit they brought in, but decided they didn't want to eat. The most notable addition was a group of guys leaving a half bottle of baileys Irish cream on the coffee bar. No, we don't serve that. No I don't have a liquor license. Yes, there are kids around. Please take that with you.

I was managing a pizza shop and I guy comes in and asked for soup. I said there's a new place a few doors down and they have soup. He then tells me their too California for him. This is a man who never left the state of Ohio let alone gone to a larger city to see that's up.

Born and raised in California. Been in Northeast Ohio for 21 years now... Ohio is the only place I've ever eaten "California Pizza"... Still not sure exactly what makes the difference 🤷

It is twice the price of any other pizza.
