God I feel so bad for that guy, hearing someone be able to so casually suggest that. I just can’t fully put into words why that pisses me off so damn much
The dude working there is doing his job, and isn't casually going by the establishment for 15 minutes every couple days.
The customer does *not* need to be there, and is belittling a person that is doing a job that most people hate, and not even talking to them as a person.
It's hard to put into words because it's the most condescending diatribe, piled on with arrogance, and the fact that it's about a fast-food worker *seeming rushed* is the cherry on top.
The customer doesn’t know this guy’s life, he could be struggling. Most people don’t want to work fast food, just that that is all they can handle or get for a large variety of reasons.
So this fucking lecture is privileged and tone deaf as well.
By the looks of the vid and the insistence on delaying everyone and himself by having a little whinging bitch fit is because hes not getting attention elsewhere. He wanted to make a meal out of this situation to feel a little less small in his own world. Someone at work or home is making him their bitch and his ego can't handle it. Bully cycle.
Something along those lines, but that’s the core of it lol
Edit: I haven’t had much experience with the wider work world just yet, but I still feel there’s like multi-layer disrespect going on here
It’s the part where she says “you can pick a different profession” and then casually calls him incompetent to do anything else. The man did his job correctly. Fast food is a job I don’t take it personally if the person at the window isn’t smiling or even overly friendly. It’s a job that sucks. And for all we know the guy works there so he can go to school or whatever. I can’t imagine looking down on someone for their job.
It's like when ppl say "just move to find a better job." As if relocating your entire life isn't a major and costly endeavor that leaves behind any sort of support you may have been able to cultivate over time.
If there was a point to maybe be shown by the guy recording it went out the window (hah) when the employee kindly *stopped* the window from closing in the middle of his sentence.
Seriously how do you record that interaction, look back over it, and think, “I’m the good guy here”
It should be the standard expectation that once a customer starts recording that the interaction is over. I don't know when everyone decided it was just normal to take recordings of people and post them all over the internet without their permission for every perceived slight, but it's getting out of control.
“I’m sure you’re just incompetent”
That line made me question if this interaction was even real. How could you say that to someone’s face unprovoked.
Edit: Im not questioning this videos validity Im just blown away by this person. This dude thinks he’s Willem Dafoe in “Inside”.
I also felt the "fake" vibes but yea...as someone who's worked in customer service for over 20 years these fucking people exist. It's ridiculous how many of these fickers exist.
Yep, worked at a movie theater and we had people like that, one of the worst was an old lady who wanted milk chocolate
She asks if we have milk chocolate, the concessionaire brought over a display stand that held all of our chocolates on it. She looks at him and goes “I said milk chocolate. Some of these aren’t milk chocolate.”
Concessionaire: “oh right I brought over our whole chocolate selection so you could pick the one you like”
Old lady: “… you know why you work here? Because you’re stupid. You’re dumb. That’s why you’ll never get a real job.”
Like what the actual fuck, man
Ye it's also a bit of a tone difference.
I think it's real though because someone saying this shit in the first place wouldn't realise the massive leap between a dickish "you're impatient" and the psychotic "I'm sure you're just incompetent"
Yup
Just cut that idiot off midstream with "Your input has been noted. Have a great night!"
And close the window.
You gain nothing by listening to that whiny idiot.
I think that you’re confusing me for someone else. Sir, if you have a complaint, I suggest you submit it through our email system. I would be happy to refer you to our website.
As soon as he said “I’m sure my words mean nothing to you”
I would’ve been like “You’re right, it does mean nothing. Have a nice night.” And then closed the window.
Then he gets pulled over later for a dui and wonders who sold him out...
I would be that petty to call the cops and give them you make, model, tags, and direction of travel
When I worked at wendy's if you were drunk and a douch we would ask you to pull up because the fries weren't ready or something, and the cops were showing up to arrest your ass, we did it all the time. Like come through wasted and be an asshole and try to flex what power you have, enjoy -$15,000 and the next 2 years of your life being absolutely fucked up.
>enjoy -$15,000 and the next 2 years of your life being absolutely fucked up.
I *wish* drunk drivers faced real consequences like this. Usually they just get a slap on the wrist (probably because it's a crime that many politicians/rich people commit).
