Today, I met my boyfriend's parents for the first time. Turns out his dad is the asshole customer that I complain about all the time. He recognized me too and spent the entire dinner making passive-aggressive remarks about how bad of an employee I am. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to my boyfriend's house to meet his parents. After hundreds of passive-aggressive comments, my boyfriend and I went into the kitchen. I started complaining to him about how his parents were horrible and mean. Little did I know, his parents had followed us in and were right behind me. FML

Today, I met my new boyfriend’s parents, hoping that they would like me. They made subtle, mean comments during dinner and made me feel like total crap, all because my boyfriend left his ex-wife for me. They don’t get that we’re both good and compatible for each other, and that’s what matters. FML

Anyone else want to know what he does that's so bad?

Meh, it doesn't have to be anything epic, there are just some people who treat you so incredibly disrespectfully that you will always remember them. Bark at you, never respond to anything nice you say, act pissy if the system takes too long for them, absolutely lose their shit whenever you have to tell them no due to things out of your control.

Man, I don't understand people saying "maybe you'll be able to get on if you're nice enough!" No. Someone who is consistantly an arsehole to someone in customer service, then can't restrain from being nasty at dinner with them is not going to come around. Good luck with that one, op. :/

Wow, that's ridiculous. And childish. I feel bad for OP and the boyfriend's whole family for having to put up with him. If he honestly thinks you're that horrible at your job, all he needs to do is avoid your register/area while you're working. No need to ask for your service just to be a jerk, and certainly no need to bring it up in a completely unrelated setting. He should take the time to get to know you as a person. I know some of the cashiers at my grocery store pretty well, and a few of them are really nice people but horrible cashiers. I've never felt the need to go through their registers and be an asshole to them... I usually just go through a different line and say hi on the way out. That way I don't get frustrated with them, they don't get made to feel bad, and we can be friendly instead of hating each other. Everyone wins. I just wish more people had this attitude instead of the father's attitude...
