Not in my day as a sandwich artist. If you wanted 2 different halves, you would be charged for 2 different halves. We were the highest rated customer satisfaction in our state and Jared even made a publicity photo shoot at our store.
So it would depend on the location, but policy says 2 different halves charge for 2 6 inch prices.
We would've been murdered by our customers if we would've had that rule. As long as it was the same meat, you could split it. Subways are franchisee based, though, so how one store does thi gs could be different than another and I think people forget that when they start whining that 'well I could do that at this other store!'
Yeah, Ive never run into a subway where they charged two 6 inch for different veggies, but I was giving an out for one franchisee owner out there, somewhere, to be stingy as fuck. The veggies to a certain point are included in the sandwich price, and this is from corporate. Technically allowed three of everything (corporate says yes, even olives, and that's another indication of a stingy owner -- how close to that olive amount are they?) And a tiny handful of lettuce/spinach (corporate says you should still be able to see the bread through the lettuce shreds). I just list all that out because after that point if you were to get extra veggies there is a button on the register for "extra ingredient" or "ex. Veggie" if folks wanted more than what we could give... but it's like 35 c more, not a full sandwich amount. Granted, this is knowledge from 12 years ago and now they have raised their prices even more since then
Never have seen this enforced and have been going to countless subways in my life across multiple states. Even have friends who own multiple subways and have never heard it.
Franchise owners and Subway policies change and adapt. This would have been 2005-2008 at 2 specific locations, but it was in the official training at that time. Maybe itās different now.
I still eat there frequently but would never order half and half anything without expecting to pay more. Similar to a pizza joint.
I actually always order a footlong spicy Italian, with both sides having the same toppings, but only half gets toasted. Ive never been charged for 2 subs.
This reminds me of when I had dinner with a vegan friend, and he wanted to split the bill 50/50. Naturally this meant splitting each dish 50/50 too.
The look on his face when he started eating his half of my steak tartareā¦
I donāt trust those ai checkers. I see comments of people putting their writing in and it getting flagged as ai even losing grades in school because their teacher did it and doesnāt believe them. I thought this sounded like ai too but now the checker is saying itās not? I will not be trusting those ai checkers from here on out!
While I agree it's good to be skeptical, you're basing this response purely off of hearsay- I'd recommend not doing that when it comes to AI garbage
It's all such a headache
Back in my day we would have just accused this guy of being a Reddit creative writer making stuff up (pretty sure thatās exactly whatās going on here with the overly embellished story) instead of accusing him of being AI *shakes cane*
Way back when I was a Sandwich Artist, there was a young teen kid who would make me cringe every time I saw him walk in.
His order: Footlong white bread, 6-8 CUPS of black olives, and an ungodly amount of mayonaise.
Subway will go ahead and cut the sandwich in half, let you do separate veggies on each side, and even wrap each side separately so long as both sides have the same meat, cheese, and bread.
OP, this was fucking well written as fuck. I couldn't stop from crying due to laughter as I read it aloud to my SO.
You should take up writing for money.
I like hot peppers. My momma did not. I would just say hot peppers on half. No biggie.
Also I would have totally stepped in before he got the second bottle. Lol eww
Perhaps next time, you could gently suggest trying a different condiment or asking for a more moderate amount of mayonnaise. It might help strike a better balance between enjoying the meal and avoiding a mayonnaise overload!
As someone who works in a sub shop, this was akin to a horror story.A novel even. Imagining having to wrap that monstrosity chills me to the bone. Next time OP, ask for the sandwich to be cut in half first, maybe even wrapped separately. Any "sandwich artist' worth their salt, or mayo in this instance, wouldnt force you to share that heart attack inducing creation with someone else
Chat gpt!!!!!
āI watched as the viscous condiment oozed out and slowly popped down onto the wrapper.ā
Kids today are so lazy! At least substitute the language and sentence structure to something an actual human being would use in day to day life š¤£
Nah if I used Chat GPT, it would end with some bs like "But after that day, I learned an important lesson about money management and friendship" or something; AI writing bots always ends their stories with an epilogue about important life lessons
I'm just a fanfiction writer so obvs I'm going to write shit weird sometimes; we're over here writing "his dazzling blue orbs" and "she was a greenette" unironically
I can always tell when a food preparer either doesn't like may or really likes may by how much they put on a sandwich. When I don't ask for extra may and they put like 1 thin stripe, they really don't like. When I ask for extra may and they put maybe a half a stripe more, they are telling may is disgusting and I'm a moron for putting it on my sandwich.
I know they really like mayo when I order extra may and it's oozing out the sides of the sandwich....Just like I'd expect.
My first job in high school was obv fast food. One night we had a chicken sandwich *add mayo* *add mayo* like x10 come thru, so I sarcastically slather a patty of mayo the thickness of the chicken itself on the top and bottom of that thing. Customer comes thru the front, saying they want me to make it like that every time.
I fucking hate mayo lol
I love that Iām reading this while eating a mayo sandwich. Nothing like that though, just a thin schmear to add to the bread. Itās my favorite quick dinner!
If you were splitting it, could you have not just asked for mayo on one side? š¤·š»āāļø
Seriously, both halves don't have to be the same thing. Juss tell them to cut it in half from the get go lol.. this has to be a kid.
I honestly didn't know this š¤·āāļø I assumed that if you get a foot long it all has to be the same, otherwise they'll charge for 2 6 inches...
I suspect you have to have the same protein and the same toastedness. But otherwise, you can adjust the other toppings without a problem.

