Another huge turn off for me is when someone walks in there and makes multiple orders. Then just to really make that blade turn in the gut is when they make an individual transaction for each sandwich. I agree. The worst is when someone orders a salad bowl. They get out their star wars cutting tool and it takes hours to make.

I might have mentioned this before, but I had a friend, Dave, that had several Subway locations. He was making a load of money. He said the secret to his success was hiring a lot of really cute, really well built, high school girls to work there. His locations were always packed at lunch.

I haven't seen any such employee at a Subway in years; its usually the opposite.

Our local subway was ran by Indians from India and the girls they had were not hot. It smelled good though, considering the usual horrid stench of them guys from not bathing. Now its American ran, and they have some high school girls in there now working.

I spent 15 years on commercial jobsites eating sandwiches 3-4 days a week. I am now anti-sammich. Only time I like a sandwich is if I have a fresh tomato to go on it.
Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

I prefer Jimmy Johns and Jersey Mikes as far as chain joints go.

The consumer has passed judgement on Subway as they closed over 900 locations in 2017 on top of hundreds closed in 2016. A real Rueben is on Rye bread, not white. Subway Fail.

You’d drive 50 miles for a sandwich? Sometimes it’s that far out of town to my job site. You’d get pretty hungry

Eat Subway all the time, but prefer Jimmy Johns. Jimmy John's is a bit more expensive.

Spent my pre-teen, teen, and most of my adult life in the sub/hogie/grinder region from DC, Maryland, Delaware, Philadelphia, Jersey, and NY city. What is being sold today around here is not even passable. Closest I ever got was Billadelphia's, God rest it's soul, really great cheese steaks if you could get the cooks to understand 'onions first, meat on top'...
Only at the end do you realize the power of the Dark Side.

Subway is ok, and it's a healthy choice relative to most other fast food. But I have eaten there ten million times and just can no longer drag myself in their doors. They should pay me millions of dollars like they did jared. And as a bonus I'm not a pedophile. I'm a hunter. I would wear camo in the commercials too. I'm thinking some good old MODB.

Son-in-law owns a Lenny's franchise. I think they have some decent, healthy choices.
Every Subway I've ever been in the kids working seem depressed to be there and I get behind the lady with the list from the office of what all her high-maintenance co-workers want on their sandwiches.

Ive seen a few pretty happy subway workers. On a few occasions when the only workers were 2 boy/girl highschool aged kids working. Rang the bell for service and heard some shuffling around in back then out came the guy adjusting his clothing as he walked and a few minutes later here came the girl doing the same and then her hair lol.

Lenny's had a decent sandwich the couple of times that I went to one, but they don't have jalapenos as an option. Sorry, if you're going to do business in Texas, you need to offer jalapenos. All they had was some kind of sweet hot pepper mix. This was the one in Rockwall a couple of years ago.
