The "more" rule

We have all been there before. Whether it be at Subway, Quiznos, Chipolte, or any other fast food place that has stations. There comes a point during the transaction where you feel you have been screwed by the size of the portion given at one of the particular stations and wish to ask for more of it. And as well all know, you generally only get one "more" per transaction without the maker of the food saying "well that's going to cost extra then."

So there is a huge decision one has to make every time he or she steps into one of these restaurants. Using your "more" option too soon, on say the rice, might result in you being unable to ask for more chicken when she inevitably shorts you on that. I suppose it is all a matter of priorities. But you have to realize that you forfeit your right to more of a station once that station has been passed. In a way it is like a complicated form of deal or no deal that you play every single time you make an order.

I guess my point is that you should never ask for more of an inferior topping, like rice. I was burned by this last night and therefore was shorted on chicken. You need to know what the most important topping for yourself is before getting in line. As an American, it is your right and duty to ALWAYS you use your "more" option at least once per transaction. I sure as hell know I do.
