Problem : Sandwich Restaurant points
Consider the sandwich restaurant Which Wich. The process goes as follows:
A customer enters the restaurant and grabs the sandwich bag corresponding to the type of sandwich she wants chicken seafood, vegetarian, etc. She fills out the list of ingredients she wants marked on the bag and gives the sandwich bag to Adam who works at the cash register It takes a customer exactly seconds to finish all the above steps after shehe arrives to the restaurant.
Adam checks into the order and asks the customer what drink shehe wants, which takes seconds; accepts the customer's payment, which takes minute; and fills up the drink at the soda fountain for the customer, which takes seconds. Then Adam puts the sandwich bag on the "order rack" above the counter, which takes seconds.
The order on the sandwich bag is then read by Bob who picks the bread, adds the cheese and the meat and put the sandwich into a toaster oven. Altogether it takes Bob seconds to finish this step.
The sandwich stays in the oven for exactly minutes. The oven is small and can hold only one sandwich at a time.
Once the sandwich comes out of the oven, Bob the same Bob as in the above adds the rest of the ingredients to it mayonnaise vegetables, spices, etc. according to the order on the sandwich bag; then he takes the sandwich bag off the order rack, puts the sandwich in the bag and takes it to the customer. In total, it takes Bob minute to finish this step.
