Today, my waiter turned to me and asked, "Let me guess, Miss I'm-not-fat-I'm-fluffy wants a Diet Coke?" FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, at lunch I ordered a Coke. The waiter replied, "Diet Coke?" and I corrected him saying, "No, regular Coke." He shook his head and said again, "Diet Coke." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I decided to stop by a drive-thru on the way to his place. I asked him to order a Coke for me, at which point he asked if I wanted to make it a Diet Coke. FML
Sorry, I didn't mean…
Today, I asked a girl at the restaurant I work at if she'd had enough to eat. When she said yes, I said, "Are you sure?" I didn't realize how insulting it sounded until her equally overweight mom was up in my face, demanding to see my manager. FML
Today, I ordered a Diet Coke with my meal from a fast food restaurant. Turns out, they didn't give me diet. My blood sugar spiked and I was sick for hours later. I'm a diabetic. FML
Thanks Karen
Today, I was taking a customer's order when she said she'd better go for a salad, because she was getting fat. She was actually very slim, so I told her she wasn't fat at all. She took one look at me and snorted, "Yeah, not compared to you, that's for sure." FML
Today, I was at McDonald's. As I left the counter with the food, I heard the cashier mutter, "Fat ass." I turned around and demanded to see the manager. Once he came and heard the situation, he looked at me and said, "Well, it's not like he's wrong, right?" FML
First impressions
Today, while on a date, I accidentally ordered "diet water" instead of saying "diet coke". FML
Typecast
Today, I was on cloud nine when the beautiful waitress I frequently ordered takeaways from told me she didn't need to take my name as she remembers me from before. When I got my food, I saw the sales slip. On it she had written, "Cheeseburger - Fries - Coke - Nerdy guy with bad haircut." FML
Mr Bean
Today, I was at a work lunch, and the waiter brought me a soda I hadn’t ordered. I thought it was a free mistake, so I took a sip. It was actually my boss’s drink. As soon as I noticed, I tried to give it back, but he just stared at me and said, "It’s fine. I’ve already seen you drink it now." FML
Assume the worst, huh?
Today, I was sitting in McDonald's. A lady came up to me and started complaining about the bad service, and asked for the manager. I told her that I didn't work there. "But you must, someone that fat has to work here!" FML

I really hope you obeyed the cardinal rule of the food industry & waited til after you got your food before telling the waiter what you thought of them... If not, you ate something extra with your food... Pretty much gauranteed...

He should have to give OP a tip after being so rude!
biggestfan23 11
When you think about it that's pretty funny. I mean he's brave for saying that to a customer and for that I give him props
asoptavlo14 6
When you think about it, that's extremely rude.

24- And the diet coke. Don't forget the diet coke
syley 5
His nickname for her suggests a previous altercation, since you don't call strangers "miss I'm-not-fat-I'm-fluffy" but op still wouldn't deserve to have this said to her unless she humiliated the waiter previously. But I might be reading too far into this also.
TheDrifter 24
Either way, I feel better about myself. I may be a dick, but I'm not as mean as that guy.
doctorhook86 25
If the OP is described as fluffy by strangers, there's a chance she's actually a sheep
misterjez 15
Op is just mad because they actually did order a diet coke.
SamanthaCassieL 10
That's really rude. Talk to the manager. You'll get a free meal. That's bullshit.
OMFGLOLWTF 0
Maybe that waiter had a bad experience with you back then or he's just that rude. But then again, truth hurts.
JustDerpin 11
Im thinking that OP must have done something, or said something that could've been rude, since their username is OhDearBetrayal. Maybe OP and the waiter knew each other?
janelly16 7
Or get their rude ass fired
TheArchAngel 8
Leave a single penny on the table. That ought to teach him!
LightningCactus 12
Leave a load of nasty ass pennies on the table as a tip.
happle 21
I would burst into tears if a waiter spoke to me like that.

If she's so fat or fluffy, her ass should be ordering a water not a diet coke... 0 calories vs. 150 calories....
THE_A_TEEN 28
Because you have a say in people's decision and should therefore act like the waiter and judge her.
MDTeddy 13
Nothing wrong with a diet coke. Also, I would have left.

I like diet coke better than regular coke. So what?
Boah78 0
you really think this is the only fat person this guy has ever seen? and he's rude to all of them? guaranteed ms. fluffy had it coming for some reason.

almost forgot... i commend him for putting you in your place.... i have no doubt you deserved it.

it was probably his last shift.

Chances are the woman was wearing the shirt that has that quote on it. Just saying it would explain a lot.

Complain to the manager, and leave her a 5 cent tip,
OhDearBetrayal 25
OP jacked my name. I also feel betrayed.

five levels of Fatness by Gabriel Iglesias: Big Healthy Husky Fluffy And DAMN! Maybe he just saw the stand up special. still gives him no right to say that to someone. I say pay a dollar less than the bill amount and let his ass cover the rest!

Coke Zero has zero calories. I'm not sure how many calories Diet Coke has, but it must have some or else there wouldn't be a need for Coke Zero.
twaumat 28
yesss that was rude...but if you fat you fat.

There's a sixth level, according to Gabriel. "Aw hell no!"

Oh, you know the waiter?

