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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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
Today, the slow, incompetent kitchen staff was keeping customers waiting for their food for 20 minutes. I got sick of a bunch of grown adults with kids my age ganging up on me, so I quit on the spot, and walked. Some guy grabbed me by the collar and dragged me back to the register. People cheered. FML
Today, while standing in line at a local Mexican fast food place, I was feeling generous and let a little kid behind me go in front. Turns out he had a list, and was ordering food for his whole family. I had to wait 30 minutes to get my food. 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 waited in line at a drive-through behind a man for ten minutes. I got out of my car, cursed at him, and then asked him to give me one good reason why it would take that long to order. The man slowly explained to me that he had a stutter. FML
Today, a lady cussed me out for not bringing her salad and pizza to her table. She then wanted her money back. I work at a buffet; a self-serve buffet. FML
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, after standing in line for most of my lunch break just to buy food, some asshole with a cart full of stuff cut in front of me. He claimed that he was there the whole time, and the whole line, plus the cashier backed him up. I missed lunch. FML
Today, I got yelled at by a man for not opening my store 10-15 minutes before the scheduled opening time, which made his 84-year-old wife shit her pants waiting to get in. It didn't matter when I explained I had no way to know she needed to use the restroom. FML
Today, an interviewer kept me waiting for 20 minutes at reception, then marked me "late" in his feedback. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I can just imagine a GROWN man yelling about not getting served as he sees other people getting their own food...that's kinda sad

I am so glad stupidity isn't contagious

#1, I thought your picture was a hairy leg...

That guy definitely was not the smartest tool in the shed

He is still a tool however

Sadly, #19, in some cases stupidity is contagious. Some people do such idiotic things just because other people are doing them.

#24 and #39 carved initials in a tree. I never saw it as a hairy leg until you mentioned it 24 lol.

Some people just need a reason to bitch, he was probably just stressed so don't let it get you you OP
more4me 27
why is this comment down voted ? people who are stressed out often fail to see what's right in front of them.
PenguinBitch 44
It's voted down because there's an option to vote it down and therefore we have a right to vote it down because we just feel like voting it down.

I downvoted 21 just for the irony

Same

Stressed don't give you the right to vent off your anger at someone. Especially strangers. Add a crazy boss too and it could have cost OP the job.

Or the guy who goes to Walmart in sweatpants that prominently feature his ass crack. Wait, we're not just listing the types of people we hate? :)

Really just had to ruin that didn't you?

People make mistakes, especially at new places. It must be frustrating having to deal with those people though.

Ain't nobody got time for him! I'm sorry OP some people just need a guitar string slap right to their faces.
Respect101 17
The OP of the guitar post said he wouldn't wish that pain on his worst enemies. So I don't think that guy deserves that, he just needs to calm down and be more observant.
avadakedabra 15
He was probably just having a bad day. Still, that doesn't give him an excuse to be a jerk. Sorry about that OP. FYL indeed

Ah. I just saw #2 said about the same thing. My bad
phoneaddict13 29

#9, So did you.

To be fair, your comment was within a minute of #2's.
avadakedabra 15
Well thank you #37

Some people do that to get attention. Ignore them OP. At the end, it's them who look silly.

He must not have known that education is also self-serve.
buckdharma 38
You should have told him that is why the word waiter contains the word wait, and if he doesn't like it he should get it himself.
christiandiaz15 2
But did he still get served?
Miss_Chevious 37
This guy needs to be reminded that service at a 5star hotel is different from a self-serve place
