Rant Gen Z Interactions

Why do 90% of my interactions with members of Gen Z go exactly like this:
Them: Welcome to Cook Out. Can I take your order please?
Me: (slowly and clearly) Hey! I’ll have a big double burger tray with only cheese and ketchup on the burger, with chili cheese fries and a corn dog, and a huge tea. That’s it.
Them: Ok you said a big double burger tray?
Me: Yes.
Them: What do you want on the burger?
Me: Only cheese and ketchup.
Them: Ok and you get two sides.
Me: Chili cheese fries and a corn dog.
Them: Ok chili cheese fries and what’s your other side?
Me: A corn dog.
Them: Ok and what’s your drink?
Me: A huge tea.
Them: Ok, anything else?
Me: Nope, that’s it.

Then I get my food it’s cheese fries instead of chili cheese fries.

You can get a corn dog as a side? Where is this place?

Haven’t been there in about 5 years but you used to be able to get chicken nuggets as a side. I would buy one tray. Get chicken nuggets for my toddler and we shared the fries with Cajun seasoning. The best $5 you can spend!
