Are you a regular at some restaurants/places that the employees can remember your usual order?
For me, it can be a good thing or bad thing. I have experienced them both.
+ Good thing, is they will give you more food since you are a loyal customer and returning.
- Bad thing, is sometimes they feel their food is good, good enough for me to be a regular and they will slack on the food, a better word would be over confidence.
What are your thoughts? Have you encountered being a "regular" so much that the employees can remember your orders? Is it a good outcome or a bad one?

We enjoy being regulars at local markets-some give us better deals on certain products it seems.

That is really good to hear they gave good deals for you since they remembered you!

We always go to the same place to eat, and I think some workers there recognize us, as we are bringing two children. I guess people can recognize children easier. I don't feel any special for being that, as I think they always have many regular customers since those restaurants I go are near where I stay.

Yes I was until a the place went down hill. We live in the boonies, small town 10 miles away - new place opened. I sorta reinvented one of their sandwiches...when we would go there they didn't even ask what I wanted....they knew...but it went down the preferable toilet.

I used to own a hot dog cart and had regular customers. They would walk up and say "my usual please"

@infatuatedbby . . . I am a regular customer of Tim Hortons coffee here in Calgary, Canada. Every morning I buy a cup of coffee from Tim Hortons. I always order medium, double-double. One morning one of the girls handed me extra large-double-double. To my surprise she just charged me $1.75 . . . the cost of a medium.

I like dark green leafy vegetables, is there a reason why you do not like that kind of vegetable?
