Today, a customer bitched me out, saying he wouldn't eat his vegetarian dish because it didn't "look vegetarian enough." He then demanded a refund and a plate of the same vegetarian dish. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was reduced to tears and called a "useless fat bitch" by a customer I was serving. She didn’t realize that the steak fajitas she’d ordered had steak in them. She said she was a vegetarian. She failed to mention it, but apparently it was "my fault" because I “should have known." FML
Today, my customer complained to me that there were no scallops in her dish when it was "clearly stated on the menu." Finally, after she ran out of breath, I had to show her that the menu said scallions. She didn't understand, screamed at me and then walked out on her bill. FML
Today, a customer yelled at me because the cherry pie he bought had cherries in it, and he wanted a refund. FML
Today, a customer complained he never got his sandwich, even though I put it in the oven, dressed it up and served it to him. When I went to clear his table off, I saw the sandwich basket. We had to give him his money back. FML
Today, I was verbally harassed by a customer because I wouldn’t give her special treatment after her meal was incorrect. I offered her a refund and a coupon for a free meal, which she refused before calling me a stupid kid who wouldn’t do anything to help her. FML
Today, whilst working my waitressing job, I had a patron lose his rag at me because there was too much "green stuff" in his salad. What did he expect? Chicken? FML
Today, I went to a restaurant and asked for vegetarian options. They told me, "We have a chicken Caesar salad, will that work?" FML
Today, on day one of opening my first restaurant, a customer complained his chicken fried steak contained only steak and no chicken. I thought he was taking the piss but no, he was just that dumb, and he refused to leave until he got a refund despite having eaten it all. I had to call the police. 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, I was verbally abused by a customer because her entrée was too fishy. I'm not the chef, just the waiter, and I work at a fish grill. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Refuse to serve him because he doesn't look smart enough

Was it something fishy about his dish?

Never try to satisfy vegetarians; misery is their religion.

I've been a vegetarian for over 20 years now and have NEVER behaved like that individual. Not even back when some restaurants had no vegetarian main dish at all - I ate two salads and was fine with it. And eating out has become so much easier since then. So, please do not throw all sensible vegetarians into a pot with that stupid person.

See, you were vegetarian before it was "cool." Thanks to the younger generation it's little more than a fad and excuse to complain now. Older vegans and vegetarians can be fun to hang out and I have several friends that I love to pieces. I will NOT hang out with those of my generation or younger that claim not to eat meat for "moral" reasons because half of them believe chicken and fish don't count or they just want a free meal or an excuse to lecture me on my own eating habits. Every. Single. Time.

Reading this made me feel kinda old. Then I went and looked at your profile. You are not even ten years younger than me, barely half a generation! I was fourteen when I stopped eating meat, and no, it was not cool back then. I do not lecture people on their eating habits. Being vegetarian is MY choice for MY nutrition, that I made for MY reasons and everyone else has to make their own choices. I don't want to be lectured or judged because of what I decide to eat, and neither does anybody else.

And that is why you and I would get along famously. ;)

In what world can a customer ask for a replacement meal (even the same one) AND a refund? I was always under the impression if you were unhappy, you asked for one or the other, not both.

The main thing I learned working in the resturant business: people will do anything to get a free meal.
