One of my favorite restaurants is Waffle House. Really. They’re the legit best when it comes to high-quality greasy spoon breakfast foods. I’ve been enjoying Waffle House since my college days, and some of my best (and worst) memories were made there. One thing I love about Waffle House is that they have their own unique language when it comes to how they order food with their cooks. I don’t know the language, but it’s fun to listen to. I can imagine that’s what happened to the waitress in the joke below. She was probably new to the job and didn’t know all of the lingo. However, she picked it up quickly and got her own little jab in. I love her sassy comeback. Enjoy this hilarious joke. And by the way, that breakfast sounds delicious.
A trucker came into a truck stop cafe and placed his order. “I want three flat tires, a pair of headlights and a pair of running boards.”
The brand new blonde waitress, not wanting to appear stupid, went to the kitchen and said to the cook, “This guy out there just ordered three flat tires, a pair of headlights and a pair of running boards. What does he think this place is, an Auto Parts store?”
“No,” the cook said. “Three flat tires mean three pancakes, a pair of headlights is two eggs sunny side up, and running boards are 2 slices of crisp bacon.”
“Oh, OK!” said the blonde. She thought about it for a moment and then spooned up a bowl of beans and gave it to the customer.
The trucker asked, “What are the beans for, Blondie?”
She replied, “I thought while you were waiting for the flat tires, headlights, and running boards, you might as well gas up!”
