Deduction

A conversation today between me and a disembodied voice from a drive-through squawk box.  Just imagine the pimply faced fast food jockey from the Simpson’s.

Voice: Welcome to Wendy’s, can I interest you in a combo meal today?

Me: Yeah.  I’d like a Number 4 combo meal, large size, with a Coke.  And also a 4-piece chicken nugget.

Voice: Um… Number… 4… meal… [ pause ]… What size?

Me: Large size.  With a Coke.  And a 4-piece chicken nugget.

Voice: Um… large… size… [ pause ]… What to drink?

Me: A Coke.  And a 4-piece chicken nugget.

Voice: Um… Coke… [ pause ]… Anything else today?

Me: A 4-piece chicken nugget.

Voice: Um… 4… piece… chicken… [ pause ]… Anything else today?

Me: Nope. [ pause ]  First day on the job?

Voice: Um… How’d you know?

Me: Lucky guess.