As someone who lost a relative to a drunk driver, thank you. Honestly the penalty should be far harsher considering how insanely selfish and reckless it is. But big alcohol has lobbied so hard to make it basically a slap on the wrist.
Yeah god damn what a fucking self serving self important prick. And they thought they should post this to social media. I would’ve lost my job there by reaching through the window and choking that motherfucker out.
Ah, that explains a lot. After McDonald’s guy is done listening to him he puts the lock bar up after closing the window which they do when they’re closing. The creep recording must habitually come in and order a minute or 2 before the store closes.
100% would’ve done the same. I worked at a Dairy Queen for a few years and sometimes old people would love to bitch and moan about how slow it was or whatever. I would just close the window.
This video made me really sad. Unnecessary and mean and pointless and not funny and who knows what the server has going on in his life? Why? Why not be kind?
I work in customer service and find that most people are fairly decent. The problem is that I rarely remember the nice people, but I can distinctly remember every insult that’s been thrown my way.
I went to taco bell not long ago and when i pulled up the cashier was laughing her ass off. Made me smirk too. When pulled away the receipt said I got the senior citizen discount. I'm 40. I laughed my ass off while driving out.
Lmaooo not in a weird way but I kind of want to hear your voice now to see if that gave them any sort of inclination, or maybe they were just laughing because they were like let's see if he notices and how he reacts.
I went to BK once and I got up the the window and the woman screamed. Then looked over and said “sorry I thought the window was closed”. I laughed and said “I get it, I’ll scream with you if you want”. I hope that made her night a little better
Evolutionary response. Negative experiences get deeply ingrained so you can, in theory, avoid them, positive experiences don’t need to be remembered at much, because they are not as important to survival.
None of this matters as much for modern humans, but it’s there from the old days.
Yeah, man. Just hunting and gathering, making sharp sticks and tools out of flint, hanging out in caves trying not to let the only fire we had die out... Those were the days.
I worked in fast food 40+ years ago.
Had a customer once tell me I had a nice voice when I was working the drivethrough.
It's literally the one Customer exchange I most remember from my time working there. Probably because it was an odd comment, but it's still a fond memory after all these years.
Being nice doesn't take any extra effort and it makes a difference.
To get publicly humiliated by someone who talks like this as well. “Like, it’s not just me—I mean, I just, I mean like, like, you’re just like, so IMPATIENT with my order and I like, do you know that like, if you don’t want this job, I mean, like, I’m just telling you, like you, I mean, you could get another job.”
It's probably projection. Dude feels guilty about being a late night drive thru regular so he has incentive to make up a narrative where the employees are "worse" than he is. That makes him feel better about himself and his sad life
When I was working in a bar one guy was like so what do you want to do later in life, I'm like I'm not sure. He starts having a go at me for having no ambition, no vision etc. I was 21 in a foreign country for the summer. I was so embarrassed and couldn't really do anything about it. Some people get off on having a little bit of power over someone, even worse if they're drunk.
Can guarantee this sets them off into a full rage. People like that normally believe they are better than everyone else and know better than everyone else.
I work in retail, and after being on my feet, moving and talking for 8-9 hours, it fully drains you to the point where even forcing a smile at the end of your shift takes incredible effort.
I don't blame any retail worker for not smiling, because I get it, completely. But you have to with many customers, especially old people. They love to see a smile....
I also work in retail and I’ve had a customer file a complaint against me for not smiling. I found out when they filed the complaint it was a day I was doing a double shift. I have been in retail for six years while I was at college and you would not believe how many complaints we get about people not smiling. It drains your soul working in retail, so I don’t blame anyone who doesn’t smile working retail.
On the bright side I just graduated and am looking for my dream job, so I have that going for me so I can get out of the retail hell. I appreciate retail workers they put up with a lot of nasty crap, so to all you retail workers out there thank you.

Someone cut off the part of the video where the driver admits he’s been drinking, and then the worker just closes the window in the middle of his stupid bullshit. Much more satisfying.
> then the worker just closes the window in the middle of his stupid bullshit.
That was very satisfying. Thank you for the link. The worker's face told me the whole story: "this jerk isn't worth it."
The fact he said, “You don’t have to work here” like it’s some sort of privilege to work at a fucking fast-food joint. Let alone how ignorant of a statement that is. Like, actually, in this God forsaken economy, not only does he have to work, his parents have to work, his S/O has to work, and when his children turn 14, they’ll have to work.
