“Sometimes they don’t come in for food, they just come in to fuck shit up” That’s literally the most accurate description of fast food customers known to man
If anybody works at a fast food restaurant, fight back! No one deserves to be treated like shit. Draw blood, teach them a lesson. Make sure they think twice before acting like a fuckin animal.
@@nocheExplorer Tbh agreed. After a couple years in fastfood, I went from Spongebob to A squidward real fast. Customers are Soul suckers. Gotta put them in their place
@@phataldestroyer unfortunately it’s common enough that a fast food worker will get irritated with me and have an attitude because I called the taco bell vanilla mango drink a mango whip drink bc in the moment i forgot what it’s called and i don’t have good eyesight so i can’t check to see what it is called without my glasses which were at home. i always make sure my tone is nice and say please and thank you multiple times. i feel bad for fast food workers that have to deal with miserable people probably every shift.
@@yea0000 I'm miserable towards customers(that suck ass), With coworkers... lol I'm still the sponge(unless my coworkers an asshole). I'm never disrespectful towards kind strangers. I think that's the key difference here. You're minding your own and people are harassing you, that's horrible fuck those people. Same mindset here with shit customers. If your nice, you get the utmost service. Atleast that's how it should be. If someones harassing strangers at their job, that's some Psycho shit. That harasser is gunna get treated how they should. Food along the garbage rim, patty on the floor, a real dirt sandwich.
I am the assistant manager of a local fast food restaurant, and I always inform all my new employees first thing upon hiring them that if a customer ever becomes irate in a way that makes them fearful, or if I ever tell them to, they are to immediately drop whatever it is that they are doing, leave the front line and go to the office in the back of the restaurant and stay there until I come back and say they can return to work. These are just kids, and their safety is my number one priority.
Worked with a girl at a Chik Fil A where she held the door for a homeless man and said “have a wonderful day sir,” and he turned around and slapped her in the face. She was also really well known for paying for homeless people’s meals. We know he was homeless because he lived in a parking lot across the street.
The worst part is that usually, teenagers usually take the brunt of these arguments and near-assaults. I remember quitting my job at Wendy's after a customer walked inside with 3 visible firearms on his waist asking us why we didn't have his Baconator ready and why he shouldn't shoot the store up. It's near inducing trauma that no one, especially teenagers, should ever have to deal with.
@@mattsepan6274 bro when i worked at Whataburger this karen ass lady literally called me the n word, hard r, because she got PICKLES on her burger. i did not make the burger. i did take the order, and even on the receipt it said 'no pickles' but no
@@mattsepan6274 yes, instead he should have used his side hustle organ and fish trading business to sabotage the teenagers secret evil corporate world takeover sceme.
I worked at gas station McDonald's for a year. My top 3 stories: - an employee stole a little over 10k chicken nuggets from us and dipped -twice the same guy went through the drive through butt ass naked, smoking -my coworkers were held at gun point for the cash in the register (which was $52) lmfao edit/update: the guy wasnt caught for the nuggets, but there was a sign in the breakroom saying 10k nuggets were missing with the GMs number. im pretty sure it did come out to be like 20-25 missing boxes of them and to why we had so much, its next to a school, and in the city
When I worked for Wendy’s for 10 years (15-25 years old), I carried pepper spray. I sprayed 3 people in all that time who I thought were becoming a threat to me. 2 came over the counter, and 1 came running up on me in the parking lot. But ALL 3 of them went down crying like literal babies each and every time. There’s nothing that will cool a person off quicker than to be blessed with the hot sauce. Don’t cheap out on this. Get the best kind you can.. one that sprays liquid, NOT the gel, and has a wide spray angle. Complaints were made about ME when I defended myself, but I never lost my job, and I never got charged by the police. In fact, I was applauded by police. In most states, spraying someone who is verbally assaulting you and trying to close space on you is totally legal and fine. Use it. It’s the BEST tool for situations that don’t involve firearms or other deadly weapons. Please be sure to check your state laws, as your state may vary.
@@themachoechidnaugandarandy7583 Shut up Fed, no the nation doesn't and it's not worth the legal (and moral) troubles to shoot unless there is a clear threat to your life (i.e. knife, gun, any other kind of weapon). Carry at least pepper spray or both, most people just need a dose of liquid humble.
I used to be a manager at Pizza Hut, and that was the most mentally draining job that I have ever had. I had my share of crazy customers, but the worst was a woman who exploited our remake policy to constantly get free food from us. She would place an order, wait for it to arrive, and then find more flaws in than than the health inspector could find. After which, she would demand a refund. And this didn’t just happen once a month, this happened nearly every day of the week. It happened so much that me and the other employees started taking pictures of her order before we gave it to her, just to prove that she was full of s**t and that she wasn’t getting bad food every time she ordered. This went on until my boss finally confronted her. He went to her house, dressed as a delivery driver and called her out about all her complaints and the quality of the food she received. She tried to complain about the food he delivered to her, but he was able to shut her down about everything.
When I worked at Domino's, there was a lady who would repeatedly claim her contactless delivery never arrived, and when we stopped doing that, she would refuse to answer the door and get mad if the driver didn't leave the pizza at the door.
I've dealt with 3 cop level events when I worked at McDonald's. The most notable was when a customer came in, demanded his sandwich not be made by that * racist word* and got into a fight with the 300 pound manager and sandwich maker. It took the police 34 minutes to arrive. 34 minutes and the station was less than a mile away
I was having break when my manager called me over to sit with her(I was near the troublemakers), she was on her break as well and she's on the phone with security. We had a group of boys mess with our cameras I think I can't remember but they've done it 3 times after my manager telling them to get out. I don't think security ever actually came💀 and when I was at orientation I was told we would have a lot of security since we're in a crummy area but I guess not.
I worked at a Panera Bread. What made it so bad is that during the pandemic everyone was ordering online with very specific customizations. It was to the point where people would literally get a cheaper sandwitch and modify it into entirely other sandwitches to hack the system. Everything was entirely catered to customers to a degree that had never been done before. And so people started going back into society, and demanded the comfort of their own home from us in the middle of a rush with 50 different modifications to every order because that was the expectation during the pandemic. I remember this lady ordered a baja bowl with every ingredient in individual cups on the side during peak hours. Wouldn't dream of giving a tip either. And when we don't have the resources to provide this attention or comfort (rationally speaking, we never did) parents threw tantrums so bad that their kids were apologizing for them. And then on top of that, our managers were sexually harassing us and they were always quick to let us know that HR exists to protect the company and not us.
Sadly I see this shit everyday not as a worker but as the customer it's why I try and crack jokes and be polite to them and keep my order simple cause I've been in that position and getting upset or being a twat about it doesn't solve anything
THISSS. Beginning I got a job at a bbq place now I'm working at a gas station. oh my gosh okra wasn't crispy enough they meant they wanted it burnt (actually). asking for their meat to be more tender even though most of those meats were put on a smoking pit for 12 hours over the night. There's a 42 year old man that tried to fight me and a mom that called a 16y/o cashier incompetent cuz she didn't know what was in the potato salad
@@jamesprice2163 I that I just want to say that I have no problem with 95+% of customers. I mean customers are human beings and most people don't want trouble especially if they can avoid it, but you start doing the numbers on the fact that you are just dealing with the food of up to 200+ people, and even if 95% of customers are great, we are still talking about potentially still 3 or 4 hellish customers a day. The math was never going to be kind to us, and I suppose that that is tragic. I do appreciate you. I apprecaite the park ranger that loved lemonade and gushing about her homelife. I mean during the pademic I sewed myself a minion mask because the kids would rush in and point at it and get all excited because they recognized the minions. Even in the comment that I'm kind of surprised blew up, I pointed out that I could deal with a shitty customer or two, but the management did me in. I'm male, but I'm very small, and I get misgendered a lot. I was constantly refered to as a twink which I could live with, but I had a manager literally talk about how he fantasized about raping me which I couldn't live with. I got constantly harassed, and literally assualted at one point. I was vocal about it, but no one cared. I could deal with the customers, but for my own physical and mental well being, I had to leave what was a severely abusive workplace. And I left people behind there, and it sucks.
Panera Bread mentally, physically, and emotionally eroded me to the point where I was thinking about killing myself by the end of every shift. When I finally had the means to leave that job I felt so much better. It was like the dark cloud that hung over me for 2 years finally dissipated.
im 17, and ive worked at a panera bread for around a year and a half. i just would like to say, the ammount of items with more than 15-20 modifications is astounding. also, the ammount of people who think its a nice sit down restaurant. my coworkers have been flagged down to tables because the customers thought they where waiters.
I was a security guard at a mall for a year and this was a weekly occurrence. The amount of recurring villains we had made it feel like an episodic cartoon. There was the schizophrenic lady that pushes a stroller with a baby doll and bottle of whiskey, the old Mexican guys that regularly harassed women then pretend they don’t speak English, the lady throwing pickle jars at the Big Lots and screaming rape, the local Hells Angels chapter VP threatening us because we wouldn’t let him sell chocolates to raise funds for his church, the teenagers, the moth man, the schizophrenic man who would point out “crimes” to help us out (he genuinely thought he was helping but the person he described usually didn’t exist) until he went rogue and beat another homeless man with a chair in the food court, and the crippled homeless man that liked to instigate people (it became a fight two times, first time he was beaten with his own forearm cane and the second time with a chair) I think it has more to do with how shitty that city and mall are than anything though
I worked in fast food when I was younger, had jobs in the oil field and worked in the trades for quite some time now... Fast food was hands down the hardest/ most stressful job I've ever had. I will never go back to the service industry.
I worked at McDonald’s 2 years ago. Never again. Underpaid overworked and abused by the most lowest form of humans to ever exist. I have more respect to people who work fast food than anything else
I work in retail, which is awful on its own, but adding the element of food just makes people so much worse and I can respect those that are able to do it without crying because I know I would the minute someone started screaming at me like this.
Maybe there wouldn‘t be that many „buffoons and hooligans“, as you call them, if America wouldn‘t let their people rot in the streets as soon as they loose their job
I especially love how he stepped in her way as she was getting closer to his employee filming, maybe he just didnt want her to run in the back, but hey, at least it looked protective.
everyone likes to shame fast food workers or set them up as "jobs people shouldn't get" when in reality people who do fast food simply are trying to do their job like everyone else and serve others their meals. They're humans like everyone else yet people treat them like they're lifeless robots who have no emotions. big respect for those who work in fast food man.
the people who work fast food are those who can't get a job anywhere else. the only people at my job are high school students, immigrants, and the impoverished. the idea that we are worth less than anyone else simply because we are trying to get a job is stupid.
@@placeholdername3521 Well yeah. Fast food is one of those jobs you need to have in order to progress in society. I worked in fast food and retail for 6 years during high school and college so I could pay for my engineering degree. Do you know how hard it is to get an engineering degree and work 24 hours on the weekends!! Yeah I had to take 12 hour shifts to afford my college payments. And you can bet that there were assholes born with a silver spoon who freaked out that someone got their food before them. Even though that person ordered before them!!! I had to call the cops one time because a guy threatened to stab one of the workers he was talking to because we were understaffed and he had been waiting for 20 minutes. I’m soooo sorry that 4 PEOPLE couldn’t keep up with 50 customers orders all coming in in the span of 5 minutes.
@@placeholdername3521 If your only skill set is taking orders at McDonald's, you really don't need to be getting paid a lot. You can be replaced in a matter of hours. A stressful job is not the same thing as a difficult job.
🎶 I saw a dog..the dog was brown... I saw a tree..the tree was green...AY YO LAPAPAPAPAPA BOW-WOW WAAAAAAA🎶 That's just a demo of the lyrics oh yeah I'm going to make it big
i worked at a popeyes when i was 15 and the sheer amount of men that would threaten me and women that would scream at me was terrifying. eventually i just got in the habit of skirting around the counter to get my manager who liked to cuss out customers for verbally abusing young employees. and this was pre-pandemic in like 2017.
the fact that almost everyone in the comments has a personal experience being on the receiving end of these fast food fights is genuinely concerning. why are people so awful
western capitalistic culture doesn't really held high on the people below the food chain. everything from the fact that US is build on slavery of blacks and south americans and the genocide of the native americans speaks all about the culture.
As someone who worked at Dairy Queen this is hard to watch, the lady I worked with who did cakes would take hours to make sure someone’s cake was perfectly ready for them and seeing her throw it on the floor is just absolutely disgusting behavior.
I would not be able to sit and watch or argue with someone if they were to throw a cake i worked hard on onto the floor. Hands, legs, arms, feet, elbows and knees will be thrown if my cake is ruined.
Oh my gosh, absolutely. I used to work at a local custard shop and I was actually responsible for making most of the full-sized cakes there. It was often a crunch to make sure that each cake I made looked lovely and was perfectly on time, but I always made it work. If someone threw a cake I made there... I would be absolutely livid!! :(
“The police are coming” are a safety measure for the workers. Why would the management want to keep her there and put their employees in danger? It’s a way to scare them
I feel like there might be a way to solve such dangers such as making her a simple meal and not telling her the police is coming so that way. She calms down and police boxes her in to where the workers show the video of what happened and she pays up for all damages
they dont want liability. I worked at a middle school for 2 years and a summer. We were told never to call the police cause the higher ups would get in trouble. Thankfuly we never HAD to but one time a kid was up on the school roof smoking weed. My coworker was able to talk him down.
i can say one thing good about working in fast food as a first job is that reallyy gives you a backbone. when i first started never stood up for myself…noww oh boy
Fast food didn't break me, but being a cashier did. My boss always said how calm and collected I was. No, I was just good at controlling my actions. The number of times I wanted to deliver a nice helping of whoopass was more than I care to admit. Luckily, nobody pushed me that far. My large build and serial killer stare that was refined over a decade in customer service probably scared people. One dude tried to push me but quickly left for some reason.
This is why everywhere I go I am especially nice to everyone in the retail industries, whether its food or just checking out at the grocery store. The fact that people are shocked when you just say "thank you" or "how are you today?", which should be common courtesy, is absolutely insane. The amount of self entitled people and rude people in our society today goes to show that alot of parents did not do their job.
i mostly made good experiences with customers, weird meltdowns or angry yelling are very rare cases. could probably count them on one hand over a period of 2 years working in service industry. and I certainly never experienced something even remotely close to this.
Same, for me, when there's a mistake, if it's on my behalf, I just apologize and if possible I joke about it, if they did it, I just say "no problem, that happens, don't worry" and if possible I'll joke about it too, some people that work in retail might've had a bad day, either because some personal problem or shitty client, so bringing laughter to them can change their day
When i get mad at checkout (usually just at walmart) its never directed at the employees. Aint there fault my card dont work right, and the keypads making me insert 20 times before letting me swipe.
Ex fast food employee. At this point they should definitely unionize. 😂 They don’t get any kind of benefits or sick days or pto or ANYTHING. And the stuff we had to put up with every day was ridiculous! My favorite line was when someone said how easy my job was and that I don’t get to complain.
I haven’t worked as a fast food worker but you can’t mock someone’s work without knowing it, I bet whoever said to you “your job is easy” was some shit that lives off their parents
I worked in fast food for three years and I could go on for days about the customers being insane, but by far the one that stands out to me the most was the Large Coke incident. It was a standard chaotic Friday afternoon. We were all exhausted from the current lunch rush, but it was payday, and the cars were beginning to slow down. It was mid-pandemic, so it seemed that every single person in the entire town was here to order way too many burgers, and scream at their children and spouses when they think we can't hear them through the speaker. Lunch rush was slowing down, coming to a gentle stream of cars. A lady pulls up to the speaker. The ding that is responsible for my slight hearing loss rings out. Now, I wish I could remember what else this lovely loutish lady ordered, but such knowledge is forbidden by the gods. Her order was a holy one, not for one so low as myself. She wanted her order, and she wanted it exactly how she ordered it. All my feeble, mortal mind can remember is that she ordered a medium Coke, and a lot of food. My coworker, my poor innocent coworker, took her order. We make her food, striving to make it fast enough so that the constant glaring timer doesnt turn red and remind us all of how much we are all failures because we don't have 27 arms, therefore making the ever-important and ever-impatient customer wait an extra two minutes for a fresh patty. Anyways, the lady pulls forward in her run-down silver Hummer H2. I thought she had a very silent passenger with her in the car, but when I went to get her payment, I made eye contact with the most insurmountable amount of trash I had ever seen in my life. I saw our wrappers, mixed in with other fast-food logos. I gasped inaudibly. She was an epicure; only eating the finest of delicacies. You and I might've called it garbage. But she was more enlightened than we. I took her card, having no idea what was about to unfold. The next few minutes seemed to simutaniously race by and slow to a halt at the same time. My coworker hands her the food. I hand her card back. I turn around and I see it. Slow motion, my coworker is walking to the window, a large Coke in his hands. I think to myself, "Well, that's not right, she ordered a medium." But, I know that if I, an unenlightened fool, were given a bigger drink than I had asked for, I would be ecstatic. So I didn't say a word. I thought, "Oh, she's going to be so excited." He hands her the drink, then closes. the window. The next few seconds were the calm before the storm. We were cleaning, mentally preparing for the next customers, and also sweating profusely because the AC was broken (as it had been for weeks) and it was about 110% inside. We hear pounding on the drive-thru window. We turn, not unfamiliar to this sound, but cautious because it always meant someone wanted to scream at us. We were surprised to see the lady that we had just served, and my coworker opens up the window yet again, only to be met with a barrage of yelling. Attempts to figure out what she wanted were futile at first, but she finally made her point clear. She ordered a medium Coke, not a large. She wanted a full refund. We said, "ma'am, we're so sorry, but we can't refund, you got everything you ordered, and a free extra drink. We can give you a medium soda, or a coupon, but you can't get a refund." She kept insisting and yelling, and eventually our team manager came over and told her the same thing. She did a burn out in our drive thru. (Thinking that it would offend us I guess? I suppose I can't be expected to understand her motives, she was far more intellectual than I) Over getting a large Coke as opposed to a medium. Not even Jesus Christ himself would have the ability to withstand the constant barrage of mental abuse that fast food service workers deal with on the regular. Always remember to be polite. The workers actually care a lot about the quality of food they give out, its corporate that enforces food to be shitty because they care about wait times more than they care about actually making good food.
Reminds me of this one time a lady reported me to my manager all because I had mistakingly forgotten to give her her soda cup. I also had this other homeless guy freak out and cancel his whole like 15$ order just because he couldn't get the shamrock shake in October. Good times those were... good times
I told some boomer he could save 2$ by ordering a larger size and he screamed at me he didn’t want that and asking me if he stuttered. Anyone that has worked with the public is fully aware just how low IQ the average human is.
Honestly I saw the shit really hit the fan once COVID hit with the customers. Been working at the same McDonald's as an Assistant Manager (worked my way up from crew) and have been there for 7 years. It is absolutely shocking and appalling the way that some of the customers act and the things that I have seen at work. I do love my job for the nice people that are coming through every day, but I got to say the bad ones have increased in numbers greatly.
Damn, sorry to hear that dude. Has it been a steady increase in bad customer behavior? I wonder why that is. Like do you notice correlation with Covid/lockdown trends, inflation, etc?
@@AD-lh3jk You haven't noticed? Ever since COVID, no one knows how to act. On the regular, people are rude as shit, on the roads everyone goes like 20 miles above the speed limit, I guess because of how COVID mentally affected them to not care about their life or others, more shootings and stabbings, life has been terrible in general recently, all because of COVID.
People have become a lot angrier and bitter, especially since Covid. It's become a pandemic in itself. It's pretty sad because it's a deep-rooted issue within society, yet people continue the vicious cycle
i FELT THIS. i personally work at a whataburger in texas for 3yrs now and im in management and i honestly love the job. does it get a little hectic? yes. have i been held at gunpoint over a shake bc the machine was being cleaned? yeah. but these experiences (at least for me) are few and far between and lowkey everyone except for the chosen few disciples of fast food junkies and entitled fucks that think that they are more important than others. people are pretty considerate but it does get to a point where there really shouldnt be any lashing out over mustard or something. you have a problem? be an adult and be civil for the love of god XD since covid started its definitely gotten worse and since im an adult i dont get as much shit as i did when i was a teenager team member, but when i do get shit its heavy XD
@@AD-lh3jk I typically call it "covid madness". It's a accumulation of trauma from the pandemic, the stress it has place on communities, division in beliefs for health precautions such as masking and vaccination, and ongoing uncertainties for our way of life. As well, some of these people may have lost family or friends to the pandemic - socially and through fatalities. This sort of mental strain does take a toll. There is a more essential criteria to factor in, and that is due to covids nature - as a vascular disease - it is possible it has altered the psychological aspects of some people who have repeatedly contracted covid. Covid is hard on the immune system and especially the vascular system, the capillaries especially in the brain as well as soft tissue in major organs. We sometimes see this sort of behavior in those suffering extreme psychosis, usually with mental degradation, possibly caused by impaired health due to multiple covid infections. It can kind of be compared to rabies, though realistically rabies does not make people "lunge or bite" like zombies. Rabies is a neurotypical disease, which causes shut down in the neuro pathways in the body, causes fits and seizures, sensitivity to sounds and especially light, or movement - hence why sometimes those who are dying from rabies, or animals especially, will lash out and bite. The person or animal is not aggressive persay, they are merely wounded, dying, and scared. The covid virus may be having similar affects on those people, making them more aggressive, short of temper, sensitive to slight variations in their environment, and downright unpleasant (if they weren't masking in the first place out of decency, then they were intolerable to begin with). Though I typically lay blame of these public freakouts, with the stress of the overall pandemic. However, I tentatively bear in mind that covid as a viral pathogen geared to infecting the vascular system, and the destruction it commits on essential capillaries in the brain, that this contagion may be having a more adverse affect on the individuals who huff it weekly. If it causes brainfog and other mental struggles for some, it isn't that hard to believe
@fours04 🇬🇧 fr Reddit banned videos of anyone black portrayed in a bad light and that was literally the week "Karen" videos mysteriously shot up in popularity. The vast majority of public chimp-outs are related to blacks, but you won't see them because they're taken down from most websites unless the aggressor is white.
Not only does Dairy Queen serve full cakes, I believe they make custom cakes for people who want one. So some poor soul poured their heart out baking that for someone, only for a drug addict to ruin it. There's not much worse than a chefs/bakers food being destroyed for no reason.
I worked at Dairy Queen, and they are ice cream cakes so no baking required (unless something has changed recently) but we do assemble and decorate them. Regardless I definitely agree with you!! And cleaning up ice cream sucks!
I’m going to try to use the phrase “Meth and Dairy Queen go together like peanut butter and jelly” in as many casual conversations as I possibly can over the next week
This reminds me of when I went to a Wendy's and ordered spicy chicken nuggets, the look of fear in the workers eyes as they told me it would be 15 minute wait was...weird too me at the time. But now I understand. In case anyone is wondering I just said that it was fine and read fanfiction on my phone while my nuggz were being made, it ain't hard to just wait lol.
Yeah, even as an impatient person I'm not gonna fucking run up and yell or even trash a restaurant like an absolute buffoon, because my burger is taking 15 minutes longer than usual. Like, just sit your ass down and *wait.*
Forreal and all someone has to do is order something else or go somewhere else if they don't want to wait. I remember occasions of a fast food employee being timid about telling me how they didn't have something available at that time. Definitely been deplorables before me making a big scene about it smh.
@@ItsJustSebIf it's taking 15 minutes for a cheeseburger at a fast food place, I'll take that as a sign that they're putting a lot of love into it lmao 😂
Working in retail/food service since I was 16 has given me a genuine hatred for the general public, and I don't feel bad for that one bit. There are some sickening, rude, entitled ass people that will treat you like less than a human just because you work there. Even the nicest looking people can end up being the biggest scumbags. This has also given me a HUGE appreciation for people who treat me kindly at work, however.
@@dickbubble5846 What an immature asshole lol. I mean damn if he was that worried about a quarter he probably had bigger things to worry about than buying a drink lol.
I worked retail/food service where we had a decent amount of samples and the main nearly only joy I got was hooking the genuinely nice people TF up with free bonus treats on the way out. Regulars and folks you could just tell were decent folks, especially if they had kids in tow. I'd also hook the kids up with mini tours of production if we were slow. That was great. And wasn't tip department, we weren't allowed to take tips, but there was a jar for the local food bank which... Coworkers had to use. Don't miss the effing management there. Miss the good folks, coworkers and customers. Even if you're not just being a decent human being (and like. Do that.) I've gotten so much incidental awesome just by being one even before working that job. And much less stress than being a jerk. Although I never expect to get free or discount or off menu bonuses, maybe that's why I do, idk.
Tell me about it. The year and a half I worked cashier through the pandemic in a store that was the only one enforcing mask policy in an area that’s far more red than blue and let me tell you. There’s nothing quite like having your life actively threatened on a daily basis by either a man who either has less teeth than he does braincells, weighs a good 200-300 pounds more than you, is covered in so much camo you’d think they’re trying to hunt deer in a grocery store or a combination of the three. I think my heart and my patience for intolerable idiots and Karens grew three sizes smaller that year.
@@rynemcgriffin1752 my ex worked as essential cashier early pandemic days and more power to all y'all for not flipping out on jerks, idk how you don't. He works at a small local focused food place that has menu of cooked items but also fridge/frozen/fresh/pantry to go (classified as a grocery officially so they didn't get shut down 🤷♀️) They had a pre-existing window that used to be for calling out eating on site (picnic tables) folks. COVID they used it for pickup orders. One jackass who refused to mask also refused to get his order through the window. Like, what the HELL is the difference, you get your food just don't step literally three feet inside the enclosed space with workers who want to stay safe. I just can't.
I've worked in fast food for nearly 8 years, same location. From crew to shift lead. I've had things thrown at me, I've been screamed at, swung at, insulted. I've been stalked, harassed, and dealt with attempted break ins. Nothing is more horrifying than cleaning after close and hearing someone outside furiously rattling the drive thru window.
I worked at a five guys for so many years and never had any problems, until we started doing deliveroo. Some restaurants in area had been getting held up and because of that, we had a strict no biker helmet policy in our restaurant. Most the the riders where fine with that rule, but every so often we would get one refusing to take it off and would then get violent. Also their bikes regularly got stolen when riders where inside collecting orders.
Working in a McDonald's out in a county area, it's insane how different the customers are there compared to in my local towns and cities. All we get are nice old people who just wanna sit and drink a coffee with their buds. meanwhile everywhere else each employee is specifically trained to know lockdown procedures, and they happen quite often. I feel incredibly lucky, honestly. a salute to my city working counterparts o7
You know the weird thing is i have worked in a fastfood place in Europe (the netherlands to be specific) ive worked there for 23 years now and started working on upper manegment about 7 years ago (i still work behind the counter sometimes) and i have seen 4 problems in my entire time working there and these "problems" lasted 2 minutes and it was a karen that we simply kicked out ive worked on about 11 locations Total in my years and ive only seen 4 problems and None had weapons or danger involved in swear you Americans need to ban guns and shit
@@marvik7437 It's just a culture thing. The entire Netherlands is pretty homogenous and the size of maybe 2 American states, and every American state has it's own culture like a country. This shit doesn't happen in the places where the culture is super pro gun, it happens in cities and coastal states. The real issue is more meth than anything else. This shit happened in Montana, odds are some cowboy would march this tweaker outside at gunpoint for ruining his retirement cake. Gun issues only happen in the parts of the US that try hardest to be like Europe. The rest of us enjoy the fact that our government is too afraid of another Ruby Ridge to fuck with us in our own homes over most needless bullshit.
My literal second week working at Subway I had to call the cops on a homeless guy because he was tweeting at the register, like he was AFK or something, and wouldn’t pay for his sub. Usually I wouldn’t call the cops but he was just standing there and wouldn’t leave, making us all uncomfortable, so my manager told me to call the police. Weirdest shit I have ever seen.
My work place had it but only one button and we had multiple counters so it was pointless to even try and walk over there to press it since someone that worked there wouldn’t shut up about it and everyone knows there is one there

