Yeah, but sometimes yall take out earlier interactions on the wrong customers. Yall aren't all sunshine and rainbows yourself. I mean you all expect customers to pay your salary by tipping instead of having your job pay you.
The cultural norm should be treating people with respect. I don’t know if it should be telling people off. We have a lot of that going around with Vaccination status and masks mandates. We aren’t better for it.

@@YesYourRight how do you know she didn’t try to deescalate the situation? I’m sure she did and the customer was unreasonable. Meaning it’s time to “leave”. I’m sure she has better sobriety then most of us do. Stop it. If she gets fired that’s okay… find a new job. 👍🏽

We need to call out all this rude behavior. I was Djing for kids and I had young lady who kept heckling me for not playing what she wanted. I shut the Music off and told the kids I wouldn’t play any music if they were going to continue to be rude. And all the parents and teachers applauded and cheered. There’s just so much entitlement and rudeness now a days.
@@Baller4Life1 It helps teach kids to hold each other accountable for their actions. If you don't teach them to do that, you teach them to ignore problem behaviors, and no one will ever be corrected.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Good for her, because so many people have a ridiculous mindset of thinking that they can be as obnoxious as they want, especially to those that work with the public!!!
@@boytoyowo238 If they have a behavior like that customer, then the right to be respected goes down. But he still deserve the respect that a human should get; it doesn't mean that others can just smack him in the face or step on his back or continuously insulted for months to come. Chasing him out of the restaurant is the right thing to do. You get me?
A hero is a person that rescues or saves someone’s life. For example our neighbors house caught on fire and they thought the little girl was out but she was In trying to look for her glasses and teddy bear but her dad went in the house and saved her. They all made it out. Their cat sadly died in the fire.
Good for her! I remember back in the late 80's when I was working as a server in a small town pub to pay for my schooling, these old-timers would grab or slap my butt every time I brought their drinks to them. I told them if they did it again they'd be wearing their drinks! But the owner of the pub told me that I had to put up with it because they were regulars. I quit 2 weeks later. This would be considered a crime these days. Thank goodness. But back then it was perfectly acceptable and staff were expected to take whatever was handed to them for the sake of making a buck. This video proves we've made some progress. Let's make some more!
As someone who works in customer service I really admire her. People need to understand that the customer is not always right and that allowing ourselves to be a doormat is not our job.
Nobody is less human in a diner. Period. Nobody works for you, only everyone is here to serve you food cause thats what a diner is for so respect that or get out. Period.
I get that only like two people clapped lol but she still confronted the man and got him out of there for being so disrespectful. Just because she’s waitress doesn’t mean you get to treat her (or anyone for that matter) this way. They’re forced to treat everyone with a smile, but they’re people too and they deserve to be treated with respect.
Another piece of idiocy from corporate America: “The customer is always right.” This country is so entitled people believe you can treat those in the service industry like indentured servants. Nothing pleases me more than to watch some Karen or Chad getting it thrown back in his/her face. Employers need to defend the people working for them more often. If they’ve learned anything from the “Great Resignation”, it should be their people need to be treated humanely, not as some replaceable rubber gasket in a machine. You tell ‘em, Girl!
When I was a waitress we had someone that we kicked out for similar behavior and on the way out she told me and I quote "your working customer service it's your job to just take it"
They left it out because it’s baseless slander. He could sue if they say that he’s a pedophile. Honestly that’s where the waitress lost me. Tell him to leave and call the cops. Don’t stand there and make baseless accusations to fuel your own ego and make you look better in front of everyone. She should be fired.
They never were. The full phrase is supposed to be "The customer is always right IN MATTERS OF TASTE." It's just another example of people cherry picking what they want to hear so they can use the rest of abuse people.
I've worked in restaurants for many many years and it really truly surprises me just how rude and demanding customers can be. It's like they forget who's preparing their food. Don't bite the hand that feeds you.
Can kind of tell by his posture that he's one of those fake "just telling it like it is" types, who wasn't expecting to run into somebody who _actually_ does that. Jerkwad: "I ordered coffee, I'm a customer; you're supposed to put up with me. Just telling the truth." Waitress: "You're not wanted here!" Jerkwad's brain: --- BEEP BEEP BEEP --- _The number you have dialed is out of service, please check the number and dial again._
Fair play to her. Did my time working at a golf course. The top management was absolutely spineless whenever there was an abusive customer. They valued making a few quid off of them more than their staff safety.
I can totally understand her snapping like this. I don’t know what’s been going on lately, but the entitlement and lack of empathy from customers has been other worldly lately. There’s only so much verbal abuse and attitude you can take before you lose it on That One Guy. Hats off to her for doing the one thing every customer service rep wants to.
I applaud her I was a waitress for 25 years on long island We had to put up with rude customers rude cooks and rude owners not to mention sexual harassment Good for you