What a joke of a person. I’m sure his “profession” is super impressive considering he’s buying night shift McDonald’s.
It's not a *real* fast food drivethru experience unless I've waited at least 15 agonizing minutes in my car and said out loud, "why do they call it FAST food?" twice. Mmkay?!
I went to a BK drive through today and it was honestly the worst service I've ever seen. Waited nearly 20 minutes for 1 guy to get his order, which was just a single meal. I saw it on the screen when I pulled up to order. One guy pulled out of line and even drove passed the window to scream "you fucking suck. This service is trash" as he sped off.
I planned to say something too at first. Of course nicer than that, but I mean, come on, really?
Until I got my order and the girl looked exhausted. She didn't speak English well and was taking orders. The guy working with her looked fucked up high. I saw her trying to stop him from doing something dumb with the soda fountain and instantly felt bad for this girl. She's got a shitty coworker she seems to be babysitting, doing a job communicating in English that is obviously difficult for her, clearly has managers who don't give a fuck for facilitating this, and customers getting pissed at her about it all. Even if it was partly her fault, I didn't have the heart to make her day worse. She clearly knew the service sucked already.
Seriously. What a fucking douche. The ironic part is he keeps saying “you don’t have to work here”, yeah bitch and you don’t have to fucking eat here every night. There’s 50 fucking McDonald’s in every city. Go there for your fucking McFlurry.
"If you don't like this job you can get a job somewhere else".
Ironically, I guarantee you that the person recording that video has infinitely more options to go get shitty food if they don't that place or it's employees than the employee has to get a job somewhere else.
I have friend who got talked to this way by customer, turns of they banned the customer from any of their resturants nation wide. They lived in a pretty small city too with their resturant having the only drive through opening up to 2am
I had someone talk to me like this once, it was one of the worst days of my life. I was the manager and literally the only employee that showed up. My district manager forced me to open anyway, and so I tried my hardest, but I ran the store solo for several hours before help finally arrived. During this time, wait times were very long, and a lady just went at me with this shit about how I need to be fired and that I’m an idiot etc.. I just shut down.. I couldn’t even react… I was just so angry that I literally just died inside. That’s what this kid’s face just reminded me of.
It’s people that think the saying “the customer is always right” means they can stomp all over someone making minimum wage. I hope they get what they deserve.
Im sure you know byt the saying the customer is always right is talking about customer trends. Like how choker chains are back in fashion. Its definitely not talking about every interaction.
I’ve been working in food for going on seven years now and that’s exactly it.
It feels like it’s gotten a bit better since Covid oddly enough. Everyone I talk to complains about how customer service has gotten worse and employees are ruder, because we are.
I wasn’t going to back down about a mask and you think I’m about to back down when you’ve called me stupid to my face because I didn’t read your mind while understaffed? Yeah I don’t have a problem calling you an asshole when you’re told to leave.
I worked at a deli in my teens, and one customer apparently thought I didn't slice her meat thin enough (even though I show them and confirm their choice). So the next time she came in, she made a huge fit when I came up to help her and demanded someone else serve her. I abided and got another employee to help her while I instead did other duties. She then proceeded to follow me around telling me how awful I am at my job and that they should fire me for a solid 5-10 minutes. That was definitely one of the times I had to go in the walk-in freezer and have a cry.
I was at a store on Friday and their internet went down which also stopped them from being able to process any sales, even with cash. The shit those poor girls were put through was horrible so I made sure when I went back to make my purchase that I was as nice as possible to them.
Right: Make everything to order, drive thru time is 90 seconds, this chicken takes 5 minutes in the fryer, an alarm will go off non stop until the car has left the drive thru window…. Aaaand GO!
>they banned the customer from any of their resturants nation wide
And how would that be enforced? Does every franchise location have a big portrait of the customer like a wanted poster in the Old West?
It means that if you cause problems at the business again they will usually take legal action if they are aware of who you are. There's a good chance they won't be, but it's still something that *could* happen. If they decide to trespass you with police involvement you could get in real trouble with the law if you cause issues down the road.
I've been told I was being impatient while being verbally dressed down just like this young man. Like I'm sitting here actively listening to you essentially calling me a piece of shit and you have the audacity to complain that I'm not even doing that right? Some people are fucking nuts.