After leaving fast food and realise humans can be nice and respectful is such a weird experience. I’ve only ever encountered that level of horrible treatment over cheap food. Humans are wild.
I was at Pizza Hut with my dad yesterday and I was in the car but he was telling us about a lady who flipped out because the place was really busy. She got so mad over like 1-2 pizzas not being done while they were slammed with orders. It made no sense
Her leaving before the cops come is the best case scenario. They have the footage. She still gets charged and the workers don’t have to deal with her for longer than necessary
No you have no idea what you are talking about. That is “a waste of police resources.” Been told that line way too many times. Unless they come and actually witness the scene, the cops won’t do shit. I once had a guy assault a customer, try to assault me, then threaten to shoot up the place. He was a regular so I knew his name and where he worked. Have the cops the footage. They said there was nothing they could do.
My teenage sister just got her first job at a restaurant. Imagine being so entitled and out of touch with reality that an adult could be this mad at a kid you don’t know.
She called him a Goof, which if you are unfamiliar with jail insults, has an alternate meaning other than simply "a goofy person".. It means someone is all of the lowest, bottom of the barrel, most pit-trash despicable lowlife soulless waste of skin space and oxygen. It means 1. they do horrible things to vulnerable people unable to fight off them, like kids.... it also 2. means they steal from their friends, snitch on them, and throw them under the bus any way they possibly can to benefit themselves.. I think someone who say, steals from his grandparents, could be considered a goof, in my books, someone who beats their dog is a goof, someone who beats their wife, also a goof.. An alternative word is mutt.. If someone in prison, say says this to you, you are pretty much obligated to smash that word right outt of their mouth, until Rule 1. they are dead and no longer moving or Rule 2. get the hint that you are NOT, and decide to stop calling you this.. If this fails, refer to rule 1.
I do think people that start fights at fast food joints should be sent to directly to prison.. no jail, no judge. go to a bar and get in a drunken fight, settle a score on the streetz but if you fight at a fast food joint because of something that has do with your food then you better prepare for Alcatraz direct trip
I served four years in the US Military. I have more respect for those in food service than those in the armed service. You really do see the worst of humanity.
Thank you for your service. I have friends that work in fast food places like McDonalds, and I honestly hope that they get the better end of the stick, but tbh, that might just be wishful thinking..
As a Subway worker, the worst I've experienced is one of my coworkers got involved in bad stuff, and three 6'3-6'4 built guys came in and stared him down and he didn't ring up the order. That was pretty terrifying
I've worked 5 years in retail, in an extremely methy area. Here's some of the crazy things I have experienced: Man high on meth punched a 12 year old girl in the face. The customers basically barricaded him in the store with us until the cops showed up. Shit was intense. Dude was walking around the store screaming "I'M SCHIZOPHRENIC!". Cops eventually showed up and tased the dude, he shrugged it off. they tackled him and he busted the side of his head open on our ice cream cooler, blood was everywhere. Guess who had to mop it up? A woman stumbled up to me while i was smoking a cigarette outside of the store. She was covered in blood. Screamed she was dying. I immediately called 911 Apparently her boyfriend had stabbed her something like 7 times, dude thought he stole drugs from her or something. she came back a few weeks later and thanked me. She gave me a cute handwritten note. I still keep it. Anyway, what i'm trying to say is the service industry is fucked. We don't get paid enough. and we've all seen some shit. Cut us some fuckin' slack.
This is why "The customer is always right" needs to be tossed in the incinerator, it's every form of wrong imaginable. The real saying should always be "The customer knows what they want within reason", extra emphasis on the last two words.
I work in Healthcare. The same applies there. Management has that "customer is always right" mentality. We get shit tons of Karen's and Chad's who think Healthcare facilities are restaurants and resorts. Family members dictating staffing because they don't "like" a certain staff member for whatever reason. Ppl trying to make up for their failures in parenting/sibling/spouse by complaining all the time.
Really? So when I order a cheeseburger with "only cheese" it's supposed to come with all the normal toppings on it? When I order that way, I'm being "every form of wrong imaginable"? You actually think that? I couldn't possibly be right, obviously. Yes, I actually had that happen at a Chili's and the waiter had the gall to give me an entire lecture about I ordered it wrong and how I needed to say "plain." I wasn't ordering it wrong. I have used "plain" before and too much of the time they do the exact thing I want to avoid: all the usual toppings. The employees are every bit as bad as the customers. The only difference is the customer has almost nothing to lose.
Yes, really. Asking a burger with only cheese is not outside of reason. From the perspective you are speaking from the manager was wrong to speak to you in that manner. The behaviour in this video however is unexcusable. So if you ever behaved like that to minimum wage workers you are always in the wrong.
I’m glad someone is realizing this, I’ve worked in the fast food industry a long time. I actually got robbed at work last night. I’ve seen some of the absolute craziest shit I have so many stories. It feels really good to hear that someone understands how much the job can suck.
man that sucks... a few weeks ago a fistfight started because i took one guys order before the other. they were the only customers in the restaurant. luckily i wasn't targeted but that was some of the most irrational stuff i've seen
@@narwhalocean791 yeah dude people are actually crazy. Today people have been so rude. Like sorry it’s a Friday and I’m here open-close by myself. What do you want me to do?
@@dakotasikorski-td7ms My god the stuff I have heard from fast food workers is just insane. Working in the fast food industry seems to be more dangerous than fighting in an active war zone. I have a lot of respect for people working in these restaurants.
@eric Spencer The same reason you're supposed to worship veterans as if they're ALL wonderful great people. Before anyone cries, I'm a veteran as is my oldest son. I have nothing against veterans as people, it's just that the conservative political world thinks you are supposed to worship policemen and military veterans as if they're never wrong because they want to be able to USE them at their whim.
@@albinofroggy It may sound like that to you, but it's what I've encountered through experience. You would see it if you served in the military or worked in law enforcement. I've done both. They teach you to never question authority because you are to follow a chain of command, so as long as you do what you're told, you have plausible deniability, but if you don't, you're branded as a traitor or insubordinate. There's also a strict hidden code where you don't rat out your fellow soldier or officer, you just turn a blind eye. That's very apparent and easy to see every day on TH-cam, twitter or wherever you see your daily dose of human interaction with police. You can clearly see the "Back the Blue" movement which is mostly self proclaimed "Christian Conservatives" who worship authority, and claim to despise big government yet don't see the irony of wanting more police and a bigger military. It's definitely not an unfounded conspiracy theory. It's a reality.
@@Pepespizzeria1 My best friend was a cook in the military, as well as a tuba player in the Marine Corp band. When people thank him for his service, he doesn't hold back. He tells them to thank a teacher for their service because I (he) only served 4 years but teachers serve decades. I love my country, but I love the human race more. Most people want to live their life in peace, and raise their family or just enjoy life, but there are people out there who are so miserable that the only satisfaction they get is by statuses. When old people who don't like each other or simply want more power, they send young people who don't know each other out to kill each other to satisfy their lust for power.
lmao, I'm a manager at a fast food spot and it's,, the sheer amount of teens and young adults I've had to take aside while they were having a breakdown over how customers were treating them is absolutely wild to me people really do suck, man
one thing i noticed as a manager is you pretty much need to become a therapist cause of it. Like some kids lives alr suck, and fucking Brenda out there yelling cause she got 3 pickles instead of 2 at them isn't definitely not helping
@@LycanKai14 you do but if they cry to corporate somehow you get in trouble, I never gave af though and always just told people they can stop yelling or leave, 99 percent of the time they calm down
only in fcking america this will happen. ive worked in our local fastfood chains and fortunately I have never in my 4 years of working have i experienced or seen on the news any situation like this happen.
Personally, I don't even go because I'm hungry...I go because I am so miserable with myself that the only way to feel better is to absolutely abuse a child who is being paid dogshit money to work far too hard.