If you let strangers hurt your feelings you have a multitude of problems that i want nothing to do with. Leave your feelings out of the workplace or go work for yourself. Its all about hiring the correct staff, period.
All my life working as a waiter ,Host, Manager,General Manager and executive so many rude customers but also so many sweet and caring people. I love that this lady stood for her rights!
The customer is not always right. Glad to see that a waitress is being praised for sticking up for herself and others and not losing her job over the situation.
Just because you’re lonely and isolated doesn’t give you the right to go to stores and restaurants and say/do whatever you want to the employees. If you can’t bring your best behavior and kindness, stay at home.
I remember a time I went out to dinner with my dad for some father/daughter bonding time. We went to my favorite restaurant and the service wasn't the greatest. The waitress wasn't being lazy or rude, it was just really busy and they were short-staffed. The waitress was constantly apologizing for the delay of service, and I was telling it was okay just do your best. But dad was steadily getting angrier because we were there for way longer than he intended. I could tell the poor girl was scared of my dad because he kept glaring at her and made some rude remarks. Dad only paid the bill and refused to give a tip saying she didn't deserve it, and stormed out. I was beyond embarrassed; I not only gave her a huge tip, but also apologized for his behavior. On the way back home I lectured him about having manners and how he embarrassed me in front of everyone. If a man, who was almost 60 at the time, has to be scolded by his then teenage daughter about having manners, what does that say about him? Thankfully, my dad had gotten the message, because it didn't happen again.
it shows u were out of place is what it shows. respect your elders and their decisions. He very well may have had more information about the situation THAN YOU. You were an age were you merely thought u knew it all, but you didnt.
There needs to be a policy to were any rude customers should be kicked out if they treat staff or customers poorly. Every business needs this. This is one of the reasons why people been quitting their jobs.
The manager's should deal with it properly. And protect their employees. That's their job. And they should be well trained to take care of these difficult situation.
I work at a bubble tea shop in a mall and the amount of rude customers is astonishing. If the customer is being unnecessarily rude to any of my coworkers or I and they haven’t paid yet, I don’t hesitate to tell them to leave the store, like we don’t need that type of negativity in my store. I love their reaction when I kick them out bc they can’t say or do anything, we always have security nearby so if they cause a scene I usually just call the security over
Remembering back in the day the phrase "the customer's always right." These days, however, some ignorant people think they can treat hard working people however they want. Good for her!
The customer is not always right. As a former server/bartender of 50 years, there has been several times I would have loved to tell some people to hit the door. That young lady is my hero! 👍🏻
Even in the lodging industry. Guests checked in a budget motel, gets into the room, the room is not what they expected, then calls the Front Desk and yelled at the people there. If I were at the Front Desk, "Sir, you got what you paid for." 🤣🤣🤣
Ahhh. I’ve never seen this at Starbucks but I mainly just go to their drive thru’s. I will say it’s weird they have so many rude customers for a place that seems to have such friendly staff. I go to them all over and only once experienced a whatever-ish barista.

@@YesYourRight Don't act like an ass and you won't get treated like one. Simple. Also it's interesting that you'd try and turn this around to blame the waitress when the man's behaviour caused all the trouble in the first place.
Conveniently the guy being rude was not on tape and they didn't tell us what he said to be considered rude not saying he was right is that there's two sides to a story .
I can’t imagine having the gall to be rude to anyone serving you in a public restaurant. You gotta be a really sad person to try and belittle a waiter/server/retail employee in front of others.
I never understood people like this. You don't mess with people who make your food. If this guy was a "semi regular", and was continuously rude. I would expect nothing less than a spit wad in his food. Which he must enjoy the taste of I guess
Spitting in peoples food is something I can’t even think about because it’s so disgusting. I could never do that no matter how awful the customer is. But most of all ITS A SAFETY HAZARD!!! It can be serious with the germs out there
This is why I always show respect to waiters/waitresses. Greet them when you come in, say "please", say "thank you" when they bring you a refill, and wish them well on your way out. They have enough to go through, and the simplest gesture of kindness can make their entire day better.
There was a lot of rude people in restaurants here last summer during the whole covid thing. Restaurants had people out that were afraid of getting it so they hired who they could with little experience. I heard a few stories where the restaurant owner actually tossed people out for being so rude to the wait staff. A friend who had the same waitress actually tipped her more because she was trying so hard but the rude customer brought her to tears
Well, I imagine laying people off, forcing people to wear masks, and the tremendous amount of fear mongering on the news didn't (and still doesn't) help.
It’s about time that a worker is applauded for not taking disrespect instead of being fired on the spot. Employers take notes.

