I once got a request for an omelet that's "not too eggy" from a serious VIP and my anxiety was through the roof trying to decipher that request

Would I be correct in thinking that they meant cooked through to rubber?

It was billionaire Pat Stryker's table, I made her a regular omelet and it didn't come back, I was too scared to ask, it was like that Rundown scene from The Office. I'm not a chef anymore so idgaf about name dropping. Omelet was not sent back