The myth that delivery drivers go through more dangers than police officers is obviously false. We all know the most dangerous job is working at Wendy's in Atlanta in 2020
I worked in a full service restaurant what nightmare. People treated me like shit cause they could. Absolute bullshit, my heart goes out to anyone still in that business.
Worked at Little Caesars during my 12th year of High school in a fairly wealthy neighborhood for over a year. Most of the time it was easy going and without any hassle for the customers. I would never worked there again (Pay is fucking trash) but I have fond memories with my crewmates! After that I worked at Taco Bell in a run down poor area and my god. Screaming customers over sauce on a $1 food, constantly running out of meat then have to explain the angry fucks that we don't have it due to the massive rush we get hit along side of people ordering so fucking much food in one sitting, Threating to get into fist fights (Thank god no gun was pulled out on us) if we don't do what the customer says AKA the customer is always right bullshit, Some Co-Workers are straight up assholes and don't wanna do their job (I don't either but that I have to work with with a shitty sub-urban area within walking distance), cops surrounded the whole joint for someone who did a crime and worse of all it was right by my car I just got during that time. I straight up left and burn that bridge down after 4ish month of working at Taco Bell. Haven't walked into one since and not plaining to till I die. I'm in the same boat. I have lot's of respect for most fast food workers giving how they have to put up with bullshit everyday for low pay. I hope they can get out of there ASAP!
Man I worked at whataburger and it was a completely different experience. Everyone loved me and I made a lot of people laugh. A lot of the managers also loved me and were just happy to see me and when I was sad or wasn't as cheery recurring costermers asked me if I was ok.
I just started at Olive Garden and so far, the managers have been very involved in making sure that the working environment is lively and relaxed but also efficient. I feel like once I get all of the little things that come with being a server down, it’ll become something like second nature. The hardest thing about the job tho by far is being nice to asshole customers who don’t tip.
Dude restaurants in my home town have started putting up signs that say “please be nice to the employees”. I’m starting a job at a coffee shop and I’m now starting to fear for my life