This is exactly how I think. You could be the worst server in the world and I’m still gonna be nice cause I know what happens to rude customer’s food.
This is so true
@@anthonym3020 that's so true, I bet that customer as eaten some nasty food in the past without knowing it, Flem' being the most I suspect 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Those people who think “the customer is always right” have never worked at a customer service job.
As someone who works in customer service, I applaud her 👏
Dealing with the public is absolutely one of the hardest jobs ever. I'm older and my patience is thinner than when I was younger. I applaud all you people who work under this stress! God bless you and give you strength daily!

It gets annoying when a regular customer who's always rude comes by. I know that by experience.
Don't work in customer service?
I don’t put up with it..no way will I be treated with disrespect. And if they choose to fire me, I really don’t care.
NEVER mess with a career waitress, they could work most of us into the ground.
lol
Yeah right. What do they do? Hand customers there food lmao
@@emily9296lol better then being a street walker like yourself
@@emily9296 You think handing people their food is "all waitresses do"? 🙄 Go be a waitress for awhile, and then come back and tell us how it went, lmao. 😂 I've been a waitress for 27 years.
@@emily9296 lol..Hand customers "Their" food, yes they do, it's called employment and if you've ever eaten out anywhere those people usually work their asses off.
Everybody needs to remember that the waitress is the one bringing your food and taking your order so show them respect
One of my life mottos is “never screw with the person who handles your food”.
@@Daddy53751 ikr ..or we'll get extra special gooey sauce as compliment 😁
@@babyteano1977 What if that's what he wanted though? She didn't delivered.
@Rik Mehta what
Right? She could be like that one fat waitress off road trip and put his food in her pants before giving it to him
I put up with this for years, a lot of the time being threatened to be stabbed.
I left hospitality after 13 years when my mental health caused issues and it was the best decision I’ve ever made
I worked in fast food back in 82 my junior year of high school. I was a cook and one thing I learned is you cannot please some people no matter how hard you try. I applaud this woman for standing up to this rude customer!
I was a 2 year old in 1982. I was busy playing and being a toddler
@@MelB868 lol
"The customer is always right," only applies to the polite and civilized. Good on her for putting this jackass in his place.
Exactly
No, this guy actually did the right thing lol
Nah man he was just eating
“Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me” leave the guy alone man and let him eat his food . She was the one who instigated talking rude to him when he asked for his order.
When was the last time that slogan was use though? Companies don't preach that anymore.
Good for her. Let's normalize allowing employees to stick up for themselves when they get treated badly
Damn straight 🥰🥰🥰👏👏👏👏
Damn, she should be fired. Should never talk to a customer like that while working. She could’ve easily D escalated The situation had the guy trust passed so you wouldn’t have to worry about it again. And that would’ve handled it in a calm manner and not of made a scene and gotten everybody else involved. Now you run the risk of you embarrassing this guy it being plastered all over the media and him coming back and shooting the place or yourself up. She’s very ignorant and cannot control her emotions whatsoever.
Except when they refuse the jab!!!🤡
@Harris Biden Nah, kick him and out and put a picture of that clown in front of the store.
@Harris Biden bozo
I did the same thing 20 years ago. Got a standing ovation from the whole restaurant. Stand up servers!
Sad thing is a lot of places would probably fire someone for speaking to a customer like this. I'm glad the internet backs this waitress up!

