"What will ya have?" "Yeah give me a half pound of the turkey that's on special."

Perfectly appropriate conversation. It's a transactional conversation. Pleasantry are nice but the absence of them doesn't mean one is being rude.

Well the question was asked quite bluntly (I'm not going to call it rude, more err, direct, colloquial?)
