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, while working as a barista, a customer asked me for "gluten free milk". When I told her that most milk is gluten free, she flew into a fit of rage and cussed me out for being a "cheeky bitch". My manager then lectured me about not being "patronising" to customers. FML

Today, I made a fresh juice for a customer. He called the cops because the juice was too acidic for him. He sat in a corner and waited for two hours for them to arrive. Obviously, they didn't turn up. So he yelled at me and left. FML
I hate my job

Today, at work, a customer came in and ordered a "Butterbeer Frappuccino." When I said we serve no such thing, she yelled at me for "lying" to her, saying she knew about our "secret menu." She ended up complaining to my manager and demanded that he fire me. FML

Apple juice, ************
Today, at daycare, a little girl cussed me out because I didn't have any apple juice left. When I called her parents, they sided with her and cussed me out too. My boss refused to sympathize, and reprimanded me for not making sure we still had apple juice. FML

Get on with it
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

Makes perfect sense to sell cranberry juice at a coffee shop

I've been bitched out for not selling tomato juice in a cafe of a Superstore.. the only juice we have at all are little cartoon juices for kids. Why would we have tomato juice at all? I told her she could probably get V8 in the main part of the store.

Worf can have quite a temper, don't hold it against him though its normal for klingons.

He actually preferred prune juice. A "warrior's drink" he called it. I think it just loosened him up.

I give you major respect for working in a coffee shop, dealing with the general public sucks. I'm sorry that some people don't understand it's not the workers fault if they don't sell something.

Because, depending on where you work in customer service, there are policies against defending yourself from irrational verbal abuse. Someone can go in on me for a half hour straight and I can't say anything back because counts as "arguing with customers".
