Man Expresses Annoyance When His Wife Wants to Dine In at a Restaurant Just Minutes Before Close

If you've ever worked in the food service industry, you certainly know the pain of customers coming in right minutes before closing. While it's still technically appropriate and enforced by management, the last thing you want after an eight-and-a-half-hour shift is to stick around an extra hour for a couple of customers. If you've never worked in hospitality, it's understandable that you might not understand the common decency of the appropriate window of hours of operation. But my personal belief is that everyone should have to work a service job at some point in their life. It really generates empathy.

We've been presented with a perfect example of this lack of understanding in Reddit user /u/AppleBottmBeans's post to the /r/Mildlyinfuriating Subreddit. In a tale as old as time, this user's wife wanted to dine in at a pizza restaurant just minutes before the restaurant's closing. The user, seemingly afraid of his wife, gave in to her demands despite knowing the rule of thumb that you shouldn't show up the moment before hours of operation end. While he wasn't able to have a productive conversation with his partner, the user was more than willing to complain to the internet about his wife's lack of empathy for food workers.
