Today, I was yelled at by a customer, who was upset over having waited twenty minutes for a waiter to come take her order. Maybe it would be understandable, if she was sitting in an actual restaurant, and not a serve-yourself coffee house. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, at the café I work at, I was yelled at by a woman because the drinks and food she ordered were "taking too long". Before I had the chance to get a word in, she stormed out and said she would never come back. I didn't get the chance to inform her that she hadn't ordered yet. FML
Today, a grown man yelled at me because he'd been waiting for 15 minutes and still hadn't been seated or had his order taken. We were at a self-serve breakfast buffet. FML
Today, working at a fast food restaurant, I was berated by a customer for a good two minutes. It's okay though because she ended with, "Sorry, I forget you all are real people." FML
Today, I was yelled at by a customer because we didn't have any ketchup packets. I work in a coffee shop. FML
Today, while working as a barista, a customer yelled about her muffins and butter not being ready since she only had a "short time to eat". There were 7 tip giving customers ahead of her, but I rushed her order. She gave no tip and stayed for over an hour. FML
Today, at my place of work in a fast-food restaurant, a customer called in and bitched at me that her warm food was weirdly cold. That is, after she drove 45 minutes from the restaurant to her house. FML
Today, a woman came up to me at work and screamed at me for "taking forever" to come and wait at her table. I work at Wendy's. FML
Today, I got yelled at for providing horrible customer service, in a store I don't even work for. FML
Today, a customer screamed at me, because her iced coffee tasted exactly like coffee, and she hates coffee. Sadly, this isn't even the most insane person I've had to deal with at this job. FML
Today, I went through the drive-through at Dunkin Donuts and asked for an iced coffee. After no response, I started frantically screaming about bad service. After a while, a woman came out to my car and said, "Please pull up to the speaker." I'd been yelling at a garbage bin for 5 minutes. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That's one intelligent individual. Some people are so ignorant.

Starbucks is just so much easier.

What a dumb bi**h! I hate how stupid the human race can be; and then she probably didn't even apologize for yelling at you when she was at fault. People need to be smarter and not so proud.

I get that sometimes at the pizza place I work at. There is a counter with tills on it, and people go and sit down expecting us to go take their order. Some people just don't understand sometimes, it seems.

anyone else reminded of a certain picture that shows a counter covered in ketchup saying, "waited 30 minutes, got no service " or something along those lines?

Reminded me of a picture of a lady standing behind a line of mannequins with a caption saying "She waited there for five minutes."

It's possible she's just old. I can't say I've ever heard of a 'serve-yourself' coffee house, unless it's basically just a canteen.

I feel you on that one! Have that at my restaurant for breakfast. You think people would get the hint after five minutes and see what other people are doing to get service.....also on that side note, people if you are in a restaurant and have a server never, i repeat NEVER, say "get me the cheapest one you have" it sounds tacky to the server and the server will only want to do bare minimum service because it wont be worth their time. Trust me

Well that's when you calmly explain the situation and make her look like the fool, no?
