Dear new Subway kid,

We've all been there. The first few days on the job can be rough, trying to get everything figured out. I can understand that it might take a little while, maybe you move a little slower at first, it's fine.

But let's just discuss the construction of my 6-inch Turkey on wheat this evening.

I mean, what happened there? It's not incredibly difficult to make. It wouldn't seem to make much difference, but when one is a Subway connoisseur, like myself (we're talkin at least twice a week here), the structure of the sandwich makes all the difference. Would we want to compromise the integrity of the sandwich by making it incorrectly? I think not.

Bread? Good. Meat? Let's talk. You gotta fold it. Three slices, each folded in half. If you just lay it on there, it crosses over to the other side, which, in folding, disturbs the placement of the toppings.

The toasting went well. The fact that you didn't know where the honey mustard was located disturbed me just a little, but I overlooked it. Only 2 slices of tomato, not three. Distribute the pickles just a little more. Green peppers--well done.

I suppose the spinach was my fault. I never ask for it. While I do enjoy it in a salad, it's just not the best thing on the sammy. But! I wouldn't have asked for it if there had been an adequate amount of lettuce there already. Just saying.

It wasn't a terrible sandwich. It still had the right ingredients (except the spinach, most of which I removed), so the potential was there, but it lacked in a very serious manner. The composure was just all wrong. Mostly, I didn't like the fact that sometimes the only thing I got in a mouthful was turkey and bread. Even distribution is key for the optimum enjoyment.

I appreciate your efforts, new Subway kid. I certainly hope that when we meet again, this will all be remedied and my sandwich will be excellent once again. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Kelsey, who occasionally gets desperate when she's working a long shift at the grocery store across the parking lot and could use a really good meal to get through the rest of the night.