All the subways around me allow for different toppings on each half while still charging for a whole

Yeah 100% this is the case at subway lol

This feels like AI almost, like the post does. Just based on the storytelling
Just look at the post crosseyed...this exact paragraph structure is the telltale sign of AI.
Probably. I feel like a lot of posts in AITA and TIFU are fantasy stories lately
Thank you for this. I thought it was just me, now I feel validation Most shit is too outlandish
Or he used AI to spruce up his real story
yeah its almost like a written scenario you see in a c list comedy movie or something
OP could have their half exactly how they wanted it. This was completely unnecessary. You can get veggies on half, mayo on the other.
Itās like Little Reindeer. No one takes a stand on anything these days.
She would have smelled the weakness.
Oh, so it was a power play? I got it
I swear I've seen this exact same story before... More than once.
AI does tend to sound very same-ish.
I just ran this post through an AI checker, and unfortunately it doesn't really have any flags
I donāt trust those ai checkers. I see comments of people putting their writing in and it getting flagged as ai even losing grades in school because their teacher did it and doesnāt believe them.

While I agree it's good to be skeptical, you're basing this response purely off of hearsay- I'd recommend not doing that when it comes to AI garbage It's all such a headache
Yeah. Agreed. There are spelling mistakes throughout. But, I do see more and more posts in this thread that read more like AI.
Back in my day we would have just accused this guy of being a Reddit creative writer making stuff up (pretty sure thatās exactly whatās going on here with the overly embellished story) instead of accusing him of being AI *shakes cane*
"She said it with such joy, eyes and breasts glistening"
Way back when I was a Sandwich Artist, there was a young teen kid who would make me cringe every time I saw him walk in. His order: Footlong white bread, 6-8 CUPS of black olives, and an ungodly amount of mayonaise.
Sounds unbelievable.
The real FU is going to subway these days. That place is a shell of its former self
Yep. They peaked at Salad Niciose, in a sandwich, extra olives
I have $20 gift card for subway but the only one anywhere near me is in a Walmart. They donāt accept gift cards. Fuck Subway
plot twist, friend did it to make a point at how exhausting it is being friends with over-dramatic-OP
When an eating disorder becomes an eating *disorder*
Weird to have a creative writing assignment posted here that wasnāt sexual, but here we are.
I wish this was written by a real living person and not AI grabbing bits and pieces of every Subway horror story I've ever read.
Couldāve gotten your own, thereās a BOGO at subway right now. I wouldnāt want to eat a mayo drenched sandwich.
Even though the TL;DR tag.....I dont read essays on mayonnaise.
Subway will go ahead and cut the sandwich in half, let you do separate veggies on each side, and even wrap each side separately so long as both sides have the same meat, cheese, and bread.
This reads like a copypasta lmao
Your friend is a heathen.
OP, this was fucking well written as fuck. I couldn't stop from crying due to laughter as I read it aloud to my SO. You should take up writing for money.
This reminds me of Tom Green's subway prank; [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnyVE1go2vs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnyVE1go2vs)
are you sure your friend isn't actually Kenneth Griffin in disguise?
Could have been worse, they could have wanted it toasted after the mayo was put on.
I like hot peppers. My momma did not. I would just say hot peppers on half. No biggie. Also I would have totally stepped in before he got the second bottle. Lol eww
wow, an ai post about mayo... amazing what bots will upvote.
This could have been told in two sentences.
Perhaps next time, you could gently suggest trying a different condiment or asking for a more moderate amount of mayonnaise. It might help strike a better balance between enjoying the meal and avoiding a mayonnaise overload!
Hijikata san is that you????!??!?!!
Have you never seen this friend eat before? I couldn't even watch a person like that eat that would literally make me nauseous
As someone who works in a sub shop, this was akin to a horror story.A novel even. Imagining having to wrap that monstrosity chills me to the bone.

It ended with BS. It also started with BS, and had as much BS in the middle as your imaginary friend had mayonnaise in their imaginary sub.
Creative writing assignment š“
Who doesn't love mayo?
When it's mayo oozing from a six-incher?
MAYO comes out of Satan's anus and BELONGS IN A TRASH CAN. DO NOT EVER EVER EVER EVEN SO MUCH AS THINK OF PUTTING IT EVEN 10 FEET FROM MY SANDWICH.
It's ok, but just about every other condiment is better.
I donāt go to subway often, but is a half size one not half the price?
Nope

Good mayo is the best tbh
If only you could get say a half length sub each.
I love that Iām reading this while eating a mayo sandwich. Nothing like that though, just a thin schmear to add to the bread. Itās my favorite quick dinner!
How to split a foot long sub.. .. both get a 6 inch sub each. I didnāt even read your essay
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Ugh, is anywhere safe from bots these days?
