Where Have All The Donut Lovers Gone?

My urge for donuts comes morning, noon or night. What a venture it is, with or without coffee, and, within a 24-hour flight. (AOC)

Although puzzling, here is an encounter that happened at a coffeehouse drive-thru:

Bet You Dollars To Donuts That They’re Fighting

BAD BEHAVIOR, CHARLESTON, DONUT SHOP

(My mother and I have decided to get a dozen donuts from a famous donut store. They have a light that indicates when the donuts are freshly baked, which is on when we pull into the drive-thru. We order a dozen plain donuts, as well as one specialized donut for each of us. When we pull up to the window to pay and get our donuts, an employee sticks his head out and say:)

Employee #1: “So… our fresh donuts are just about to go into the grease, which means they’ll be another five to seven minutes. But we have a dozen ready that have been sitting out for about five minutes. Would you rather wait to get them fresh, or have a dozen now?”

Mom: “Oh, we can wait.”

Employee #1: “Okay! It’ll just be about five to seven minutes.”

(He takes our card and gives us our specialized donuts, which we begin eating. Less than two minutes later, another employee appears with a box of donuts.)

Employee #2: “Here you go.”
(He hands my mom the box and then disappears. The problem? It’s completely cold. We’ve been given the box that was sitting for five minutes. We stay at the window for a couple of minutes and [Employee #2] eventually returns.)

Employee #2: “Was there something else?”

Mom: “Well… these donuts are cold. The other cashier said that if we waited, we would get fresh ones.”
(She holds the box out, expecting him to take it back since we haven’t opened it or touched the donuts. The employee sighs deeply, clearly frustrated.)

Employee #2: “I wish he would have told me)

Me: “So… Do we just get these for free, or…?”
Mom: “I don’t know?”
(A minute or so later, [Employee #1] returns.)

Employee #1: harshly “I’m sorry about his ignorance. He’s new. You can have a free dozen. Your fresh ones will be out in a minute.”
(He disappears before we can say anything. On the one hand, we just got a free dozen donuts; #on the other hand, what the heck just happened? When [Employee #1] comes back with our fresh donuts, my mom says:)

Employee #1: “No, it’s fine. Have a good night.”
(We left, still wildly confused at what was going on between those two employees.)

  1. It is lucky if they had them by the time I get there after work, they reduce the price to $1 each. They are big!

  2. I love my local “source” and they have Der Dutchman (Amish) donuts. My very favorite are their maple bacon long johns. I like the way the whipped cream filling seems very much like only a small amount of sugar added. A rare vanilla treat, which is just perfect in my mind (and taste buds!) 😋

      1. Aww! I’m blushing. . .🤗
        Heading off to my warehouse job and this brightened my morning. Have a serene Sunday! 🌞

  3. I confess. I use to be a big lover of donuts. Time, age and weight has come between me and the love for Donuts. .
