Today, working at a fast food restaurant, I saw a woman in her late thirties pull out some hair and put it in her food, then threaten to sue me and the restaurant. She also told me no one would believe me, a teenager, when I told her I saw her put it there. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I work at a food joint as a chef, and a customer found a long strand of hair in her food. The manager blamed me, even though I'm bald. FML
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
Today, while working at McDonald's, a woman returned to the drive thru because her fries weren't hot enough. She was so angry about coming back that she threw her cold fries at me through the window and told me to "choke on them." FML
Today, I went to a restaurant for lunch. I began to eat when I noticed a blond hair in my food. When that happened, I went up to the counter and began complaining about their hygiene. When the manager insisted no one that works there had long blond hair, I realized that it was my hair. FML
Today, my 45-year-old child of a mother made such a dramatic scene over finding a hair in her food that the initially apologetic owners ended up kicking my family out. FML
Today, while at a restaurant, I watched in horror as my daughter picked a hair out of her food and continued eating it. FML
Today, I placed an order at a fast food joint, when the elderly lady behind me cussed me out for ordering the same thing she wanted. She ranted that I was a "dirty thief", while everyone else glared at me as if I was holding up the line. What the fuck? FML
Today, while working the drive-thru at work, an older woman asked for my phone number to give to her single son. After I politely declined, she called me a slut and threw her food at me through the window before promptly speeding off. 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 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Try to get a DNA test to prove it. your witnessing would be probable cause.

Let her waste her time filing a lawsuit. There are no damages for her to seek so it would be frivolous.

A DNA test over a burger seems a little bit like overkill

Considering there have been previous cases where the restaurant tested a mouse to see if it was microwaved I wouldn't be surprised if a DNA test was used

DNA testing costs thousands of dollars

And lawsuit payouts tend to cost way more than that.

If the DNA test proved that the hair belonged to the customer, than the customer would most likely have to pay the court costs and DNA testing costs for filing a frivolous lawsuit

I think the easier solution would just be to look at the security cameras

My thoughts exactly, #74!

#2 why not use security camera footage?

I doubt she's actually going to sue; it takes money (and a relative guarantee of success) to get a lawyer to tangle with the law firm(s) a major chain has. She was after a free meal. When she didn't immediately get offered a refund, she went to the "I'm going to sue!" card, hoping a manager would cave in the name of customer service/lawsuit avoidance. As was said below, do you have cameras in the area she planted the hair in?

People sure are desperate for money these days.

Get a test done. You'll be OK

Surely your restaurant has security cameras? If it came to that.

Isn't there a law against suing fast food restaurants? People these days...sue sue sue
ladyLALAA 29
There's a law for everything these days
sylvienoir 18
No? Why would there be a law against that? If a fast food place causes damages they should pay for it. EVERYONE is eligible to be sued. The president, celebrities, corporations, your neighbor.

Except for the queen of England.

Appears that she's trying to create a hairy situation.

She's not wrong.

You only live up to half your name. Eye-witness accounts can be credible from any age, moron.

I had this exact thing happen when I was a server back in high school. It was a man that did it and when he started yelling and cursing me out over his own hair, my manager banned him from the store and called the police. Nuts that people will.do that for a free meal.

Unfortunately, a lot of people are willing to go to such a low level just to get some money. I suggest you tell your boss you saw her put the hair there. I'm pretty sure he would believe you if the woman is making such a big deal over a hair.

Yep they are. Like 15 years ago a family spent all day at Disney and then at the end of the day they came in saying their son was burned by a light that was lighting a tree by the parade. They wanted free tickets for the next day to make it right. When we looked at the camera we saw him take out a screwdriver remove the shield and hold his kids hand on the hot light. All he got was arrested for child abuse. Working there killed my hope for humanity.
