Bossy customer makes waitress cry over a plate of sunny side up eggs, leaves $0 tip: 'She starts picking me apart like I'm a character flaw'

If you've ever worked in the service industry, you know how difficult certain customers can be. No matter how much you try to please them, some folks just want to watch the world burn. They don't care how hard you're working, they just woke up on the wrong side of the bed, and on the wrong side of the bed they will stay. It's difficult to tell whether these people were just born that way or life made a series of bad turns for them, and now they're making everyone else suffer. These types of horror shows exist, and the best you can do is just try not to let them affect you. 

But we're only human and we have emotions that are going to seep in no matter how hardened we are. We're all allowed to have little breakdowns every now and again, especially when they're justified.
