Keeping them...
... on their toes! You can always find the "extraordinary ordinary" at Ed's with its late night, comfort food offerings of pizza sticks, paninis, milkshakes, and smoothies. But how can we ensure that the "extraordinary ordinary" does not become the "ordinary ordinary"? Ordinarily, a hall wouldn't worry about this, but this is Ed's, and this is of paramount concern to its manager, sandwich artists, and culinary service representatives. To ensure that the high standards of the best campus eatery are kept, constant testing methods are employed. The manager of Ed's, Parker Imlay, might stop by during a shift, or customer feedback may be solicited through various and sundry ways- namely in Venmo payment comments. But once in awhile, something more dramatic must be employed.
Last night was one of those nights. When a customer stop by ordering $2 worth of pizza sticks and asked for change, culinary service representative, Mark Giugliano, thought something was out of place, and he was right. Giugliano noticed that customer was paying with none other than an Abraham Lincoln $1million dollar note. On catching the oddity, Giugliano said, "We all know that Chester Arthur is on the $1million dollar note! Plus, this is exactly how much money Ed’s lost last year!" Good eye kid... good eye kid.
