swingchickie...people who order things by saying "i want".
the person in front of me in dunking donuts this morning: "yeah, i want a dozen donuts... i want two glazed, a chocolate iced..."
maybe it's just me, but i hate the way "i want" sounds. it seems so rude. what about, "hi, can i please have..." or even "yes, i'd like..." but "yeah, i want..." just makes me cringe. *grumble*
