Sandwich Board

My second time visiting Sandwich Board! They are a family owned business and have been around for more than 50 years?! I think it’s more actually. They specialize in “fresh” turkey. No preservatives and they make their own bread. I love all the specials they have and will absolutely go back during my lunch.

It was an hour before closing, so not sure if they just ran out of ingredients, but my cheese sandwich had literally two slices of cheese and the most pathetic shreds of lettuce I’ve ever seen. I felt sad while eating it. Sad for me, sad for the little sandwich that couldn’t, sad for the Sandwich Board.

Let me start by saying that the sandwiches are real tasty. However, I do have some issues with how the place handles business. The owner put a cutout of an article on the wall about how he was fighting an ADA (American Disabilities Act) lawsuit, which is a weird thing to be proud of. Also, every time I visit there is some sort of organizational issue (i.e. my friend ordered soup, which was promoted on a sign, tasted awful and no employee could find a spoon or even knew where one would be. Many times, something couldn't be wrung up at the register etc). I've worked enough jobs in the service industry to know that those problems stem from leadership, who may want to reconsider their priorities. I might return to see if things improve, but it will be hard to feel good about going back.
