Wednesday evening I pulled into a Burger King (don't you judge me!) for a snack before choir rehearsal. A couple of the employees where in the parking lot as I drove in, and as soon as I got to the counter they started in with the questions. It went something like this
Her: What kind of car is that?
Me: It's a Tesla.
Her: Who makes it?
Me: Tesla. It's a new American car company.
Her: It's so quiet - it's amazing!
Me: It's all electric. No gas engine.
Her: Really? How's it do on (pause) gas?
Me: No gas, but it gets the equivalent of 89 mpg.
Her: Really? That's crazy.
Her - to another employee: It's a Tesla.
Third employee, walking by and overhears this: You got a Tesla? You got a wife?
This went on for about 5 minutes of Tesla time before I could even get my order in. It really caused a stir, with one of the employees running out to look at the car, and taking quite a bit of time to talk to people about it. The manager eventually had to tell her to get back to work.