As a barista, just remember to lock those bathroom doors tight. I don't give a shit about company policy. The druggie and homeless don't get bathroom codes.
Fast food has it worse for sure, but I was a hostess at Texas Roadhouse when I was sixteen. Disgusting behavior from grown men acting like toddlers and feeling entitled to flirting and touching underage girls. I quit that job after a sex trafficking incident, and now work at a grocery store with very kind customers!
I worked night shift at a gas station in Florida, I worked alone, I was 20 and I’m female. That shit was so fucking scary, I almost got fired for carrying a weapon to work.
@remmy they are equal. Are you going to out-flex a bullet? If you aren't open minded enough or have enough common sense to think that through then I'm not going to be the one to change your mind.
@remmy you know what no longer matters when 2 people are pointing guns at each other? How much either of them benchpress, or how many belts they have in the martial art of their choice. Bullets hurt the Eddie Halls as well as the grandma's. It doesn't matter if you aren't prepped to shoot. They give you more seconds. In life or death, those feel like years.
Just got my McDonald’s order and they F’d it up. Maybe try getting simple things right and you would get better customers who don’t want to kill you over cold fries.
@@AustiuNoMatterWho lmao. Shut up fool. Why is it ridiculous? Can you articulate the reason or are you just grandstanding because it makes you feel good. Ask yourself this, does Chic Filet have more customers murder their employees or doe s McDonald’s/Wendy’s/Burger King. Choose your answer wisely young one.
I quit my job at a fast food place because I had one day where the cops showed up, told me to lock my doors, and apparently a cop was equipped with a shotgun all because of a crackhead was right in front of my restaurant. That was one of the plethora of reasons I decided to quit. Those days, I legit lived every day in fear that I would probably get seriously injured or killed because of either customers or just people around the store. And don't get me started on customers abusing the workers. Most people working in fast food do not deserve most of the terrible shit they go through.
In Canada, a "goof" is prison slang for a CP. Calling someone a "goof" is a major insult on the street, and if someone calls you a "goof" and you don't defend your name, it's a major "L". My guess is this is in like Calgary or somewhere in Ontario haha
I used to work at burger king and one time we had a lady come through the drive thru who was being rude and impatient- she had a pretty big order, we were understaffed and in a rush, so it was taking more than like 10 minutes- and my manager asked her to please be a bit more patient in the future. She took her card without paying and drove around to the front of the store and came inside and started screaming "I am the customer" over and over, which I find really funny cuz she didn't buy anything, and therefore wasn't technically a customer
Yikes. At a certain point, you just have to wonder how someone like that can feel so entitled over something so small. Godspeed, hero, for dealing with that Karen.
Never worked fast food, but I've worked 10+ years in retail. There are a hell of a lot of undiagnosed mental patients walking among us and it is both heartbreakingly depressing AND scary as hell because some of them are violent. All retail and service industry workers should be getting paid living wages and have paid vacation time for the shit they deal with PLUS how physically exhausting it can be on top of the emotional stuff. The world of a retail worker was so absurd to me and made me feel crazy some days. We are all going crazy in this country.
You said among us lol (in all seriousness I work in a customer service job and I've had to deal with these lunatics myself. My worst incident so far was a 50 something woman throwing a temper tantrum demanding a refund because it was too hot out, like I can control the weather).
I worked in my hospitals cafeteria and I was scared to say this but you did it for me, the amount of mental patients I've had to deal with, if I didn't move to housekeeping I would've lost my sanity and job due to finally snapping, 2 years in the cafeteria was enough lol I get it mental issues but still.... Edit: 15$ an hour Full-time Monday to Friday isn't survivable either fast food needs a new a new patch to fix that bug.
I once worked at a Dairy Queen and there was a homeless guy who showed up one day and he would sit on the bench outside every day and drink nothing but milk. He would sit there for hours only leaving to get milk and would stare down customers making them a little uneasy. Eventually there was enough complaints that the city took the bench away to try and fix the problem and he must have added vengeance to his daily routine because for a few days after he would come into the restaurant to use the bathroom and he would piss in the trash can for all of us to clean up. This went on for about a week with the cops showing up every day until we were able to get some sort of evidence against him. It was wild.
At my dairy queen that I no longer work at we'd have this homeless guy sit out on the benches and he'd be shouting about how our owner is hiding pedos. We got a trespass on him and he still comes around. The cops in my area don't give a fuck. Fast food places are where a bunch of shit goes down. Me and my buddy were pulled over when we were on our bikes it was like 2am and the cop was wanting to know if we had anything to do with a mf getting beaten with a baseball bat behind Arby's. Fucked up world man. Cop didn't even talk about our no lights
You took his fun away. I'd be pissed too if i was homeless and only drank milk and you never offered a free meal to me so i had to sit there for weeks.
There's an aggressive homeless guy who has called me nasty slurs who hangs out in front of the only five guys in my area. It sucks because sometimes I just want a burger lol
@@greatleader4841 uhh., no. You're wrong, milk costs more than water bottles and even soda is cheaper, he CHOSE to drink milk and bug customers at a dairy queen, he was probably a crackhead, do not try to make his behavior seem normal,, it is not,, it is disgusting, it is NOT normal. He's in the wrong. Sincerely, someone who used to be homeless and has had MANY experiences with homeless people because my mom just recently got out of being homeless. He isn't entitled to a meal from dairy queen, there is PLENTY of places one can get food at,, again, I should know from living in poverty. And why wouldn't he buy something to eat with that milk money? Jeeze you're fucking wild.
@@beans3669 barley, i work at Wendy’s and Wendy herself happened to come in. then I realized I forgot to put on deodorant, so she was tempted to cook me because we use human meat, luckily she came 10 mins before my shift ended so im cool
@@mightymeatymech Oh no, whatever will they do (make their lunch and take it with them) while you starve because your only life skill is flipping burgers?
I worked at a fast food job like 25 years ago for a while, and the amount of fuckery even then was insane. Having teens working at a fast food place open for all the degenerate scumbags until 3 AM ( or 24 hrs) is insane. A 15 year old is not equipped to deal with screeching drunk drivers etc.

