This is a plot point in an old manga series. I forget which one. Needless maybe?

It's really got the same vibe as constantly comparing someone to your ex.
I can imagine your service advisor smirking every time the customer complained and it brings me delight. Her and your manager make it sound like an amazing workplace.
Ah, another Joey user. It looks as though all 2-10 of us have moved to Lemmy. Incredible.
Accelerator already touched on the side dish/main dish concept being not really a thing for the most part. That being said it is important to note, that traditionally fried rice is basically a leftovers only dish. Like you wouldn't cook fried rice to cook fried rice. You'd cook fried rice because you had leftover steamed rice from the other night (and you'd use other leftover ingredients too). So, I suppose in a lot of those instances you'd only be eating fried rice, thus making it a main course by technicality (though it doesn't have to be).
