Anyone who goes out of their way to make someone working a customer service job that much more miserable, is really showing the rest of the world just how misplaced their moral compass is. It sounds like this dude was in dire need of a humbling reality check. Fortunately, a waiter was ready to give it to him. And more than once.

Okay M Years ago I worked at a busy, corporate sit-down burger restaurant. One day I'm hustling through the lunch rush and I have six college guys sit down. One guy flags me over and loudly pronounces that they're ready to order right away. "What are you guys having?" | ask.

    Organism - "Guys?" the same guy says with a smirk on his face. "Guys? That doesn't sound like a very professional greeting to me. I work at a restaurant too and if I walked up to a table and asked 'What are you guys having?' my manager would definitely let me know that was inappropriate." The other guys at the table look kind of uncomfortable at this exchange, and just silently sit there. The main guy looks around at all of them and keeps going.

At this point l'm looking around at my massive section of tables and getting the distinct feeling I'm going to be at this table forever. I'm trying not to lose my cool, so I smile. "Sure," I say. I take several steps back and walk up again. "Gentleman, how you all doing? Ready to order?" The main guy smirks and nods. I look directly at him.

    Font - "How about you, Chief? What are you having today?" Some of the other guys laugh. He looks angrily at me but orders his burger and a drink. I get everyone's order and hustle off. I return with drinks a little while later. I set everyone's drinks down and do the main guy last. "Here you go, Boss." I leave before he can say anything. Through the course of their mealI call him a different nickname every time.

    Font - "Make sure to leave me one signed copy, Muchacho." So by this time this guy is boiling. His friends are loving it though. As time has gone on, the rest of them keep looking at me expectantly. What nickname next? Finally, they all get up to leave. Lunch rush has ended and I'm chilling at this point. I casually walk up to them. "Thank you gentlemen for coming in." The rest of the group is smiling. I look at the main guy. "And you...you have a fantastic day...Hoss."

    Font - The rest of the guys cheer. They all head out. I grab all their receipts on the table. Surprise, surprise, the main guy left me zero for a tip. I didn't care. It was all worth it. 7 6.7k 202 ↑, Share
