After the server requests your order, which below are you most likely to respond with?

A. "Give me a..."

B. "I'll have a..."

C. "Can/May I have..."

D. Other (specify)



*Pro tip: If you responded with A or B (and likely D, depending on your wiseacre-like answer), you're a savage.

This is usually what I say, or some variation of a polite request.

A. "Give me a..."


When I was in the industry, this and “Lemme get a…” always came from the non-tipping demographics.

Sorry, but B is incorrect. A McDonald's cashier once corrected my friend by informing him that he "ain't having anything. He could ORDER something."
