>Go to Taco Bell
>"Hey, can I get a (meal)"
>Cashier gets indignant about the way I worded the question
How do you ask for food?
>"Hi, I'll have a (food item) please"
In most taco bells I've been to recently, the drive thru worker always starts the interaction with "hi, how are you?"
I'd be an absolutely douche if I launched into "can i get a..." immediately

>Can I get a meal
What would you do is she said no
>>34812623
I wanted the chalupa meal

This was after she asked me that, I think she expected may's and please's

>This was after she asked me that
you're gonna have to greentext the whole convo then
>How do you ask for food?
Literally "Hey, can I get a (meal)". If someone gets snappy at you for that, either you live in a shithole where people are weirdly pushy about small talk, they're just a cunt, or you fucked up the delivery somehow.
It's hard to give advice blind without knowing where you're from or how you talk. Maybe you made it sound too much like a statement/order and not enough like a question, maybe you mumbled or had poor body language which pissed them off, maybe you can take them at face value and realign your diction to local cultural norms - though desu I'd pick that option last, normies never mean what they say, they just pick whatever words reflect their butthurt good enough

Walk into taco bell, she tell me I have pretty hair, ask me what I want, tell her can I get chalupa meal combo (I forget what number), she curl lip and and ask where I learn to talk to people
what state are you in? the big city ordering styles aren't going to play well in smaller towns. like if you grew up in a metropolitan area and are at college in bumfuck

this reminds me of the time i went into Arby's late one night and there was a black female cashier who said something like "you a shy boy, ain't you?" I don't even know how I responded.

Sounds like she was hitting on you.