just wanna say as som1 who worked fast food for 3 years it is EXTREMELY stressful. Like we are talking i genuinely contaplated killing myself over goin in for a shift. Me legs were getting fucked up working there. It was like bootcamp every day that would wear me out so much that i could never fully recover from the previous week on my days off. I have spilled hot fryer oil all over my arm and kept working knowing how fucked we would be had i let up even a moment. To me, I had no choice but to continue as this oil melts my arm. People think feeding an entire city is easy and its not. Dont matter how u slice it 12 people aint living through that, its likes trying to fight a mob of zombies without guns. Then people wonder why there food is takin 10 minutes to get to them
You know the saying "The customer is always right!" (its everywhere in the comment section). As I read comments and hear stories, I have a sinking feeling that the reason there's a saying isn't necessarily because the customer is always right, but rather if you don't admit they are, they'll either A: Beat the shit out of you. or B: Pull out a gun/ other weapon and threaten to kill you. Mad respect to fast food workers. Thank you guys for doing your jobs.
I think this behavior is actually a symptom of that saying being around for so long. People expect to be waited on hand and foot because of that saying and now they're getting pissed when they aren't given free stuff

I worked at Applebee's for a year, we had a customer verbally harass a server and throw shit at her (which is technically assault even if she wasn't hurt) we where not allowed to ban him from the store because he was a paying customer and the owners didn't want to lose business. They would rather sell a 2 for 20 than protect their employees
Just quit my job at Applebee's, and boy, people are the fucking worst at places like this. Had a man literally cuss me out and scream at me because he didn't get as many sides as he thought he would. I've had to add up people's totals in front of them when they get their receipts because they don't believe that the ticket could possibly cost that much (it was never more than thirty dollars). We also had these regulars that would get really elaborate meals- I'm talking like every single topping and extra anything- then they would complain about literally every single aspect of their meal and get a 50 dollar ticket reduced to 20 or less, then tip maximum three dollars. I've seen these people plant their own hairs in food for a discount. People seriously get mad over food, dude.

i’ve worked at mcalisters deli well over a year now, i have countless stories but my personal worst experience i’d say was when i was working the register when an older couple came in. the lady wanted a choose 2 with a salad and asked if she could have french dressing. i politely told her we don’t carry french and pointed to the list of dressings we had. “you don’t have french, that’s ridiculous, what kind of place is this?” she kinda went on for a couple seconds about how idiotic it was that we didn’t carry it. i kept reassuring her we had close alternatives but she wasn’t having it. which she didn’t finish ordering and the guy started to order. i suffered through the countless modifications he asked me to put in for him as the lady stood to the side looking like she wanted to murder me. i finally ask her what other half she wanted for her choose 2 and she starts bloody murder screaming at me for not having french and asks me to delete her entire order. she asked for a manager in which she was already approaching hearing a catastrophe was going on. the lady then starts screaming at my manager in which she tells her corporate makes the decision not us. so the lady THREATENS TO CALL CORPORATE ON US and file a complaint. like it’s DRESSING
Lmfao, I've worked at Potbelly's Sandwich Shop and I've had several incidents like that. We have a deli mustard which is like a spicy mustard, and the amount of people that get enraged that we don't have normal yellow mustard is quite hilarious.
My personal experience in the fine dining/wine industry: Before COVID, I worked in a winery/"fine dining" restaurant combo for a few years and I've seen adults from all ages throw full-blown temper tantrums over the littlest shit. Someone didn't serve the client fast enough, even though they had been served seconds ago. The customer didn't like the way something tasted because it's not the same as they remembered it 30 years prior. I've seen rowdy drunks threat violence and lawsuits for being politely told to use indoor voices and control their use of foul language in respect for others. I've come across people having sex to doing drugs in our bathrooms. Anything goes and our reports get scrapped to protect brand image. Oh, and the same workers that made these little "mistakes" were typically terminated on the spot, because the "customer is always right". We had freely given away so much valuable wine to encourage customers to lighten their "bad experience". The yelp review threat is a real thing, and employees have been fired over yelp threats. You can be the BEST employee, but if you made any form of mistake in the eyes of a customer, you're terminated and potentially facing lawsuit from said customer or winery. The management team was never truly on our side and would collect any information or spin any form of rumored info to help them fire an employee. Due to the stress of constantly dealing with aggressive customers and management/their practices, most of us had developed alcoholism to cope with everyday work. What was a passion of ours became a sickness. During my last year of being in the wine industry, we would see one to two people fired almost weekly and we were almost always under some form of influence to get through the day. Even in the fancy places, customers try to pull anything and everything to get their way. Sorry for the long rant.
In my 10 years of F&B experience I have witnessed domestic violence, mega karens, a serial bathroom floor defecator that was never caught, theft (mainly by other employees), food fights, over doses, and the occasional heart attack/heat stroke in the parking lot. The next time you go to a drive-thru and are met with an employee in a not-so-my-pleasure mood, give them a break because you don't know what they've been dealing with in the last 7 hours standing in the same spot repeating "Thank you for choosing _______ would you like to try _________". Seriously.
Means nothing to me. You don’t care what I experienced in my day to day life, why should I give a crap about your day? You’re in hospitality for a reason. If you can’t do that, or don’t want to, seek to find a better suited job.
I managed a Burger King like 7 years ago, called the cops weekly for different incidents, was held at gunpoint when we were robbed on a Sunday night, and witnessed a man overdose and die in the drive thru. After a woman threw a shake at me she had her family start calling my job to threaten me and tell me they were going to hurt me (I walked home every night and nothing happened) but they let me go since they were “concerned for my well-being” lol
Man listen to me. I am honestly worried about you even though I don't know you and if I hear that a burger King employee died from something stupid like that I am going to be livid. Please never work there again man, for your safety.
As a Manager at McDonald’s, the training for management is 75% dealing with these people. There are no protections if we fight back, so we have to stall for the (up to 4h) it takes for police or security to arrive OR try and get them to leave. Some of the older managers I’ve met are the calmest people I’ve ever met.

I actually got told by a customer at my job, heading to the bathroom after busting my ass all morning due to employee shortage. "So...how's it going? Overpaid and hardly working?" Like...EXCUSE ME?
I worked at a fast food place for over 2 years and the amount of racism that happened and grown men yelling at under age girls was 😳 it honestly got stressful at times

Yo fam I’m a small content creator, and I make a variety of entertaining reactions, vlogs, and a range of other content and I’m still working on quality but I guarantee you will find something you will enjoy 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾‼
This is why I never complain or act rude to people in the service industry, I don't care how shitty the service was, the worse thing I'll do is leave a bad tip/no tip, that's it, I'm not trying to start an issue, I don't know what they're going through and I don't care, I just want to be on my way
I feel like this never happens in Australia, or at least in the town I live in. The worst thing I've seen in a McDonalds is either a teenager skipping school or a kid sulking quietly over his happy meal toy.
I've only ever worked in retail but I definitely have experience people like this. I feel like fast food is another level entirely. I will never work in fast food.
True people always ask why i'm always ready to throw hands even at the most inconvenient moments as a service industry worker. I've had multiple people over the couple years get irate right in my face. Luckily when you give them the I could break you stare they usually learn really quick your not gonna give into their threats.
@@dr.dylansgame5583 I worked at a car parts store and the folks that come in there will always try and start something they will come and threaten you so quickly I know three off the top of my head that tried to do something I was just a kid and these grown men would come in trying to do something
i think these types of people find it amusing that you can't stand up for yourself because it's your job and see you as someone who should only focus on serving them, and when you actually do something to defend yourself and make them feel terrible, they'll have a false sense of injustice, because "they're allowed to do anything they want and you shouldn't talk back to them and know your place". thats just my theory that explains their odd and harmful behavior. or it might be just that fast foods are serving something that contains substances lol glad i dont like fast food
Had a GROWN ASS MAN prank call the papa johns I work at 53 TIMES IN A ROW just to insult and belittle us. He kept changing numbers and kept harassing us for about an hour and a half. Like bro needs to get a life, not tell me to get a life for being a college student just trying to survive
Weak people have to put other down to feel strong. I see it a lot in old people who aren’t veterans but act like they would’ve been badass. I literally had an old cunt tell me Vietnam “would have been like a hunting trip” like dude that’s a sackhair away from stolen valor.
I was in the drive thru at McDonald’s, all I had ordered was an Oreo McFlurry for my little sister. They gave me the McFlurry and a regular spoon, not the usual big one that looks like a straw lmao. The lady at the window said “We’re out of McFlurry spoons so I gave you a regular one, I’m really sorry.” I was confused and said “That’s fine, but do people throw a fit if they don’t get a McFlurry spoon?” She said “You’d be surprised how many people get pissed if they don’t get one.” I was genuinely shocked. I work at a Burger King so I’ve seen my fair share of bullshit. But throwing tantrums over spoons? Jesus fuck that’s sad.
Wow i wish i didnt read all of that. My lawyer will contact your lawyer about the time you will be paying me back. And i want it in earth minutes, paid up front.
I have over a decade of the Kitchen/Fast Food industry experience: I have been shouted at face first, a chair thrown at me and my co-worker, threatened with harm and death, racially scrutinized, been called racist and homophobic slurs (because of my race and sexual preference lmao), belittle by higher ups, and discriminated as a man. I love the industry, but you need to be iron-forged for what is an entry level job, and that's wrong. The only theory I have on why people treat us like this is probably because of a power complex: "this person serves me, therefore they are beneath me." If someone is doing a job you don't wanna do, they deserve respect IMO.
as someone who worked in a Wendy's a year ago, I was running the front by myself. We only had about 2 people making the food and I let everyone know that their food orders were gonna be a bit longer than expected. Only a few people understood, the rest didnt. They were yelling left and right and threatening us if we didn't work fast enough. Me and another coworker had a bad panic attack and had to hide in the back to calm down. I quit after a few days due to the nonsense human beings act when it comes to food, so a little notice to anyone starting their first job, be very cautious about looking into the fast food industry. And if you suffer from bad anxiety, I don't recommend working these kinds of jobs, it's way and I mean WAY too stressful.
As someone who has major anxiety and worked for the fast food industry for 2 1/2 years. I don’t regret it, I have grown and learned a lot of skills. Sure nothing is fuckin perfect since people can be major asshats.. I made some really good memories and perspective. Good job for trying!! Some people don’t even last a day/week.
That's why it's good experience as well as incentive to become qualified for better work. It is amazing how horrible some people can be to others tho, and people who demean food service workers are just absolute losers for sure
I worked at a McDonald's when I was in high-school where I got called racial slurs, people throwing their food/drink at me for not getting the order right, fully grown men cussing me out because I told them they're gonna have to wait 10 minuets for their order to get done, customer service really sucks. No wonder no one wants to work 11 $ an hour to get screamed at by people 3x their age. My heart goes out to thoes who are kind to service workers, bless yall
I hated the condescending attitude of high school teachers and shitbag restaurant managers. Like you, I was tired of getting yelled at by grown men and women with fragile egos and low tempers. I enlisted in the Marine Corps to escape it. Boy was I stupid for that.