Oh so your mr nice?
NiCeGuY115 14
What I meant was that takes one fat person to be mean to someone else. I meant no disrespect or hatred or mean feelings towards the OP. I simply worded my comment wrong. And no I don't know the waiter.
Death_Hoe_Inn 10
I understood your comment, it made me lol!
shawnaishere 14
When I read the comment I understood it and I thought, why is it thumbed down that's a pretty funny comment.

Now this is funny

Op is a waiter?
nado13579 12
Well, that was rude of her. Don't let it get to you OP, you're beautiful. :)

I read this comment with James Blunt singing in the background of my head.
borkchop1992 15
Hello motivational internet mom
doctorhook86 25
3: Strictly speaking, there's no evidence from this FML that the OP is beautiful. Also, why imply that "beautiful" is the opposite of "fat"?
plaguer 26
Waiter, not waitress. And I'd rather someone call me ugly and it be the truth than be called beautiful by someone who doesn't even know what I look like.
fuzz97 23
I love how saying "you're beautiful" is like an online reflex for some people
meihua 19
And fluffy
French_Toast_fml 3
3- Just because OP isn't fat, it doesn't mean she's beautiful. I've seen countless women who are stick thin but also dog ugly. And, for all we know, the waiter might be right.
NicollieOlliO 0
It's not.... But it usually makes a person feel less confident. Therefore, calling OP beautiful makes sense.
brown4lifejot 1
I'm sure everyone has something beautiful about their looks.
GuessWhatKids 13
51 - Haven't you heard? Calling a girl beautiful makes you a thoughtful, unique and caring man with class as opposed to those sexist pigs who call girls hot. Apparently you can now say it to anyone because EVERYBODY is beautiful, dontcha know? Forget logical reasoning that if everyone was beautiful then nobody would be; EVERYBODY IS BEAUTIFUL JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE A HUMAN BEING HERP DERP
doctorhook86 25
173: It's controversial but you're totally right. 184: Well, I'm not sure that it makes sense exactly to call a non-confident friend "beautiful," but I do see how it could help. An upvote for you, young one! 254: No lie, "beautiful" sounds well classier than "hot." Overused? Definitely, especially among particularly vapid individuals...
DictatorDom 5
Only here can we have fights over whether somebody should have called somebody beautiful. I get where you're all coming from here, but come on.
prettyladyjo 2
The only "B" word you should ever call a woman is beautiful... Bitches love being called beautiful -barney (how i met your mother)

At the least OP should leave just a penny for a tip
dbt88 15
Maybe she was at an Ed Debevic's. They are purposefully mean to customers.
cradle6 13
As a waiter, I have tons of customers leave me nothing. (If iit wasn't for some really generous people, I wouldn't make much). A penny is too generous for that douchebag. Report him to his boss and get him fired. He doesn't belong in that job.
Enslaved 38
For some reason, I'm under the impression that the waiter already dealt with the OP before and knows she's a shitty tipper or difficult. Not saying it's right but sometimes a snooty attitude just comes out. If that's the case.... too bad the waiter can't remain professional.
Ray_of_midnight 23
Yeah, if you don't leave a tip at all, the server will just think you forgot. Leave a token amount and it'll make it obvious. (FWIW, I've done this exactly once in the 30 years I've been dining out in restaurants and paying the bill myself, and it was when the waitress was rude and snapped at me.)
Akalia_fml 7
Once while I was visiting Minnesota, I went to the Mall of America. There's a restaurant there called 'Dicks' and they're paid to be well, dicks. They were so rude I had to leave. Those people really know how to do their job. And, OP, I'm sorry about what happened to you. But I'm not about to call you beautiful or anything, because of the fact that I don't actually know what you look like. But I really am sorry your waiter was a prick.
KiddNYC1O 22
Dicks working at Dicks... That's perfect!
Fmlsea 28
a penny for a tip , i wouldn't leave him a tip at all he doesn't deserve it .
yupitssoph 18
That's so rude of the waiter. I would've walked out right then, or reported him then walked out.

Oh ya say the person said that too ur mom would u still laugh

CallMeMcFeelii 14
You are so right my friend. Only thing I'd have to disagree with is if you an ass of a waiter that bad, **** that place order tons of food then walk out with your head held high.
doctorhook86 25
136: Never piss off the line cooks; they usually hate the servers too.
daisiebud 18
You should also probably finish eating before you get them fired.

Ask to speak to the manager, and get him fired.
everydayFML2121 5
Yeah definately! I mean she's actually miss I'm-not-fat-I'm-big-boned. Only guys say they're fluffy, dduuhhhhh.
hqbrat 8
Seriously because I don't see free harassment on the menu
KBeatz 5
Say yes, then when she brings it throw it all over her face. Then, proceed to walk out feeling accomplished.
krewer21 1
Approved!
meihua 19
Waiter.
ahhbeex 8
My guess is that it's a male, considering it's a waiter, not a waitress.
KBeatz 5
Sorry, I guess I skipped over that detail. It's just when I play it in my head I imagine OP and a waitress for some reason.
VooDooCarrie91 19

No tip for the waiter. Wow what an ass hole thing to say.
greenie213 23
No tip. That'll show 'em who's boss.
s0m3guy2010 21
Maybe you should ask the manager his opinion on the question. He can maybe give a good tip unlike the one you're probably gonna leave your waiter.