What did the guy do? The video doesn't show it, none of the witnesses recount it, and the server can only quote one single word. People who can think for them selves might ask if she escalated this?
@@YesYourRight how do you know she didn’t try to deescalate the situation? I’m sure she did and the customer was unreasonable. Meaning it’s time to “leave”. I’m sure she has better sobriety then most of us do. Stop it. If she gets fired that’s okay… find a new job. 👍🏽
@@marquiezjennings9134 how do you know he was even being rude in the first place???? nowhere in the video do you hear him say anything rude. And by all mean maybe she did try to D escalate that doesn’t mean you snoop down to their level you simply call the cops if they won’t leave and have them trespassed from the property you don’t snoop down to their level.
And her boss!!!
We need to call out all this rude behavior. I was Djing for kids and I had young lady who kept heckling me for not playing what she wanted. I shut the Music off and told the kids I wouldn’t play any music if they were going to continue to be rude. And all the parents and teachers applauded and cheered. There’s just so much entitlement and rudeness now a days.
You should’ve told her if only she was doing it. If you were djing for kids, then don’t blame all for one’s actions
@@Baller4Life1 It helps teach kids to hold each other accountable for their actions. If you don't teach them to do that, you teach them to ignore problem behaviors, and no one will ever be corrected.
@@Drux.i positive peer pressure is a good thing.

Customer is right
@@taurus9240 nope
Not every human deserves respect thats gotta be earned.
@@boytoyowo238 If they have a behavior like that customer, then the right to be respected goes down. But he still deserve the respect that a human should get; it doesn't mean that others can just smack him in the face or step on his back or continuously insulted for months to come. Chasing him out of the restaurant is the right thing to do. You get me?
@@taurus9240 Nope, that is an old saying that is no longer true.
I used to be a waiter. The way people treat you is mind boggling. The most unrewarding job you can ever have.
Arent you glad ypu upt four game?
I was a waitress for years, she’s our example and a hero!
A hero is a person that rescues or saves someone’s life. For example our neighbors house caught on fire and they thought the little girl was out but she was In trying to look for her glasses and teddy bear but her dad went in the house and saved her. They all made it out. Their cat sadly died in the fire.
@@MelB868 yeah
She even said it herself that she isn’t a hero. Quit blowing the word out of proportion.
@@Noface678 ofc not all "heroes" want to really show off and she just wanted to relieve herself.
“Hero”
Good for her! I remember back in the late 80's when I was working as a server in a small town pub to pay for my schooling, these old-timers would grab or slap my butt every time I brought their drinks to them. I told them if they did it again they'd be wearing their drinks! But the owner of the pub told me that I had to put up with it because they were regulars. I quit 2 weeks later. This would be considered a crime these days. Thank goodness. But back then it was perfectly acceptable and staff were expected to take whatever was handed to them for the sake of making a buck. This video proves we've made some progress. Let's make some more!
As someone who works in customer service I really admire her. People need to understand that the customer is not always right and that allowing ourselves to be a doormat is not our job.
Yeah kick them out.. You can refuse service to anyone for being rude AF.
Nobody is less human in a diner. Period. Nobody works for you, only everyone is here to serve you food cause thats what a diner is for so respect that or get out. Period.
They didn't even tell us what the dispute was about. Poor reporting.
"The diner erupted in applause!"
Only like 2 or 3 people clapped lmao
all big eruption started with a small one
And the crowd goes mild!
I get that only like two people clapped lol but she still confronted the man and got him out of there for being so disrespectful. Just because she’s waitress doesn’t mean you get to treat her (or anyone for that matter) this way. They’re forced to treat everyone with a smile, but they’re people too and they deserve to be treated with respect.
I agree!
"erupted"
“I wouldn’t say I’m a hero, I would say I’m a mother” Respect!

@@haylobos8261 is that a good thing or a bad thing?

