Sandwich FAIL

The cafeteria in my building makes pretty good sandwiches. I am especially fond of the BLT (minus the T), and their Egg Salad. Today I got my usual egg salad sandwich and watched incredulously as the lunch lady did this:


The attentive reader will immediately see the problem. HOW DO I GET THE SANDWICH OUT OF THE BOX?

I took a fork with me and managed to get one half out without losing too much of the gooey content, but really. Why make lunch so difficult?

Should I really have to PRY my sandwich out of its form-fitting container?

This is what they call one of those "first-world problems," isn't it?

The problems of Haiti pale in comparison, if that's what you mean.

Id take that egg salad and throw it on the GROUND

I feel like you could just idk open the contain and tip it upside down onto your hand.... but idk that might be too complex of a movement for you monkey boy.


That was a little harsh... oh well.

That would have resulted in the catastrophic loss of egg containment. Not pretty.

The moral of the story is you can't trust the system.

Perhaps you could use an exacto knife to cut away the sides of the box, leaving the sandwich unmolested.