As a fast food worker, I am grateful that none of this has ever happened to me or anyone else that I work with. The customers we usually get are understanding and kind, and we never have any outbreaks like what happened here.
“Sometimes they don’t come in for food, they just come in to fuck shit up”

I am the assistant manager of a local fast food restaurant, and I always inform all my new employees first thing upon hiring them that if a customer ever becomes irate in a way that makes them fearful, or if I ever tell them to, they are to immediately drop whatever it is that they are doing, leave the front line and go to the office in the back of the restaurant and stay there until I come back and say they can return to work. These are just kids, and their safety is my number one priority.

Thats abhorrent, but at the same time im ngl, thats really funny to imagine.
The worst part is that usually, teenagers usually take the brunt of these arguments and near-assaults. I remember quitting my job at Wendy's after a customer walked inside with 3 visible firearms on his waist asking us why we didn't have his Baconator ready and why he shouldn't shoot the store up. It's near inducing trauma that no one, especially teenagers, should ever have to deal with.
Imagine using a gun to threaten a bunch of teenagers over a sandwich, that's some next level bullshit.

When I worked for Wendy’s for 10 years (15-25 years old), I carried pepper spray. I sprayed 3 people in all that time who I thought were becoming a threat to me. 2 came over the counter, and 1 came running up on me in the parking lot. But ALL 3 of them went down crying like literal babies each and every time. There’s nothing that will cool a person off quicker than to be blessed with the hot sauce. Don’t cheap out on this. Get the best kind you can.. one that sprays liquid, NOT the gel, and has a wide spray angle. Complaints were made about ME when I defended myself, but I never lost my job, and I never got charged by the police. In fact, I was applauded by police. In most states, spraying someone who is verbally assaulting you and trying to close space on you is totally legal and fine. Use it. It’s the BEST tool for situations that don’t involve firearms or other deadly weapons.
Please be sure to check your state laws, as your state may vary.

I used to be a manager at Pizza Hut, and that was the most mentally draining job that I have ever had. I had my share of crazy customers, but the worst was a woman who exploited our remake policy to constantly get free food from us. She would place an order, wait for it to arrive, and then find more flaws in than than the health inspector could find. After which, she would demand a refund. And this didn’t just happen once a month, this happened nearly every day of the week. It happened so much that me and the other employees started taking pictures of her order before we gave it to her, just to prove that she was full of s**t and that she wasn’t getting bad food every time she ordered. This went on until my boss finally confronted her. He went to her house, dressed as a delivery driver and called her out about all her complaints and the quality of the food she received. She tried to complain about the food he delivered to her, but he was able to shut her down about everything.
Parents must be proud of her 😅

When I worked at Domino's, there was a lady who would repeatedly claim her contactless delivery never arrived, and when we stopped doing that, she would refuse to answer the door and get mad if the driver didn't leave the pizza at the door.
I've dealt with 3 cop level events when I worked at McDonald's.
The most notable was when a customer came in, demanded his sandwich not be made by that * racist word* and got into a fight with the 300 pound manager and sandwich maker.
It took the police 34 minutes to arrive. 34 minutes and the station was less than a mile away
Sounds terrible
@Jack Wrath dude shut up
I was having break when my manager called me over to sit with her(I was near the troublemakers), she was on her break as well and she's on the phone with security. We had a group of boys mess with our cameras I think I can't remember but they've done it 3 times after my manager telling them to get out. I don't think security ever actually came💀 and when I was at orientation I was told we would have a lot of security since we're in a crummy area but I guess not.
When seconds matter the police are 30 minutes away
Certified cop moment
I worked at a Panera Bread. What made it so bad is that during the pandemic everyone was ordering online with very specific customizations. It was to the point where people would literally get a cheaper sandwitch and modify it into entirely other sandwitches to hack the system. Everything was entirely catered to customers to a degree that had never been done before. And so people started going back into society, and demanded the comfort of their own home from us in the middle of a rush with 50 different modifications to every order because that was the expectation during the pandemic. I remember this lady ordered a baja bowl with every ingredient in individual cups on the side during peak hours. Wouldn't dream of giving a tip either. And when we don't have the resources to provide this attention or comfort (rationally speaking, we never did) parents threw tantrums so bad that their kids were apologizing for them. And then on top of that, our managers were sexually harassing us and they were always quick to let us know that HR exists to protect the company and not us.
Sadly I see this shit everyday not as a worker but as the customer it's why I try and crack jokes and be polite to them and keep my order simple cause I've been in that position and getting upset or being a twat about it doesn't solve anything
THISSS. Beginning I got a job at a bbq place now I'm working at a gas station. oh my gosh okra wasn't crispy enough they meant they wanted it burnt (actually). asking for their meat to be more tender even though most of those meats were put on a smoking pit for 12 hours over the night. There's a 42 year old man that tried to fight me and a mom that called a 16y/o cashier incompetent cuz she didn't know what was in the potato salad
@@jamesprice2163 I that I just want to say that I have no problem with 95+% of customers. I mean customers are human beings and most people don't want trouble especially if they can avoid it, but you start doing the numbers on the fact that you are just dealing with the food of up to 200+ people, and even if 95% of customers are great, we are still talking about potentially still 3 or 4 hellish customers a day. The math was never going to be kind to us, and I suppose that that is tragic. I do appreciate you. I apprecaite the park ranger that loved lemonade and gushing about her homelife. I mean during the pademic I sewed myself a minion mask because the kids would rush in and point at it and get all excited because they recognized the minions. Even in the comment that I'm kind of surprised blew up, I pointed out that I could deal with a shitty customer or two, but the management did me in. I'm male, but I'm very small, and I get misgendered a lot. I was constantly refered to as a twink which I could live with, but I had a manager literally talk about how he fantasized about raping me which I couldn't live with. I got constantly harassed, and literally assualted at one point. I was vocal about it, but no one cared. I could deal with the customers, but for my own physical and mental well being, I had to leave what was a severely abusive workplace. And I left people behind there, and it sucks.
Panera Bread mentally, physically, and emotionally eroded me to the point where I was thinking about killing myself by the end of every shift. When I finally had the means to leave that job I felt so much better. It was like the dark cloud that hung over me for 2 years finally dissipated.
im 17, and ive worked at a panera bread for around a year and a half. i just would like to say, the ammount of items with more than 15-20 modifications is astounding. also, the ammount of people who think its a nice sit down restaurant. my coworkers have been flagged down to tables because the customers thought they where waiters.
I was a security guard at a mall for a year and this was a weekly occurrence. The amount of recurring villains we had made it feel like an episodic cartoon. There was the schizophrenic lady that pushes a stroller with a baby doll and bottle of whiskey, the old Mexican guys that regularly harassed women then pretend they don’t speak English, the lady throwing pickle jars at the Big Lots and screaming rape, the local Hells Angels chapter VP threatening us because we wouldn’t let him sell chocolates to raise funds for his church, the teenagers, the moth man, the schizophrenic man who would point out “crimes” to help us out (he genuinely thought he was helping but the person he described usually didn’t exist) until he went rogue and beat another homeless man with a chair in the food court, and the crippled homeless man that liked to instigate people (it became a fight two times, first time he was beaten with his own forearm cane and the second time with a chair) I think it has more to do with how shitty that city and mall are than anything though

True
Fast food didn't break me, but being a cashier did. My boss always said how calm and collected I was. No, I was just good at controlling my actions. The number of times I wanted to deliver a nice helping of whoopass was more than I care to admit. Luckily, nobody pushed me that far. My large build and serial killer stare that was refined over a decade in customer service probably scared people. One dude tried to push me but quickly left for some reason.
This is why everywhere I go I am especially nice to everyone in the retail industries, whether its food or just checking out at the grocery store. The fact that people are shocked when you just say "thank you" or "how are you today?", which should be common courtesy, is absolutely insane. The amount of self entitled people and rude people in our society today goes to show that alot of parents did not do their job.
i mostly made good experiences with customers, weird meltdowns or angry yelling are very rare cases. could probably count them on one hand over a period of 2 years working in service industry. and I certainly never experienced something even remotely close to this.
Same, for me, when there's a mistake, if it's on my behalf, I just apologize and if possible I joke about it, if they did it, I just say "no problem, that happens, don't worry" and if possible I'll joke about it too, some people that work in retail might've had a bad day, either because some personal problem or shitty client, so bringing laughter to them can change their day
Im glad most young parents nowadays are actually doing their jobs unlike their own parents❤️
sometimes it has nothing to do with parents. either way, they're still choosing to act that way.

I used to work in fast food when I was younger, nothing pisses people off more than the consequences of their own actions.
I worked in fast food for three years and I could go on for days about the customers being insane, but by far the one that stands out to me the most was the Large Coke incident.
It was a standard chaotic Friday afternoon. We were all exhausted from the current lunch rush, but it was payday, and the cars were beginning to slow down. It was mid-pandemic, so it seemed that every single person in the entire town was here to order way too many burgers, and scream at their children and spouses when they think we can't hear them through the speaker.
Lunch rush was slowing down, coming to a gentle stream of cars. A lady pulls up to the speaker. The ding that is responsible for my slight hearing loss rings out. Now, I wish I could remember what else this lovely loutish lady ordered, but such knowledge is forbidden by the gods. Her order was a holy one, not for one so low as myself. She wanted her order, and she wanted it exactly how she ordered it. All my feeble, mortal mind can remember is that she ordered a medium Coke, and a lot of food. My coworker, my poor innocent coworker, took her order. We make her food, striving to make it fast enough so that the constant glaring timer doesnt turn red and remind us all of how much we are all failures because we don't have 27 arms, therefore making the ever-important and ever-impatient customer wait an extra two minutes for a fresh patty.
Anyways, the lady pulls forward in her run-down silver Hummer H2. I thought she had a very silent passenger with her in the car, but when I went to get her payment, I made eye contact with the most insurmountable amount of trash I had ever seen in my life. I saw our wrappers, mixed in with other fast-food logos. I gasped inaudibly. She was an epicure; only eating the finest of delicacies. You and I might've called it garbage. But she was more enlightened than we.
I took her card, having no idea what was about to unfold. The next few minutes seemed to simutaniously race by and slow to a halt at the same time. My coworker hands her the food. I hand her card back. I turn around and I see it. Slow motion, my coworker is walking to the window, a large Coke in his hands. I think to myself, "Well, that's not right, she ordered a medium." But, I know that if I, an unenlightened fool, were given a bigger drink than I had asked for, I would be ecstatic. So I didn't say a word. I thought, "Oh, she's going to be so excited."
He hands her the drink, then closes. the window. The next few seconds were the calm before the storm. We were cleaning, mentally preparing for the next customers, and also sweating profusely because the AC was broken (as it had been for weeks) and it was about 110% inside. We hear pounding on the drive-thru window. We turn, not unfamiliar to this sound, but cautious because it always meant someone wanted to scream at us. We were surprised to see the lady that we had just served, and my coworker opens up the window yet again, only to be met with a barrage of yelling.
Attempts to figure out what she wanted were futile at first, but she finally made her point clear.
She ordered a medium Coke, not a large.
She wanted a full refund.
We said, "ma'am, we're so sorry, but we can't refund, you got everything you ordered, and a free extra drink. We can give you a medium soda, or a coupon, but you can't get a refund."
She kept insisting and yelling, and eventually our team manager came over and told her the same thing. She did a burn out in our drive thru. (Thinking that it would offend us I guess? I suppose I can't be expected to understand her motives, she was far more intellectual than I)
Over getting a large Coke as opposed to a medium.
Not even Jesus Christ himself would have the ability to withstand the constant barrage of mental abuse that fast food service workers deal with on the regular. Always remember to be polite. The workers actually care a lot about the quality of food they give out, its corporate that enforces food to be shitty because they care about wait times more than they care about actually making good food.
this was so well written dude lmao
This teleported me into your shoes, amazing comment
Honestly was not worth my time to read
Reminds me of this one time a lady reported me to my manager all because I had mistakingly forgotten to give her her soda cup. I also had this other homeless guy freak out and cancel his whole like 15$ order just because he couldn't get the shamrock shake in October. Good times those were... good times
I told some boomer he could save 2$ by ordering a larger size and he screamed at me he didn’t want that and asking me if he stuttered.
Anyone that has worked with the public is fully aware just how low IQ the average human is.

