Most food shops have some type of requirement to wait for the cashier/associate to either offer certain options or ring the order up before asking for add-ons. In the case where certain add-ons are required, I find it hard to just stare at the menu hoping the cashier will do their job properly.
For example, today I asked for a burger. The cashier just stared at me so I asked for the toppings I wanted. Then I studied the menu, the cashier gazed into space quietly. After twenty seconds passed I added a drink. Then back to gazing and a few yawns. I am trying to follow the guidelines: not prompt them and wait for them to total the order. After thirty additional seconds I asked for fries, then they asked anything else and I said no.
I've had similar experiences waiting for an associate to just communicate, not just stare at me. Every time I get to a point where I say something to get things moving. I then sweat it out hoping my report is not rejected.
Do any of you just stand there indefinitely waiting for the cashier or associate to act?
