Today, a customer threw his hot coffee all over me, because it was taking "too long" for their credit card to be approved. FML

So I am doing a follow up on this because for some reason a different name was put as the author, I have contacted FML about it. This happened about 2 years ago when I worked at a theme park in Orlando. The guy was buying tickets and I told him that the computer told me I had to call the credit card company. I asked if he wanted me to use a different card and he said no and was fine with me calling to get authorization. I was on hold with the company and it was taking too long for him. He started complaining and I told him I was on hold but instead of calming down he threw his coffee on me. It was not scorching hot but it was hot enough that it did burn a bit. Security came over and escorted him off the premises and he is now banned from the entire company's property. I didn't sue in fact it was just another story to tell my friends and family.

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I think that qualifies as assault. Take his grumpy ass to court!

I heard the customer is always right... So direct your punch to the right side

That definitely qualifies as assault. I really hope you press charges against him.

Accident happen. Hurry that machine up, people have shit to do and it doesn't involve standing around looking at a teenage dipshit that smells like cow dung and has the conversation skills of a brick. YDI, arsehole.

Who puts coffee on their credit? Customers suck, but the worst thing one ever threw at me was a newspaper so you win this round, OP

it could have been a debit card that was being processed as a credit card? not everyone carries cash

I agree, I work at a bank and I can tell you a lot of people don't carry cash these days.

If you're still young, get out if customer service ASAP and do something that you enjoy. It will slowly break you down and make you hate everyone and that's no way to live.

That's assault. File a report with the police.
