Today, I got yelled, screamed, and cursed at by a customer until I was reduced to tears. This was all because I double-checked to make sure she wanted large fries. FML

As an overweight person I really feel for the customer, too often we get asked questions that hurt us... Last time when I ate my four hamburgers with large fries, some youngster waiter approached me and asked me if I needed a napkin... Why would I need a napkin, being fat means I can't eat properly ? Is that it ?! Is that it??! I mean just cause I had a stain or two on my shirt, and maybe a few drops of ketchup on my chin doesn't mean I need a napkin, this is absolute rudeness ! This is fascism, I am a victim of a system that needs me to eat a lot and makes fun of me for doing this exact thing.

It is their part of job to ask customers whether they want extra large fries/burger/whatever at fast food outlets. Just because someone is really concious about their weight/looks doesn't mean they can just abuse people that serve them. Even if such a worker was rude, then screaming and cursing them out in return should be still out of option - there is a humanitarian way of dealing with such things and it's called 'a complaint'. Taking it out on people who are in such a lame position (it's widely known how underpaid and mistreated they often are) is pointless and won't change anything. OP, if I were you, I would call for your manager/supervisor. No matter where you work, verbal/physical abuse against employees is equally illegal to an abuse towards a customer. Fight for your right to be able to work and still retain your dignity.

Actually, as a fast food worker, I know we are required to ask every customer if they require napkins. Also, we are to upsell wherever possible, so to every customer who doesnt specify what size meal, we are required to ask if that was a large meal. But it looks like, according to the way the fml was worded, that the customer ordered LARGE fries, and OP was repeating the order to double check it was correct.

I can't tell if you're trolling or...

I think he's trying to make fun of the bad customers.

14 im hoping you are joking, which you must be since you dont look fat in your picture, because asking if you want napkins IS IN NO FREAKIN WAY AT ALL calling you fat, if your that sensitive about your weight that questions that are non-weight related piss you off, then you should really do something about it... but you have to be trolling cause that post made no sense. maybe my sarcasm detector is broken, i think it is... my bad

I'm certain that 14 is being facetious as 36 has described.

1. Sarcasm win. 2. Which chin do you need a napkin for?

I don't know how people thought you were serious bro. Thanks for the laugh!

@14 Do you need a napkin for all that dripping sarcasm?

Lol I don't understand why you're being down voted. I could tell immediately you're just trolling.

Jesus Christ, this went WAY over everyone's head.

I have quite a good sense of humour, but this was too far for OP's sake considering they were abused and brought to tears over a similar situation. I saw that it was sarcasm (especially as it didnt match the profile picture) but obviously the downvoters (me included) thought this was a step way too far.

I'm sorry OP, FYL some customers are just so hard to deal with. Just double checking to make sure you got the order right because you didn't want to get it wrong, some customers are just unreasonable rude

I've known some pretty awesome chubby people. They give one of the best hugs! :P

#35 We do give awesome hugs. We're all squishy like teddy bears. :D

Exactly. And who doesn't love life-sized teddy bears?! :)

Ignorant people are the dumbest, check yourself before you Shrek yourself bro

You should have got your manager to deal with the bitch. I am sorry you had to endure her abuse, OP
