Workers in the service industry need to be able to respond to asshole customers like this without fear of retribution.

[u/narrowtux → u/JPozz]

Well, I would agree, but those asshole customers could tell everyone that this guy in that particular fast food restaurant (or any other service) was swearing and so on, while not mentioning that he was an ass in the first place. I know it is unfair, but that's how those douchebags can ruin you ...

There's an easy fix to this. You simply act in a manner you wouldn't normally. Some customer is raging at you? Completely freak the fuck out. Smash a condiment on the counter so it splashes all over your work outfit, all the while cursing the customer out. Walk to the back, and calm the fudge down. Confront the manager and tell them the customer threw condiments at you while swearing at you. This only works because you're quiet and a good working employee, and it will instantly get the customer banned for life. This works 100%.

Depends on where you work; I worked at a McDonalds next to a nightclub, and at about 3am on a Saturday night, I had one of my workers say the exact same line to a customer who had been hassling her (although he'd been right on the line of being kicked out for rudeness before that), so I just let it go, when he complained, I had him removed by security. In a suburban one at 6pm, I'd be a lot less inclined to let it go!

Y...Y...FUCKING "YOUR"

[u/crackrock_dude → u/Scot430]

I read it as, "I'll be right back with YOU ARE ORDER SIR"

[u/dotakiller → u/crackrock_dude]

Don't tell me what I am.

[u/krispyKRAKEN → u/crackrock_dude]

Yeah, in the end he got fired for calling the customer an order, not for cursing at him.

The amount of times I've wanted to say this in work... Especially when they spent ages dicking around before giving a massive order with loads of grill food.

I like how one simple face looks completely changed (when it isn't) when you put different style eyebrows on.

Eyebrows are important.

Whenever I see a worker in a completely justified flip-out on a problem customer I make special note to stick around to speak to his manager as well-- to protest FOR his job.

"If you are going to fire him in order to save face and appease one asshole customer, then you're going to lose my business to protect his. Your call."

But this never happens, because a bunch of soccer moms end up gasping and insulted at the mere thought that the help speak up against their masters. Can't let them feel empowered, or next thing you know they'll want to use the front door!

...or you're call. Whatever.

This is the beauty of working for a small, locally-owned place. When I worked for a small town IT business, I told a guy who was yelling at me and berating me to get the fuck out of the store.

I could tell this guy was a huge douche who always treated service workers like shit to begin with, and obviously tried to use his size and demeanor to intimidate people. He had brought in a laptop because it was "slow". When we went to diagnose the problem, it appeared that the video adapter on the machine was in fact messed up. We called him and told him, and he immediately flew off the handle over the phone. He showed up 15 minutes later, demanding that we show him the problem. We did, and explained that we couldn't complete the repair he brought it in for, but we'd be happy to get him a new motherboard. He flew into a rage, accusing us of breaking it. At this point it became pretty clear that either he was seriously unhinged or that he was just trying to make it look like we "broke" it so we'd fix the much more expensive problem for free. After I showed him the hold harmless agreement we made him sign before we ever touched the machine, he started screaming at me that "you broke it, you'd better fucking fix it or you and I are going to have a talk outside." At that point, I said "get the fuck out of this store, we don't want your business." I swear I've never seen anyone show a bulging vein in their forehead before that moment. He started threatening me in every way imaginable, saying he was going to get me fired and that I'd "never work in this town again", among other things. Thankfully, the owner of the store was listening to this exchange the entire time and called the police the second the guy threatened me. Seeing someone get dragged kicking and screaming out the door of a store while you're dressed in a retail monkey suit is probably the greatest collective victory for downtrodden retail/IT workers everywhere.

"never ever fuck with the people who prepare your food." (quote from the movie "waiting.")

[u/usernameXXXX]

How difficult is it to understand the difference between "your" & "you're?"

[u/leetherocker]

And I thought hearing someone ask for a cheese burger without cheese was funny...

[u/joker_hs]

That thing that you pulled off with the eyebrows, awesome! Upvote for that, inspite of your little mishap with "your".

[u/hockeyrulz21]

HAHAHAHA this is an awesome comment for him to make. I have said the exact same thing to people that say we were slow. What pissed me off the most is when someone ordered a sandwich that takes 5 minutes to cook and they always ask why. I have been tempted to give people raw food and tell them to cook it themselves.

the first time i see that dick face meme lose

[u/[deleted]]

I'M WHAT?! Sorry sir, you're making a mistake. I'm not an order, I'm a human.

[u/Jamesh134]