There is no video of him being rude.. or any real explantion of what he did...... Everyone is just happy for viral content.
Another piece of idiocy from corporate America: “The customer is always right.” This country is so entitled people believe you can treat those in the service industry like indentured servants. Nothing pleases me more than to watch some Karen or Chad getting it thrown back in his/her face. Employers need to defend the people working for them more often. If they’ve learned anything from the “Great Resignation”, it should be their people need to be treated humanely, not as some replaceable rubber gasket in a machine. You tell ‘em, Girl!
Well I mean customers right to a certain point
@Clive J Pike Ok... Darren, then. You catch my drift.
@@michaelmccauley648 Kevin is also another name for the "guy" Karens, haha.
Karen’s my bestie. Love her so much.
When I was a waitress we had someone that we kicked out for similar behavior and on the way out she told me and I quote "your working customer service it's your job to just take it"
It shouldn’t be “gutsy” to defend yourself. Good for her
Unfortunately it is in a world where you can get fired for it. You're expected to just take it and that's not right.
Kind of upsets me that they left out the fact this guy was also looking at underaged girls, disgusting.
where did you hear that?
Oh, see, this is what I am saying, not all the info is exposed on this vid, :>(
@@binghamguevara6814 thanks for telling me
They left it out because it’s baseless slander. He could sue if they say that he’s a pedophile. Honestly that’s where the waitress lost me. Tell him to leave and call the cops. Don’t stand there and make baseless accusations to fuel your own ego and make you look better in front of everyone. She should be fired.
Kinda like our current prez......
Kudos on this waitress for standing up not only for herself, but all waitresses in America. As well as the world over!
"The customer is always right"
Not anymore.
Never has been
@@darntootin897 thank you😉
They never were. The full phrase is supposed to be "The customer is always right IN MATTERS OF TASTE." It's just another example of people cherry picking what they want to hear so they can use the rest of abuse people.
I've worked in restaurants for many many years and it really truly surprises me just how rude and demanding customers can be. It's like they forget who's preparing their food. Don't bite the hand that feeds you.
Can kind of tell by his posture that he's one of those fake "just telling it like it is" types, who wasn't expecting to run into somebody who _actually_ does that.
Jerkwad: "I ordered coffee, I'm a customer; you're supposed to put up with me. Just telling the truth."
Waitress: "You're not wanted here!"
Jerkwad's brain: --- BEEP BEEP BEEP --- _The number you have dialed is out of service, please check the number and dial again._
Fair play to her.
Did my time working at a golf course. The top management was absolutely spineless whenever there was an abusive customer. They valued making a few quid off of them more than their staff safety.
I can totally understand her snapping like this. I don’t know what’s been going on lately, but the entitlement and lack of empathy from customers has been other worldly lately. There’s only so much verbal abuse and attitude you can take before you lose it on That One Guy. Hats off to her for doing the one thing every customer service rep wants to.
I applaud her I was a waitress for 25 years on long island We had to put up with rude customers rude cooks and rude owners not to mention sexual harassment Good for you
The diner “erupted” in applause.
Literally, one person clapping.
I love her ❤ She is so brave. You push someone to their wits end and you will get the same energy.
ALL retail workers, waiters and other public service people should have the right to stand up for themselves without any consequences.

@@damianocaniglia2489 14 now. 8 which deal with the public. I love every one of my employees but they know the customer comes first. My employees know that their "feelings" being hurt is not enough to "stand up for yourself".

If you let strangers hurt your feelings you have a multitude of problems that i want nothing to do with. Leave your feelings out of the workplace or go work for yourself. Its all about hiring the correct staff, period.
All my life working as a waiter ,Host, Manager,General Manager and executive so many rude customers but also so many sweet and caring people. I love that this lady stood for her rights!
I just hope she was backed by her manager or management??🤞

The customer is not always right. Glad to see that a waitress is being praised for sticking up for herself and others and not losing her job over the situation.
The customer is usually wrong!
The best managers allow their employees kick out bad people.
Not where I work at unfortunately
Just because you’re lonely and isolated doesn’t give you the right to go to stores and restaurants and say/do whatever you want to the employees. If you can’t bring your best behavior and kindness, stay at home.
Well said, it costs nothing to be kind.
How ironic coming from a Karen🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Okay Karen
Oh, it has nothing to do with being lonely and isolated. So, you just made no point, Karen. So, your comment is irrelevant.
I'm genuinely sorry that people actually think that because your name is Karen that you have to be wrong about everything.
Just because someone is a customer, doesn’t mean they can be disrespectful to employees. Respect is a two way street.
I remember a time I went out to dinner with my dad for some father/daughter bonding time. We went to my favorite restaurant and the service wasn't the greatest. The waitress wasn't being lazy or rude, it was just really busy and they were short-staffed. The waitress was constantly apologizing for the delay of service, and I was telling it was okay just do your best. But dad was steadily getting angrier because we were there for way longer than he intended. I could tell the poor girl was scared of my dad because he kept glaring at her and made some rude remarks. Dad only paid the bill and refused to give a tip saying she didn't deserve it, and stormed out. I was beyond embarrassed; I not only gave her a huge tip, but also apologized for his behavior. On the way back home I lectured him about having manners and how he embarrassed me in front of everyone.
If a man, who was almost 60 at the time, has to be scolded by his then teenage daughter about having manners, what does that say about him? Thankfully, my dad had gotten the message, because it didn't happen again.
Haha I love this, good on you!
I find that older men get grumpy easily. Is it the loss of testosterone or they feel not needed anymore?
Well done you!
Give the grouch a little credit, he helped raise a kind young Lady....Us old Dads, aren't really that bad.
it shows u were out of place is what it shows. respect your elders and their decisions. He very well may have had more information about the situation THAN YOU. You were an age were you merely thought u knew it all, but you didnt.
There needs to be a policy to were any rude customers should be kicked out if they treat staff or customers poorly. Every business needs this. This is one of the reasons why people been quitting their jobs.
I tried this and got fired.
@@Ms9mmBeretta so did I and I don't regret it.

