Let's hear your war stories from the front lines of working food service Sup Forumsros. Angry customers, shitty employees, or general bullshit you've had to endure to keep money in your account. Basically, I'd like to order a bullshit sandwich with everything on it
>and extra greentext

I'm a shift leader fag at local DQ and over my three years, I've seen some shit and have got enough stories to bump this thread with all night. To start off, this happened last week

>Normal closing shift and I'm about to change the patio garbage, but see some customers walk in
>working front by myself so I stop to take their order
>obvious meth head mom with baby daddy and accident child approach counter
>they order, methmom asks for sugar on a chili cheese dog
>wtf no
>they finish order and take a seat outside on the patio
>I bring their food out and more customers walk in so I can't change the trash yet
>latenightrushstartup.exe
>after a while i forgot about the trash
>methmom walks in and says she changed them for me
>wtf why? Weren't even full, I just had to change them for closing
>"I... uh gggot bored" said methmom tweeking and scratching
>redflag.png
cont?

Continue, ive worked at DQ before and had to deal with meth heads. Want to see where this goes

Sure. I like these threads. Makes me appreciate food service workers.

>be me
>be cashier

>asks/tells her to not come in the store again unless she has cleaned herself
>she never shows up again
probably could have got at least a hand job off the other cashier except they were both 40 something ham beasts

Meth heads don't eat.

Cont
>methmom flips through big book of different kinds of cakes you can special order while I take orders. Her shitty fam finishing eats
>she's tweeking the fuck out. Muttering and giggling to herself and overall making other customers order to-go instead of sticking around
>I take note of this and tell a couple coworkers to check it out casually
>they get a laugh and go back to work while the rush eventually dies down
>baby dad and accidentbro go to shitty minivan to wait for methmom
>she walks up and asks for a big to-go bag and walks toward the cake freezer

>the prep guy starts packaging the chicken
>ask if he wants any sides with that
>says no
>tell him how much it costs

>asks "was that so hard?"
>tell him that the guy didn't pay and was threatening to kill me

>guy comes in

>business guy comes in again
>manager comes over as I'm talking his order
>pays for his meal
>tells him "we can't seem to serve you without getting complaints from you. please don't come in again."
>never see business guy again

Another one to bump the thread
>dog lady comes into DQ
>you know the type, old bitter hag who wasn't ever attractive enough for even the loneliest man to deliver his seed. She had no kids so she got dogs and treated them like her kids
>pretty much crazy cat lady but a bit worse
>her dog stench was unbearable
>she orders a 4 piece chicken strip basket and a cheeseburger, talking to me like I'm one of her dogs
>"So would you like a drink?"
>"NOOO... NO!" like she might as well be hitting me with a newspaper
>she finishes her order and goes to the patio where she sat her big ass lab on a chair like a hooman
>she feeds the 4 piece to her dog and eats the lone cheeseburger for herself
>lolwut.gif
>she comes back in and the stench makes me almost gag. Like piss and wet dog
>she orders a vanilla cone for her doggo
>aw thats kinda cute except WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU
>dog throws up on the patio and walks in angry, saying the food made her dog sick so it must be bad food
>isthisniggaserious.reactionphoto
>she storms out taking her smellhound with her
>puke on patio, bits of shit on doggo's chair
>she still comes in but only to give dog cones
>I love dogs, but I hate dog lady

That shit happens all the time. Customers complain about corporate decisions thinking somehow I have a hand to play in what goes down in every store across the country.
>WHY DID YOU GET RID OF THE ALL DAY FIVE BUCK LUNCH THIS PLACE SUCKS I'M GOING TO BURGER KING
>TELL YER MANAGER TO PUT IT BACK

>local college football team makes a bowl game
>store is on the parade route
>fairly large city
>I'm working all day
>end up being a half hour late bc can't get through the crowd
>make it just in time for the store to open
>lobby is instantly packed
>stays packed the entire day
>manager had ordered extra stock in anticipation of the parade rush
>becomes apparent we will run out quickly
>calls other stores
>has them bring over everything they won't use that day
>we end up taking most of the inventory from 20 stores
>as I'm closing the manager comes out
>tells us that he is going to clock us out 4 hours after we leave bc we made more money that day than we usually make the entire year
appreciated the thought
but an extra $32 for helping the store make ~$400k is a bit insulting

Whats the pic from a movie? Tec 9 master race wish i could contribute lol

A short one
>fat ham planet of a mom walks in with her chubby autismo kids
>the smell of body odor and unwashed greasy hair wafts my way
>they look like they haven't showered in months
>all employees avoid them at all costs
>i have the balls to take their order
>kids screaming and climbing on the line dividers
>one of them starts going full sperg lord and stands up on line divider and starts making a noise comparable to an air raid siren, while the undiscovered planet in our solar system does nothing to parent
>I say calmly and politely "hey bud, can you not stand on that and get down? You could get really hurt if you fall"
>planet pork starts fliping out and saying how I shouldn't tell her kids how to behave in public yadda yadda
>canIseeyourmanager.exe
>manager writes me up
>tfw written up for caring about child's safety

idk I go it off google and thought it fit the theme pretty well. Looks like a good flick 7/10 would watch

Falling Down

The movie is called "falling down"
Wasn't bad, about some regular guy who just has his life get more crappy as it goes and just stops giving a fuck one day while stuck in traffic

>getting off for the day
>manager comes up to me
>Hey user, I've got a favor to ask.
>customer got take out
>got home
>food was cold
>didn't want refund
>wants us to deliver new meal to her
>even though we don't deliver
>asks if I can drop it off on my way home
>offers to clock me out 2 hours after Ieave
>ask where I need to go
>it is on my route home
>almost next door to my house
>which means it is almost an hours drive away
>tell the manager that the food was cold because it was sitting at room temperature for an hour
>manager thinks about it a second
>agrees that is probably why
>but decides to do it anyway if I'm willing
>agree
could never figure out why the manager did that when he was so ready to ban people for being stupid, see previous posts

Thx

It's from Falling Down with Michael Douglas. Or Martin Sheen I get them confused.

>mfw M believes these assholes over me because customer always right

>I thought for once parents parented
>tfw I was wrong

lol didn't want refund but instead thinks you're pizza hut now and unlike most OP, will deliver

>bad parenting
>mannerless parents
What if this is... idk... a cycle?
>Bad parents=Bad children=Bad manners and the cycle starts again, only with the new motto of the customer gets whatever they want. Let's see this one
>bad parent's bad manners+complaint>employee's good manners+logic+proof+witnesses+good character reputation=unparented kids

thaaaaaaaats fucking rough user, did you ever make it with that grill?

never made it all the way but got some sloppy toppy and it was aaayyy okaaay.

that's what I like to hear user. I actually made it with a coworker once. She was a solid 8/10 latina that I lost my virginity to while watching Hot Fuzz. Shit was cash, long story short, bitches dig ice cream

>child falls
>breaks beak and dies
>company sued for millions

"Why didnt you say anything to the kid, user?"

exactly

I feel like I either get written up because of shitty kids or shitty parents. Nothing else besides accidently thinking i was in a 6pm when I was supposed to be in at 5pm. Those happened a few times