Literally my worst employment by far. And it was my first job
Honestly I saw the shit really hit the fan once COVID hit with the customers. Been working at the same McDonald's as an Assistant Manager (worked my way up from crew) and have been there for 7 years. It is absolutely shocking and appalling the way that some of the customers act and the things that I have seen at work. I do love my job for the nice people that are coming through every day, but I got to say the bad ones have increased in numbers greatly.
Damn, sorry to hear that dude. Has it been a steady increase in bad customer behavior? I wonder why that is.
Like do you notice correlation with Covid/lockdown trends, inflation, etc?
@@AD-lh3jk You haven't noticed? Ever since COVID, no one knows how to act. On the regular, people are rude as shit, on the roads everyone goes like 20 miles above the speed limit, I guess because of how COVID mentally affected them to not care about their life or others, more shootings and stabbings, life has been terrible in general recently, all because of COVID.
People have become a lot angrier and bitter, especially since Covid. It's become a pandemic in itself. It's pretty sad because it's a deep-rooted issue within society, yet people continue the vicious cycle
i FELT THIS. i personally work at a whataburger in texas for 3yrs now and im in management and i honestly love the job. does it get a little hectic? yes. have i been held at gunpoint over a shake bc the machine was being cleaned? yeah. but these experiences (at least for me) are few and far between and lowkey everyone except for the chosen few disciples of fast food junkies and entitled fucks that think that they are more important than others. people are pretty considerate but it does get to a point where there really shouldnt be any lashing out over mustard or something. you have a problem? be an adult and be civil for the love of god XD since covid started its definitely gotten worse and since im an adult i dont get as much shit as i did when i was a teenager team member, but when i do get shit its heavy XD
@@AD-lh3jk I typically call it "covid madness". It's a accumulation of trauma from the pandemic, the stress it has place on communities, division in beliefs for health precautions such as masking and vaccination, and ongoing uncertainties for our way of life. As well, some of these people may have lost family or friends to the pandemic - socially and through fatalities. This sort of mental strain does take a toll. There is a more essential criteria to factor in, and that is due to covids nature - as a vascular disease - it is possible it has altered the psychological aspects of some people who have repeatedly contracted covid. Covid is hard on the immune system and especially the vascular system, the capillaries especially in the brain as well as soft tissue in major organs. We sometimes see this sort of behavior in those suffering extreme psychosis, usually with mental degradation, possibly caused by impaired health due to multiple covid infections. It can kind of be compared to rabies, though realistically rabies does not make people "lunge or bite" like zombies. Rabies is a neurotypical disease, which causes shut down in the neuro pathways in the body, causes fits and seizures, sensitivity to sounds and especially light, or movement - hence why sometimes those who are dying from rabies, or animals especially, will lash out and bite. The person or animal is not aggressive persay, they are merely wounded, dying, and scared. The covid virus may be having similar affects on those people, making them more aggressive, short of temper, sensitive to slight variations in their environment, and downright unpleasant (if they weren't masking in the first place out of decency, then they were intolerable to begin with).
Though I typically lay blame of these public freakouts, with the stress of the overall pandemic. However, I tentatively bear in mind that covid as a viral pathogen geared to infecting the vascular system, and the destruction it commits on essential capillaries in the brain, that this contagion may be having a more adverse affect on the individuals who huff it weekly. If it causes brainfog and other mental struggles for some, it isn't that hard to believe
I work in retail but I hold fast food workers so highly and have so much respect for what they do. Truly wish I could do more for them.

I worked retail/food service where we had a decent amount of samples and the main nearly only joy I got was hooking the genuinely nice people TF up with free bonus treats on the way out. Regulars and folks you could just tell were decent folks, especially if they had kids in tow. I'd also hook the kids up with mini tours of production if we were slow. That was great.
And wasn't tip department, we weren't allowed to take tips, but there was a jar for the local food bank which... Coworkers had to use. Don't miss the effing management there. Miss the good folks, coworkers and customers.
Even if you're not just being a decent human being (and like. Do that.) I've gotten so much incidental awesome just by being one even before working that job. And much less stress than being a jerk. Although I never expect to get free or discount or off menu bonuses, maybe that's why I do, idk.
Tell me about it. The year and a half I worked cashier through the pandemic in a store that was the only one enforcing mask policy in an area that’s far more red than blue and let me tell you. There’s nothing quite like having your life actively threatened on a daily basis by either a man who either has less teeth than he does braincells, weighs a good 200-300 pounds more than you, is covered in so much camo you’d think they’re trying to hunt deer in a grocery store or a combination of the three.

They had a pre-existing window that used to be for calling out eating on site (picnic tables) folks. COVID they used it for pickup orders. One jackass who refused to mask also refused to get his order through the window.

I've been stalked, harassed, and dealt with attempted break ins. Nothing is more horrifying than cleaning after close and hearing someone outside furiously rattling the drive thru window.
As a former McDonald's back-drive cashier, I can testify this.
I worked at a five guys for so many years and never had any problems, until we started doing deliveroo. Some restaurants in area had been getting held up and because of that, we had a strict no biker helmet policy in our restaurant. Most the the riders where fine with that rule, but every so often we would get one refusing to take it off and would then get violent. Also their bikes regularly got stolen when riders where inside collecting orders.

Dude was walking around the store screaming "I'M SCHIZOPHRENIC!". Cops eventually showed up and tased the dude, he shrugged it off. they tackled him and he busted the side of his head open on our ice cream cooler, blood was everywhere. Guess who had to mop it up?
A woman stumbled up to me while i was smoking a cigarette outside of the store. She was covered in blood. Screamed she was dying. I immediately called 911
Apparently her boyfriend had stabbed her something like 7 times, dude thought he stole drugs from her or something. she came back a few weeks later and thanked me. She gave me a cute handwritten note. I still keep it.

This is why "The customer is always right" needs to be tossed in the incinerator, it's every form of wrong imaginable. The real saying should always be "The customer knows what they want within reason", extra emphasis on the last two words.
I work in Healthcare. The same applies there. Management has that "customer is always right" mentality. We get shit tons of Karen's and Chad's who think Healthcare facilities are restaurants and resorts. Family members dictating staffing because they don't "like" a certain staff member for whatever reason. Ppl trying to make up for their failures in parenting/sibling/spouse by complaining all the time.
Really? So when I order a cheeseburger with "only cheese" it's supposed to come with all the normal toppings on it? When I order that way, I'm being "every form of wrong imaginable"? You actually think that? I couldn't possibly be right, obviously.
Yes, I actually had that happen at a Chili's and the waiter had the gall to give me an entire lecture about I ordered it wrong and how I needed to say "plain." I wasn't ordering it wrong. I have used "plain" before and too much of the time they do the exact thing I want to avoid: all the usual toppings.
The employees are every bit as bad as the customers. The only difference is the customer has almost nothing to lose.
Yes, really.
Asking a burger with only cheese is not outside of reason.
From the perspective you are speaking from the manager was wrong to speak to you in that manner.

Screaming customers over sauce on a $1 food, constantly running out of meat then have to explain the angry fucks that we don't have it due to the massive rush we get hit along side of people ordering so fucking much food in one sitting, Threating to get into fist fights (Thank god no gun was pulled out on us) if we don't do what the customer says AKA the customer is always right bullshit, Some Co-Workers are straight up assholes and don't wanna do their job (I don't either but that I have to work with with a shitty sub-urban area within walking distance), cops surrounded the whole joint for someone who did a crime and worse of all it was right by my car I just got during that time.

I'm in the same boat. I have lot's of respect for most fast food workers giving how they have to put up with bullshit everyday for low pay. I hope they can get out of there ASAP!
Man I worked at whataburger and it was a completely different experience. Everyone loved me and I made a lot of people laugh. A lot of the managers also loved me and were just happy to see me and when I was sad or wasn't as cheery recurring costermers asked me if I was ok.
@@qgpizzagaming3595 whataburger is great, no wonder people are nice there lol
Sure.
I just started at Olive Garden and so far, the managers have been very involved in making sure that the working environment is lively and relaxed but also efficient. I feel like once I get all of the little things that come with being a server down, it’ll become something like second nature. The hardest thing about the job tho by far is being nice to asshole customers who don’t tip.
Dude restaurants in my home town have started putting up signs that say “please be nice to the employees”. I’m starting a job at a coffee shop and I’m now starting to fear for my life
Hot coffee can scar someone for life, fyi. Be safe and dodge fast

Fast food has it worse for sure, but I was a hostess at Texas Roadhouse when I was sixteen. Disgusting behavior from grown men acting like toddlers and feeling entitled to flirting and touching underage girls. I quit that job after a sex trafficking incident, and now work at a grocery store with very kind customers!
I worked night shift at a gas station in Florida, I worked alone, I was 20 and I’m female. That shit was so fucking scary, I almost got fired for carrying a weapon to work.
@remmy they are equal. Are you going to out-flex a bullet? If you aren't open minded enough or have enough common sense to think that through then I'm not going to be the one to change your mind.
@remmy you know what no longer matters when 2 people are pointing guns at each other? How much either of them benchpress, or how many belts they have in the martial art of their choice. Bullets hurt the Eddie Halls as well as the grandma's. It doesn't matter if you aren't prepped to shoot. They give you more seconds. In life or death, those feel like years.

