One thing I will never understand

Why.! In.! The.! shitwhole world do cashiers at restaurants HAVE to know what you want right now? When clearly I am standing there looking up at the menu and dramatically squinting my eyes just to communicate "I'm nowhere NEAR ready to order!"!!!!!

I was at a restaurant (doesn't matter which one, cause they all do it) that I had never been to before, there were two people in front of me that had already ordered, one person behind me. I could feel the cashier wanting to get my order, but I had just gotten there.

"What can I get you, sir?", half a second goes by, "SIR, can I get you something?" I squint as hard as I can to further communicate that I am not ready. Two seconds go by, I reply "...ummm,can I have a second please?" She addresses the person behind me, "Sir! He ain't ready you can step up and order." The guy behind me says nothing. She sighs. She looks at her fingernails, then turns around to talk to anyone she can find to show that she does not care about us any longer.

I say, I'll have the Mr. Sub please." She looks out the window at whatever and pretends to be so enthralled that she spaced out on my order, so i leaned over the counter to bust her on the fact that she wasn't looking at anything. She wasn't. Then when she turns her head back, our heads were really close, and she didn't flinch. We've been doin' each other ever since.
