cheeseburger, no bun

that's what I was told at the deli today. initially befuddled, and before i could inquire, i was asked to select a secondary cheeseburger delivery platform bread-wise. my consternation was evidently apparent as a manager was quickly summoned to explain. conventional buns had been sold out, she said. there was a supply glitch. nobody's fault. just a sequence of unfortunate events. 
i requested an accommodation. a discount, so to speak. my request was circumvented. i was presented with a cheeseburger on buttered, grilled sourdough. it looked tasty. it was. with fresh lettuce and tomato. i'll probably order it that way again. not soon. they must be punished for not being more clever.
