Today, while working, a woman complained that she didn't ask for sauce on her sandwich. After examining the sandwich, I realized it was just melted cheese. When I told her, she threw the sandwich at me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, a woman threw a sandwich at me, told me to go back to "fucktard island" and demanded to see my manager. All because the mayonnaise sandwich she ordered, shockingly enough, had mayonnaise in it. FML
Today, at work, a woman came up to the snack bar and ordered a pretzel with no salt. When I served her the food, she angrily complained about it having no salt, followed by her throwing the whole thing in my face. FML
Today, while working at McDonald's, a woman returned to the drive thru because her fries weren't hot enough. She was so angry about coming back that she threw her cold fries at me through the window and told me to "choke on them." FML
Today, while waiting tables, I watched a woman pull the bacon off her roast beef melt and eat it. She then called me over and spent several minutes complaining about the our chefs' inadequacy because they didn't put bacon on her sandwich. FML
Today, I tried to make a grilled cheese sandwich for myself, but as soon as I started, my mom rushed into the kitchen and criticized me for making it "wrong". She then made the sandwich for me. It tasted significantly worse than when I make them. FML
Today, while working at a sandwich shop, we had a shortage and could only put so many veggies on one sandwich. I explained this to one man who was grumpy about it, but kept on ordering. I thought everything went well. He thought my face was a good target to launch his completed sandwich at. FML
Today, I opened my lunch at work to discover that my sandwich was a soggy mess. The Tupperware I'd put it in was a piece of crap, and all the mayo had leaked out. I tried to salvage it but then spilled the whole thing in my lap. I ended up eating my lunch with a plastic fork, and even my fingers, like an angry animal. FML
Today, while working as a line cook, one of the servers sincerely asked me, "What sauce goes on a chicken bacon ranch sandwich?" I replied, a little incredulously I'll admit, "…Ranch." She then totally lost her cool and went full-blown adult temper tantrum because I was, "mean to her." FML
Today, while at work, a rather large woman came in and ordered a cheeseburger. When asking if she would like to supersize it, she took her purse, smacked me, and told me she wasn't fat, and how rude I was for calling her supersized. I was just doing my job. FML
Today, I was working at Subway when a middle-aged lady demanded that I give her a sandwich for free. When I refused, she took out a spray bottle of water and sprayed me in the face, like a cat. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Rule #1: Don't **** with the people who make your food. If she ever comes back in, I hope you serve her some spit-soaked justice.

That sucks, OP, I feel your pain. I make sandwiches all day, and there are some people that honestly just enjoy the feeling of power they get out of degrading service workers.

...And those people are usually just people with massive inferiority complexes. It makes them feel better about their own shitty lives to make others feel small. I hate people like that.

Don't ask questions, the customer always has to be right -.- it makes your life go on.

Not always. There has been times, where I had to correct a customer, but in a nice way.

37- Please explain how that phrase in any way remotely sounds like a good idea considering the FML at hand along with the countless other service industry horror stories ever told?

I've recently joined the silly world of fast food and people, and one thing I've noticed is that you just gotta let it go, do what the person wants and continue with your day. That's all I was pointing out :P
laden_swallow09 35
Thank you, though there's no need to make rude faces with your tongue.

I wonder if that is considered assault?
perdix 31
That's assault, so you should call the police on her. Maybe she'll even get a day or two in jail where the sandwiches come with sauce, whether you ask for it or not.

It ain't easy being cheesy.

...and sometimes the sauce doesn't come with a sandwich....whether you ask for it or not.

Kindness kills. Honestly, when my customers are being fuckwits I put on the biggest smile and go into overdrive. It makes them look so much worse for being a douchebag to someone so nice. Then pull a sneaky Kylee and spit in the sandwich
unknown_user5566 27
Pull a "Kylee", eh? I've always dreamt of my name becoming a verb! ;)

I would of punched her. What a bitch!
laden_swallow09 35
*would have. And punching someone is assault in the court system. Never fun to walk around town with a felony on your record.

"Throw the CHEESE!!"

Am I really the only one who understand where this comes from? :O
laden_swallow09 35
May be. Sorry. :(

whoever said the customer is always right never had to deal with the public.
Wafflestomper 22
The economist that said that probably meant that (usually) the purveyor of goods cannot make moral judgements as to what the customer should buy if they want to stay in business, as long as the product is legal to sell. It doesn't necessarily mean that the customer is actually always right about the product being sold.

58 - Your profile picture is fitting for this FML.
