Eating Out

I was watching a video of people freaking out on workers at food places.
I've seen so many people show their ass in public, and it worries me.
So many people have serious issues xD
People say "Well, racism/prejudice exists!" but I consider flipping out and being aggressive and sometimes violent NOT NORMAL.
I don't think it's normal to attack random people.
Anyways, in the video, the guy said "When fast food places get your order wrong and you want to attack them because it pisses you off but you have control."

I've never gotten the wrong order and felt legit angry.
I get a little annoyed because it was wrong and I'm hungry, but mistakes happen and people are usually nice when I've taken it back.
I usually say "Um, y-you gave me the wrong o-order...!" and they'll say sorry and give me something else and all is fine.
I don't see why people have to be so aggressive. Also, don't piss people off that make your food xD

This one guy pulled up to a window and was yelling at the worker and demanded free food because he had a bad day and lost his job and blah blah blah.
I don't know if it was real because people fake so much, but that was horrible.
That worker didn't do anything to him, he didn't deserve to get verbally attacked.
I've had bad days and have snapped at people and it was wrong.
I don't care if someone has a bad day, you don't take it out on others that didn't do anything >__>


My dad's ex used to say "Some people shouldn't be allowed out in public!"


Have you ever been out to eat and seen someone acting out?

Amazingly not
Dad and I did stop at the local KFC once, no one was up front cuz it was literally one guy and his manager and apparently there'd been a spill that they were working on cleaning up, so it was about thirty seconds before one of them came up front. We ended up getting our food something like half off, even though we both pointed out to both the worker and the manager that we hadn't been there for very long, so it wasn't a problem at all

But we don't eat out much, between vastly different schedules and money being needed elsewhere

Then there was the time we were at Bob Evans and I mentioned in passing that the biscuits were a bit overcooked. Still edible, just been in the oven a few minutes too long. Mom realized then that her fries had been the same, a bit overcooked. The manager at the register was freaking out cuz it was mentioned very literally in passing. It wasn't enough to reorder, it certainly wasn't burnt
I think her fries got taken off the final price

And the time at Denny's where they nearly (as in the waitress caught it) sent out the wrong type of eggs. Oops. So I just had to wait a few minutes longer to eat

But if I'm being an ass to one, they'd started it

>XD
Oh noes the biscuits and fries were a little overdone :U
Better a little overcooked than undercooked xD

I've gotten fries that had no salt on them at all.
Doesn't work the same if you add it yourself <<

It didn't ruin the meal, which is why I wasn't concerned about it

I'm very passive about getting wrong orders or bad food.
Worst was one time we got cheese burgers and it was just the buns.
I think we were in a bit of shock about it.
Another time we saw our server three times.
To seat us, to get our orders/drop off drinks, and then to give us our food.
The place was almost dead empty except one other table.
We had to hunt her down for our recite.
That place closed soon after that.

Ooh, we had a waitress ignore mom and me at a friendlys once
I didn't notice, but mom did. Pretty much we were ignored from when I took off my hat to when I put it back on
I was going through chemo at the time, so what hair is did have was sparse and very wispy and she couldn't handle it
Mom saw the manager of the store and told him. Turned out that said girl was all sorts of trouble, and ignoring the table with a cancer patient was another one to the list. Dunno if it was the straw that broke the camel's back or not tho, cuz we haven't been to any since. There's none near us, and it wasn't super near the hospital either
But seriously wtf just cuz I had the hair of a cancer patient doesn't mean you can tweak out and ignore us

On a funnier note dad and I went to a DQ and I got a dog and shake. Tipped the tray, spilled the shake, lost a third of it. Let the guy know that I'd spilled it, didn't ask for a replacement but I got one in a soda cup, which had dad and me laughing
This was after dad walked in and I went "hey dad it doesn't open until noon" and the guy went "nah, I'm here it's open"
That was the day I was officially declared to be in remission, too
But soda cup and cover instead of the more open milkshake one was smart. Plus more milkshake, even tho I didn't ask :')

That's nice he gave you more.
And I'm glad your in remission.
Having friends who have gone through that and lost their lives it is nice to hear when someone wins their battle

Buns and no meat u8
I know the struggle is real but DAMN.
I've never had that happen, but I did ask for a burger with no meat when I was a kid xD


We've had waiters and waitresses that didn't come by much, but I think it was usually busy where we were.
Most of the time they're very nice and helpful.
I remember because my dad always leaves a tip for them.
When I was little, he taught me that if they do a good job, to always tip if I can.
But some can be a little too helpful 8u
I've had them ask several times if everything was fine and they sometimes come out of nowhere and scare the hell out of me xD

>__>
If a waiter or waitress were to ignore me and someone I love because they had cancer, I'd likely do more than just tell the manager xD
I can be passive about most things, but not things like that.
Your mom has good restraint >>

That is awesome of him.
Some people can be really nice.
I know we sometimes get free fries if we have to wait to get food.
I've also been given a giant cup instead of a medium a couple of times.
They just gave it to me and didn't charge for it and said it was fine 8,u
