She crawled her way slowly toward the menu sign... and then pressed too hard on the brakes, lurching the car forward as it dipped to a stop. Both women bounced around in their seats.
The shocks in the car were shot. It was as if they were sitting on a trampoline.
Once the car settled down, she backed up so she could get a better view of the outdoor menu.
They took a long time deciding what they wanted to eat and when the voice in the speaker finally thanked her for her order and to move forward... I noticed her car was still in reverse! She started to inch her way toward me and I was just about to honk at her, when she noticed her mistake, breaking hard again.
Even more bouncing. Little round fuzzy white hair-dos rolling all over the front seat.
Eventually, she made her way to the first window and paid for their order. And as she drove up to the second window to receive their food, she simply waved, "thank you, darlin'!" and continued to drive out of the parking lot and turned right and drove down the street, forgetting to pick up their lunch!
I pulled up to the front window... still giggling to what I had just witnessed.
The Jack in the Box employee rolled her eyes and blew out a breath so hard, her bangs blew upward. "Old people!!!! Look what we have to look forward to!"
Reminds me of this joke:
