The dilemma of ordering an Egg McMuffin

Okay, this is really bugging me. If by some miracle of fate I happen to be awake in time to eat breakfast, I like to wander to McDonald's at the university here. I used to like getting bagel sandwiches, but for some reason they just don't have those anymore.

So, I order an Egg McMuffin. Now, for some reason, me ordering an Egg McMuffin somehow defaults to me wanting a Sausage McMuffin. This is not because I said anything involving the word "sausage" but it just seems to be what they order for me. On the big picture menu, there is an "Egg McMuffin" that has what I want, and there is a "Sausage McMuffin" that has what I don't want. Yet, by stating "Egg McMuffin" I get what I DON'T want.

Several times, the cashier has actually thrown a fit at me because "you ordered the Sausage McMuffin! Don't lie! I heard you order it!"

I hate sausage, yet this happens ALL the freakin' time.

Once, I thought of actually ordering a Sausage McMuffin just to throw them off, but I wasn't in the mood to eat a Big Mac that day.
