I've always thought they weren't a restaurant at all. Think about it. What benefit does a restaurant give? There are only 3. They cook the food. They serve the food. They clean up the dishes.
Subway does none of those. They count Zero on the restaurant scale. They don't even have recipes. They advertise that they do - the new chicken carbonara! Try asking for it. "What do you want on that?" I answer "I don't know, what does it come with?" They say "It doesn't come with anything." Once I dragged the signpost from the doorway over to the counter and pointed at the ad, which included a list of ingredients. "I want that". The poor girl cried.
The pinnacle of incompetence was my son asking for a BLT. "What do you want on it?" My god.
You clearly know what Subway's deal is, but something about it doesn't agree with you? It almost sounds like you were trolling them, or playing dumb just to get a reaction out of them.
And? Are you somehow obligated to do business with them? When you choose to hand over your money to them, you're not conveying the message that their sandwiches are substandard, or that they provide zero service.
I don't. In the last 10 years, I've only gone there when somebody else wanted it. On a car trip, or with business associates etc. Just enough to make me hate them all over again.
