9월12일 입이 트이는 영어 Late Food Delivery

Talk about a time when the food you ordered in was delivered late.

At my office, often we are strapped for time. When that happens, my co-workers and I order in lunch. We take it in turns to decide where to order from. One time, we ordered boxed meals. However, the restaurant was overwhelmed with orders. It took the better part of an hour for our food to arrive. By then, it was well past our lunchtime. We barely had time to eat. Last week, I ordered pizza at home. I waited and waited, but the pizza didn't arrive. I called the restaurant. They said the pizza was on its way. It took another 30 minutes to get our food. I had low blood sugar, and I was angry.
