"Hello! You've reached-"

"Mandy. Hi."

"Just Brent, hello."

"You remembered."

"How can I forget the one and only person who calls Chick-fil-A for relationship advice?"

"Yeah, I'll give you that. But I'm serious, you're a girl, I need advice. Girl advice."

"I don't know. My boss could walk by at any moment and I'm not sure-"

"Well, how about this..."

"I'm listening."

"So, say I'm a fry, okay? And this girl is a chicken nugget."

"Okay."

"And this fry, he wants to talk to this nugget, but she's around a lot of...spicy nuggets. Which, this fry doesn't like spicy."

"Okay.."

"This fry also wants to, uh. Get inside of...this nugget's breading.."

"Okay..."

"How would this fry accomplish something like that?"

"Huh. Well, I think-"

"How would this fry accomplish this without leaving any strings attached and not make the wrong impression or a reputation and keep his charming status?"

"In that case, I have no clue. Most girls aren't down for things like that, unless they're desperate I guess. Or just adventurous."

"Okay, well how would I do it without those things?"

"Get to know her, let her get to know you, ask her out, be respectful and nice. Date a little and when the time is right then ask to or just make a respectful move."

"Define respectful."

"Look, just Brent. I don't have time for this, I got a job to do."

"I know, I know. But I seriously like this girl and I- I'm not-"

"I'm sorry, sir. If you come in today before 10:00 PM, I'm sure we can set you up with a full refund, and we will be sure it doesn't happen again. See you then, have a good day."

"Huh? Did your boss just walk by or something?"

"Yes."

"Do you have to actually do your job now?"

"Okay, goodbye sir. Thank you for your feedback."

"Alright then, I'll call tomorrow."
