You can’t just go changing the script like that.
friendly reminder that this is a sympton of Anxiety
If you have anxiety/issues communicating under stress and have to do this (i.e. no one to do the ordering for you.) Here is something you can do which helps alleviate the stress on remembering your order/ dealing with ‘scripts.’
1) take a notepad and pen with you (you can get little pocket sized sets for handbags etc.)
2) write down what you want *before* you join the queue.
3) Get to the front: if you can order verbally using the list as a prompt, fine. If not: hand them the paper.
P.S. Have a second choice written down (in case they’re out of what you want.)
E.g. 1x Double Cheeseburger OR 9x nuggets. 1x small fries. 1x medium coke OR medium sprite.
They won’t ask why if your voice gives up on you (they don’t know you don’t have laryngitis or some shit.) They won’t wonder about the list (they don’t know you’re not there ordering for someone else.)
This also works for sit-down meals.
Lots of love,

Thank you so much, you have no idea how hard it is to order sometimes, I will most definitely try this next time.
This also works for calling in orders. Which I should have done the last time I called in for pizza.
I had been using online ordering for pizza for quite some time. But I had a coupon that could only be redeemed by phone.
After a lengthy debate with myself (I used to call to order pizza, I can do it again), I placed the call.
I was greeted with demands for my name, phone number, and address.
Unprepared (no one expects the pizza inquisition), I panicked, hung up the phone, and ordered pizza online without using the coupon.
