Today, while I was working at Chipotle, a teenage girl asked in all seriousness if she "could have a steak burrito, but with like, chicken instead?" FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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 went to a restaurant and asked for vegetarian options. They told me, "We have a chicken Caesar salad, will that work?" FML
Today, I was in the line at Chipotle and noticed a very attractive lady in her mid 20's. I deliberately took the table next to her and her friend and happened to overhear what they were talking about. They were both discussing how much diarrhea they were going to have when they got home. FML
Today, I was reduced to tears and called a "useless fat bitch" by a customer I was serving. She didn’t realize that the steak fajitas she’d ordered had steak in them. She said she was a vegetarian. She failed to mention it, but apparently it was "my fault" because I “should have known." FML
Today, I was in line at Chipotle behind the guy ordering for his entire office. FML
Today, while waiting on a customer at a restaurant, I accidentally asked a midget if she'd like a children's menu. FML
Today, while working as a line cook, one of the servers sincerely asked me, "What sauce goes on a chicken bacon ranch sandwich?" I replied, a little incredulously I'll admit, "…Ranch." She then totally lost her cool and went full-blown adult temper tantrum because I was, "mean to her." FML
Today, I had a customer propose to me. I work at Taco Bell. FML
Today, I ate at Chipotle. There was a girl sitting alone, so I asked if I could eat lunch with her. She said yes, and as I sat down I tried to open my bag of chips. When trying to do so, my hand slipped, and I punched myself in the face. She laughed, and promptly left. FML
Today, I was minding a 6-year old boy. He begged me to take him somewhere. I rang his mum, and she said I could. He picked to go to McDonald's. He ordered chicken. After his meal, he told me he was vegetarian, and wanted to try some meat while his mum wasn't around. I got the blame. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Chicken fried steak, anyone? The most confusing dish name ever.

And then she asked for sour scream and cheese without like, the cheese?

I could understand if a steak burrito had different salad/fillings that she preferred and it was easier to change the meat than specify how she wanted the filling, but as far as I know at Chipotle you basically customise the whole thing? In which case, there isn't even such thing as a steak burrito. It's plain burrito + steak/chicken + whatever other junk you want in it. So yeah, pretty nonsensical request. And I say this as somebody who often asks for weird things in restaurants because of specific food allergies/vegetarianism.

It would appear that "chipotle" is not an internationally known chain. Please excuse us for not knowing the menu/ordering style.

I can't say I see a problem with this. I work at a Taco Bell and I've had people order a beefy 5-layer burrito with chicken instead of beef, and my personal favorite is a cheesy-double-beef with chicken instead of beef. I've never been to Chipotle though, so I have no idea if there's a chicken burrito that's identical to the steak burrito.

Taco bell and chipotle...two very differant restaurants

Would you rather them order a beefy 5 layer w/ chicken instead, or sit there and list everything they wanted? It makes more sense to do that at Taco Bell since most of your items are listed for beef, and you need to request it differently. At chipotle you pretty much tell them everything you want on it and build it. (My understanding anyways, it's been a while since I've been). Two completely different scenarios.

"Omg! Lyke, fer sure! Would you like, lyke some 'guac on that it an extra dollar?!" Now that that's out of my system... I have a friend that works at a knock off competitor that serves college kids! She would just nod sadly how true this is!