Damn! I just commented the same thing!
🤣 I was thinking the same thing
this is only telling one side of the story..as a former waiter..i want proof the guy was rude
it shouldn't be considered gutsy for a server to have the small bit of courage to clap back, this should be normalized
And people wonder why there’s a labor shortage. Overworked, mistreated, unappreciated, and underpaid. What happened to being “essential”
I work at a bubble tea shop in a mall and the amount of rude customers is astonishing. If the customer is being unnecessarily rude to any of my coworkers or I and they haven’t paid yet, I don’t hesitate to tell them to leave the store, like we don’t need that type of negativity in my store. I love their reaction when I kick them out bc they can’t say or do anything, we always have security nearby so if they cause a scene I usually just call the security over
“I wouldn’t say I’m a hero”
Good.
Remembering back in the day the phrase "the customer's always right." These days, however, some ignorant people think they can treat hard working people however they want. Good for her!

That’s the bravest waitress I’ve ever seen. 15 years is amazing. But she did a fantastic job kicking the man out of the diner . Way to go waitress .

Wish Starbucks would start doing this. The way their spoiled entitled brat customers treat the employees makes me sick.
That’s all food and beverage industry; especially nowadays…it’s getting worse and worse…
Even in the lodging industry. Guests checked in a budget motel, gets into the room, the room is not what they expected, then calls the Front Desk and yelled at the people there. If I were at the Front Desk, "Sir, you got what you paid for." 🤣🤣🤣
I'll tell another customer they're being rude. Idgaf.
Why I stopped going in there.
Ahhh. I’ve never seen this at Starbucks but I mainly just go to their drive thru’s. I will say it’s weird they have so many rude customers for a place that seems to have such friendly staff. I go to them all over and only once experienced a whatever-ish barista.
As a cashier who has been flirted with twice today by creepy old men, I was rooting for her!
She has inspired the other waitresses to realize they DON'T have to "take it with a smile"
This is fantastic! These people need to be taught the hard way that they can’t just behave however they want in public!

Bravo. I have seen extremely disrespectful and rude old people and children and no boundaries at all. Scary stuff.

What amazes me the most is this actually made the news.
I agree. WTF am I missing here???
Conveniently the guy being rude was not on tape and they didn't tell us what he said to be considered rude not saying he was right is that there's two sides to a story .
hell yeah i’m glad she wasn’t fired, she’s been 15 years at that diner!
This lady has a strong brooklyn accent,she can take karens,Chads,Karls and Darrens outta the restaurant
what
And she made sure someone filmed it. You go girl.
I can’t imagine having the gall to be rude to anyone serving you in a public restaurant. You gotta be a really sad person to try and belittle a waiter/server/retail employee in front of others.
It would have been cool if actually showed the damn video without talking in your report
I never understood people like this. You don't mess with people who make your food. If this guy was a "semi regular", and was continuously rude. I would expect nothing less than a spit wad in his food. Which he must enjoy the taste of I guess
Unfortunately, that is considered a form of assault.
Spitting in peoples food is something I can’t even think about because it’s so disgusting. I could never do that no matter how awful the customer is. But most of all ITS A SAFETY HAZARD!!! It can be serious with the germs out there

This is why I always show respect to waiters/waitresses. Greet them when you come in, say "please", say "thank you" when they bring you a refill, and wish them well on your way out. They have enough to go through, and the simplest gesture of kindness can make their entire day better.
Excellent! I used to waitress and people can be so mean, rude and cruel. Love this girl! She did the right thing!

They gotta sell eyeballs and clicks. It’s a ‘whorey’ world we live in sadly.
There was a lot of rude people in restaurants here last summer during the whole covid thing. Restaurants had people out that were afraid of getting it so they hired who they could with little experience. I heard a few stories where the restaurant owner actually tossed people out for being so rude to the wait staff. A friend who had the same waitress actually tipped her more because she was trying so hard but the rude customer brought her to tears
Well, I imagine laying people off, forcing people to wear masks, and the tremendous amount of fear mongering on the news didn't (and still doesn't) help.