I quit my job at a fast food place because I had one day where the cops showed up, told me to lock my doors, and apparently a cop was equipped with a shotgun all because of a crackhead was right in front of my restaurant. That was one of the plethora of reasons I decided to quit. Those days, I legit lived every day in fear that I would probably get seriously injured or killed because of either customers or just people around the store.
And don't get me started on customers abusing the workers. Most people working in fast food do not deserve most of the terrible shit they go through.

In Canada, a "goof" is prison slang for a CP. Calling someone a "goof" is a major insult on the street, and if someone calls you a "goof" and you don't defend your name, it's a major "L". My guess is this is in like Calgary or somewhere in Ontario haha
I used to work at burger king and one time we had a lady come through the drive thru who was being rude and impatient- she had a pretty big order, we were understaffed and in a rush, so it was taking more than like 10 minutes- and my manager asked her to please be a bit more patient in the future. She took her card without paying and drove around to the front of the store and came inside and started screaming "I am the customer" over and over, which I find really funny cuz she didn't buy anything, and therefore wasn't technically a customer
Your not alone me too
That's pretty funny indeed
Yikes. At a certain point, you just have to wonder how someone like that can feel so entitled over something so small.

Never worked fast food, but I've worked 10+ years in retail. There are a hell of a lot of undiagnosed mental patients walking among us and it is both heartbreakingly depressing AND scary as hell because some of them are violent. All retail and service industry workers should be getting paid living wages and have paid vacation time for the shit they deal with PLUS how physically exhausting it can be on top of the emotional stuff. The world of a retail worker was so absurd to me and made me feel crazy some days. We are all going crazy in this country.
You said among us lol (in all seriousness I work in a customer service job and I've had to deal with these lunatics myself. My worst incident so far was a 50 something woman throwing a temper tantrum demanding a refund because it was too hot out, like I can control the weather).

I once worked at a Dairy Queen and there was a homeless guy who showed up one day and he would sit on the bench outside every day and drink nothing but milk. He would sit there for hours only leaving to get milk and would stare down customers making them a little uneasy. Eventually there was enough complaints that the city took the bench away to try and fix the problem and he must have added vengeance to his daily routine because for a few days after he would come into the restaurant to use the bathroom and he would piss in the trash can for all of us to clean up. This went on for about a week with the cops showing up every day until we were able to get some sort of evidence against him. It was wild.
At my dairy queen that I no longer work at we'd have this homeless guy sit out on the benches and he'd be shouting about how our owner is hiding pedos. We got a trespass on him and he still comes around. The cops in my area don't give a fuck. Fast food places are where a bunch of shit goes down. Me and my buddy were pulled over when we were on our bikes it was like 2am and the cop was wanting to know if we had anything to do with a mf getting beaten with a baseball bat behind Arby's. Fucked up world man. Cop didn't even talk about our no lights
You took his fun away. I'd be pissed too if i was homeless and only drank milk and you never offered a free meal to me so i had to sit there for weeks.
There's an aggressive homeless guy who has called me nasty slurs who hangs out in front of the only five guys in my area. It sucks because sometimes I just want a burger lol
@@greatleader4841 uhh., no. You're wrong, milk costs more than water bottles and even soda is cheaper, he CHOSE to drink milk and bug customers at a dairy queen, he was probably a crackhead, do not try to make his behavior seem normal,, it is not,, it is disgusting, it is NOT normal. He's in the wrong. Sincerely, someone who used to be homeless and has had MANY experiences with homeless people because my mom just recently got out of being homeless.
He isn't entitled to a meal from dairy queen, there is PLENTY of places one can get food at,, again, I should know from living in poverty. And why wouldn't he buy something to eat with that milk money? Jeeze you're fucking wild.

just wanna say as som1 who worked fast food for 3 years it is EXTREMELY stressful. Like we are talking i genuinely contaplated killing myself over goin in for a shift. Me legs were getting fucked up working there. It was like bootcamp every day that would wear me out so much that i could never fully recover from the previous week on my days off. I have spilled hot fryer oil all over my arm and kept working knowing how fucked we would be had i let up even a moment. To me, I had no choice but to continue as this oil melts my arm. People think feeding an entire city is easy and its not. Dont matter how u slice it 12 people aint living through that, its likes trying to fight a mob of zombies without guns.
Then people wonder why there food is takin 10 minutes to get to them
You know the saying "The customer is always right!" (its everywhere in the comment section). As I read comments and hear stories, I have a sinking feeling that the reason there's a saying isn't necessarily because the customer is always right, but rather if you don't admit they are, they'll either
A: Beat the shit out of you.
or
B: Pull out a gun/ other weapon and threaten to kill you.
Mad respect to fast food workers. Thank you guys for doing your jobs.
I think this behavior is actually a symptom of that saying being around for so long. People expect to be waited on hand and foot because of that saying and now they're getting pissed when they aren't given free stuff

I worked at Applebee's for a year, we had a customer verbally harass a server and throw shit at her (which is technically assault even if she wasn't hurt) we where not allowed to ban him from the store because he was a paying customer and the owners didn't want to lose business. They would rather sell a 2 for 20 than protect their employees
And they wonder why people are quitting their jobs and can't find anyone to replace them with.

Just quit my job at Applebee's, and boy, people are the fucking worst at places like this. Had a man literally cuss me out and scream at me because he didn't get as many sides as he thought he would. I've had to add up people's totals in front of them when they get their receipts because they don't believe that the ticket could possibly cost that much (it was never more than thirty dollars). We also had these regulars that would get really elaborate meals- I'm talking like every single topping and extra anything- then they would complain about literally every single aspect of their meal and get a 50 dollar ticket reduced to 20 or less, then tip maximum three dollars. I've seen these people plant their own hairs in food for a discount. People seriously get mad over food, dude.

i’ve worked at mcalisters deli well over a year now, i have countless stories but my personal worst experience i’d say was when i was working the register when an older couple came in. the lady wanted a choose 2 with a salad and asked if she could have french dressing. i politely told her we don’t carry french and pointed to the list of dressings we had. “you don’t have french, that’s ridiculous, what kind of place is this?” she kinda went on for a couple seconds about how idiotic it was that we didn’t carry it. i kept reassuring her we had close alternatives but she wasn’t having it. which she didn’t finish ordering and the guy started to order. i suffered through the countless modifications he asked me to put in for him as the lady stood to the side looking like she wanted to murder me. i finally ask her what other half she wanted for her choose 2 and she starts bloody murder screaming at me for not having french and asks me to delete her entire order. she asked for a manager in which she was already approaching hearing a catastrophe was going on. the lady then starts screaming at my manager in which she tells her corporate makes the decision not us. so the lady THREATENS TO CALL CORPORATE ON US and file a complaint. like it’s DRESSING
Must have been exhausting to handle such babies who have a hour breakdown for stupid reasons
Lmfao, I've worked at Potbelly's Sandwich Shop and I've had several incidents like that. We have a deli mustard which is like a spicy mustard, and the amount of people that get enraged that we don't have normal yellow mustard is quite hilarious.
My personal experience in the fine dining/wine industry:
Before COVID, I worked in a winery/"fine dining" restaurant combo for a few years and I've seen adults from all ages throw full-blown temper tantrums over the littlest shit.
Someone didn't serve the client fast enough, even though they had been served seconds ago. The customer didn't like the way something tasted because it's not the same as they remembered it 30 years prior. I've seen rowdy drunks threat violence and lawsuits for being politely told to use indoor voices and control their use of foul language in respect for others. I've come across people having sex to doing drugs in our bathrooms. Anything goes and our reports get scrapped to protect brand image. Oh, and the same workers that made these little "mistakes" were typically terminated on the spot, because the "customer is always right".
We had freely given away so much valuable wine to encourage customers to lighten their "bad experience". The yelp review threat is a real thing, and employees have been fired over yelp threats. You can be the BEST employee, but if you made any form of mistake in the eyes of a customer, you're terminated and potentially facing lawsuit from said customer or winery. The management team was never truly on our side and would collect any information or spin any form of rumored info to help them fire an employee.
Due to the stress of constantly dealing with aggressive customers and management/their practices, most of us had developed alcoholism to cope with everyday work. What was a passion of ours became a sickness.
During my last year of being in the wine industry, we would see one to two people fired almost weekly and we were almost always under some form of influence to get through the day.
Even in the fancy places, customers try to pull anything and everything to get their way. Sorry for the long rant.

The only theory I have on why people treat us like this is probably because of a power complex: "this person serves me, therefore they are beneath me."
If someone is doing a job you don't wanna do, they deserve respect IMO.
“discriminated as a man” lmao ok

as someone who worked in a Wendy's a year ago, I was running the front by myself. We only had about 2 people making the food and I let everyone know that their food orders were gonna be a bit longer than expected. Only a few people understood, the rest didnt. They were yelling left and right and threatening us if we didn't work fast enough. Me and another coworker had a bad panic attack and had to hide in the back to calm down. I quit after a few days due to the nonsense human beings act when it comes to food, so a little notice to anyone starting their first job, be very cautious about looking into the fast food industry. And if you suffer from bad anxiety, I don't recommend working these kinds of jobs, it's way and I mean WAY too stressful.
As someone who has major anxiety and worked for the fast food industry for 2 1/2 years. I don’t regret it, I have grown and learned a lot of skills. Sure nothing is fuckin perfect since people can be major asshats.. I made some really good memories and perspective. Good job for trying!! Some people don’t even last a day/week.
That's why it's good experience as well as incentive to become qualified for better work. It is amazing how horrible some people can be to others tho, and people who demean food service workers are just absolute losers for sure
thank you for this advice, i was thinking of applying to mcdonalds but now im having second thoughts
@@illbeokay45sos try it out, you won't be worse for the experience. Very valuable to experience what you don't want to be doing long term
believe it or not Wendy's is the most popular place for heroin addicts because they are clean no im not a addict just know a few
I worked at a McDonald's when I was in high-school where I got called racial slurs, people throwing their food/drink at me for not getting the order right, fully grown men cussing me out because I told them they're gonna have to wait 10 minuets for their order to get done, customer service really sucks. No wonder no one wants to work 11 $ an hour to get screamed at by people 3x their age. My heart goes out to thoes who are kind to service workers, bless yall
I hated the condescending attitude of high school teachers and shitbag restaurant managers. Like you, I was tired of getting yelled at by grown men and women with fragile egos and low tempers. I enlisted in the Marine Corps to escape it. Boy was I stupid for that.
@@Pepe-ts9ec are you still a marine, thank you for your service, regardless i’d never throw myself in for this dumb country
@@dream8870 - Unfortunately i’m still active duty. 0311 Infantry Rifleman and 8156 Marine Security Guard. Couple years left and then i’m out. And when I leave, God knows i’ll never look back. Thanks for your support. Make sure you make the most out of your life. Time and opportunity are precious.
Bro 11 dollars an hour? I'm at macdonald and I get 7 an hour
It's crazy how Charlie can make a video where he basically talks about nothing for 8 minutes and gets 1.4 million views in the first day.
As a fast food worker, I am grateful that none of this has ever happened to me or anyone else that I work with. The customers we usually get are understanding and kind, and we never have any outbreaks like what happened here.
