Today, at work, a customer ordered a caramel latte with no caramel. I made a regular latte after explaining that’s what it was. He got angry and threw it at me. I got fired for insulting his intelligence. FML

Today, I was teaching a swimming lesson to 6-7 year old boys and girls. I recently broke up with my boyfriend so I haven't been taking care of my bikini line. While I was demonstrating how to do a whip-kick out of the water one of the boys said, "You have a beard coming out of your bathing suit!" FML

I learned that in those types of situations just do what they say and don't comment. As long as they believe they got what they ordered all is good.

You don’t want to work for a company who allows that kind of behavior from customers anyways. Hope you can find something better.

Unfortunately many do allow it for fear of bad word of mouth on social media. If it happened in the US most states can fire you for anything

You could file a wrongful termination suit. It seems as though the customer didn't have any intelligence for you to insult.

Not defending the behaviour of the customer at all, but just staying quiet like some people here advised is a bad idea, too. It is important to ask or explaing stuff to people, because maybe there is just a misunderstanding. I always order caramel coffee without caramel sauce because the sauce has milk in it but the flavor doesn't. Most of the baristas tend to be confused by this, too. It's annoying but you talk and explain and then you get what you want.
