I'm a regular at my local Panera. When I say regular, I mean...every day. Or nearly so. Mainly because, hey, free wi-fi! All the mountain dew I can drink! The staff know me by name, they let me sit and websurf until THEY'RE ready to go home, etc.

I order pretty much the same thing (or rather, two different things, but they're pretty much regular orders). And I always get extra extra pickles with my sammich, which is anywhere from three to six, depending on who's making the sammich that day.

So.

I ordered a you pick two with soup and my normal (though half-sized) sammich.

And came to pick it up...

Only to find an entire jar's worth of pickles on my tray.

Queue laughtrack by entire Panera staff and furious blushing and squeaks of amused outrage by yours truly.

I love my Panera.

Addendum:

I baked stuff for Thanksgiving, and brought cake and pumpkin bread in for the staff to try. Come closing, one of my friends on staff? Gives me a bag of my favorite bagels for my freezer.

I love my Panera.
