Today, I placed an order at a fast food joint, when the elderly lady behind me cussed me out for ordering the same thing she wanted. She ranted that I was a "dirty thief", while everyone else glared at me as if I was holding up the line. What the fuck? FML

Same thing different taste

Today, my mom was "that" customer at the local drive-thru. She slipped into attention whore mode and bitched the guy out for not giving us extra fries. He said she didn't ask for any, which was true. Instead of apologizing, she swore at him and floored the gas, sending our drinks spilling all over me. FML

Strung out

Today, I was at work as a cashier. An old lady unbagged everything I had, and angrily "taught" me how to bag. She put potatoes on her eggs and broke them. She then screamed that I was useless and retarded in front of all my other customers and manager. FML

Preemptive strike

Today, after ordering at a restaurant, the waitress suddenly began acting like a bitch to me, for no apparent reason. I later found out why: most people who order that particular meal tend to argue and whine about the price. I wasn’t going to. FML

Today, when making a delivery for the restaurant I work for, a customer shoved and yelled at me because she didn't get any fries with her order. She didn't order any, which isn't unusual, considering we're a Chinese takeaway and don't even sell them. FML

Today, I was waiting in line while a lady paid for her shopping, when her credit card got declined. She started ranting and insulting everyone and kept insisting: "I'm not poor!" By the time the lady had finally stormed off, I had spittle on my face, and the cashier was almost in tears. FML

Today, a lady cussed me out for not bringing her salad and pizza to her table. She then wanted her money back. I work at a buffet; a self-serve buffet. FML

Today, while bagging my groceries at a store, a lady came over to me, took a good look at the food I'd bought, picked out an item and put it in her bag. When I confronted her, she called security on me and told them I wanted to steal her stuff. I got thrown out and she walked away with a smirk. FML

Today, while working the drive-thru at work, an older woman asked for my phone number to give to her single son. After I politely declined, she called me a slut and threw her food at me through the window before promptly speeding off. FML

Wow 33 you handled that a lot different than I would have. I actually would knock my friend out if he acted any way like that and took my food. I'm just the type of person that hates when people try to say they're right without listening to reason.

I said YDI because who cares what that obviously demented old gal thinks!?! The same goes for the other customers! The more I type, the less sense your story makes.

Actually, the more you type, the more idiotic you sound. You can't call OP a faker because something like that hasn't happened to you. The whole point of this site is to share strange occurrences that most other people do not experience themselves. That old lady could have had a number of problems. A lot of elderly people just tend to fall apart as they age. As for the rest of the crowd, you yourself just demonstrated how idiotic people can be when they don't know enough about a situation. To top it off, they're hungry. Hungry people tend to be quite cranky. Nobody deserves to be yelled at by a crazy old lady because they ordered the same meal, and then get glared at by a bunch of people who probably only heard the old lady call OP a thief and then jumped to the conclusion that OP had done something wrong and was therefore holding up the line as a result. I apologize for the rant, but I am really getting sick of people squealing about things being fake because nothing similar has happened to them.
