Today, my 45-year-old child of a mother made such a dramatic scene over finding a hair in her food that the initially apologetic owners ended up kicking my family out. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to my favorite restaurant with my mother. The food took a little longer than usual to arrive and my mom threw a fit, complete with kicking and screaming, in the middle of the restaurant. My mom and I are both banned for life. FML
Today, while at a restaurant, I watched in horror as my daughter picked a hair out of her food and continued eating it. FML
Today, I found a curly hair in my fries at a restaurant. It was disgusting, so I screamed at my waiter. To my surprise, they kicked me out of the restaurant for, "making a scene". They wouldn’t even replace my fries. When did the customer stop being right? FML
Today, one of the human-shaped piles of shit my restaurant serves found a hair in her food. Normally, these fuckwits piss and moan and demand free food, but this sack of filth turned out to be such a drama queen that she puked all over the table and cried so hard she needed an ambulance. FML
Today, I work at a food joint as a chef, and a customer found a long strand of hair in her food. The manager blamed me, even though I'm bald. FML
Today, I was dining out with friends. I saw a mom instructing her young child to go to empty tables and take whatever cash had been left. I discreetly told the manager. He confronted the woman and pointed right at me. As she was being thrown out, she tossed a very heavy mug at my head. It hit me. FML
Today, working at a fast food restaurant, I saw a woman in her late thirties pull out some hair and put it in her food, then threaten to sue me and the restaurant. She also told me no one would believe me, a teenager, when I told her I saw her put it there. FML
Today, my kids and I went to have dinner with a coworker. After everyone ate, the kids went to play while I helped clear the dishes. To my horror, instead of individually wrapping the kids leftovers, she scraped all the uneaten food back into the main pots. I wanted to puke on the spot. FML
Today, my mother threw an egg at my face with force because I returned home 5 minutes late to dinner. FML
Today, at the restaurant I work at, my own mom refused to give a tip and complained to my boss. FML

I still don't understand why people go so crazy over a stray hair in their food. Hair gets on everything. It's hardly the pandemic apocalyptic plague of epic proportions people make it out to be. It's probably the least deadly thing on your plate. Unless it's short and curly and the entire kitchen staff is bald. Then you are entitled to flip your shit.

Tell her to calm down just a hair.

She can make a little fuss. But I guess she took the piss, hence being thrown out. Sorry OP, some mothers can be over the top.

Imagine how great of a mother in law she's going to be.

Agreed, the other day I found a piece of plastic in my food and all I did was warn the staff to check if something in the kitchen was broken so they could make sure that more bits didn't fall in other people's food. Working with food myself I understand that occasionally these things happen and people make mistakes. It's not like I choked on it so why make a huge deal?

They really just want a free meal.

And it could have been HER hair. It likely wasn't if she made such a big deal over it, but I know my hair gets everywhere, especially in my food. (and other peoples... whoops) It shouldn't really be that big of a deal if a hair gets in your food. Pluck it out. If it's a big deal for you then get rid of the part the hair touched. It won't kill you.

You don't know how hygienic this person is. They might have lice or something. If there's hair in the food, remake the dish.

#10 is right. People pull stunts like this all the time to try and get free stuff. It's disgusting. I'm more than happy not to have the business of people like that.

I agree remake the dish, but as the customer you have no right to lose your shit or get a free meal for it. Honestly, be a decent person and quietly address the issue with the staff. Either that or go somewhere else. Trust me, after working 10 years in restaurants, we couldn't care one iota less about losing one customer.