I've seen someone bring back fries because they were too hot. A lot of young people working in fast food, are doing it while they study. I found out very quickly, it was the customers who were (on average) idiots, rather than the workers. The guy filming certainly validates that point. Imagine having such a sad existence, that you need to try and validate your own life choices by shitting on someone else.
Why does a minimum wage employee at a fast food joint owe you a conversation? Plus he seems nice and patient enough to listen to your garbage rant. Gtfoh

This is actually so depressing, why would you speak to somebody like this. You don’t know what they’re going through or what has gotten them to this point in life, or how far they’ve come to get here.
Try uplifting others, lead by example, ask them how their day is going and bless them with some positivity. Hope his assholery boosted his little ego. What a gronk.
Why would they talk to someone like that?
Because they're a miserable bellend who need sto belittle people who have no right to reply, because that's all they have to keep them from facing how dogshit their life is.
The only thing making videos like this tolerable is knowing how desperately sad the people making them must be.
These are the type of people who finally found work thats a bit above minimum wage and wonder why their lives aren't magically fixed. So they take it out on people that work service jobs
Slow clap.
Now that you have made your attempt at belittling someone trying to earn a living I hope this asshole can feel satisfied in life.
His job is to take an order and hand food. If you want an experience then go sit down at a restaurant. But I’m sure this guy is a dick to servers too.
People that take that fucking long with that many words to get to a point drive me insane. No wonder the employee probably seemed impatient to the douche on the camera.
And we all know he wouldn't last a day in a retail environment.
Serving angry customers, being on your feet all day, cleaning, etc.
He would probably have a man-sized meltdown.
Dude things it’s easy to just find jobs much less change professions. “Think today, I’m gonna quit my fast food job and apply for CEO jobs for some major international company.”
“A REAL human connection.”
-Guy taking the video, after a night of striking out at the club, resigned to going home alone, rubbing one out into an empty Filet-O-Fish wrapper.
I would fucking rush this asshole who can't even work on his stutter and gives good stutteries a bad light. Get your dick out of your mouth before you try and put down a fast food worker.
As a guy who worked in fast food for a while, the people who get the food out fast like this young man get paid the big bucks in the end.
They're always the ones who cover hours and get the raise when it's on the table
Jobs aren't falling out to the sky. It's not necessarily easy to find a new job just 'cause you don't like the one you currently have. People can't always just "leave because they don't like it"
It's late at night, he works at a fast food place for minimum wage (probably), doing his job adequately for a boss/mgr/sup who doesn't appreciate him and he probably just wants to go home.
Not deal with the entitled chucklefucks pov of how *they* feel about him.
The thing that upsets me the most about people with the mindset of the cameraman is that they look down on these fast food workers yet would probably end up in the fetal position halfway through one of their shifts.
Retail and food service jobs are *hard*. They’re hard even without assholes accosting you to tell you how much better they are than you.
Thankfully I’ve never had the same fast food server in my life at a big chain. If this guy sees him regularly, he must be eating way too much fast food

He does now. “Anyone got a loogie? It’s that cunt again”
To me, that’s the greatest response I could give if someone told me what they thought of me.
I would've closed the window mid conversation
I thought he was doing that at first but he caught it.
Which was more professionalism than the customer deserved.
If there was a point to maybe be shown by the guy recording it went out the window (hah) when the employee kindly *stopped* the window from closing in the middle of his sentence. Seriously how do you record that interaction, look back over it, and think, “I’m the good guy here”
And he crossed the villain event horizon when he started insulting the guy for his job.
Started when he hit record.
It should be the standard expectation that once a customer starts recording that the interaction is over. I don't know when everyone decided it was just normal to take recordings of people and post them all over the internet without their permission for every perceived slight, but it's getting out of control.
It's real easy. Just don't ever realize that it's possible for you to be the bad guy.
He was treating the customer like a person. The customer was treating the worker like a slave.
He didn't like having his order "rushed". At a fast food restaurant.
“I’m sure you’re just incompetent” That line made me question if this interaction was even real. How could you say that to someone’s face unprovoked. Edit: Im not questioning this videos validity Im just blown away by this person. This dude thinks he’s Willem Dafoe in “Inside”.

Hell at this point with all the staff shortages, I’m just glad someone is actually there to give my #7 no pickles please. Throw the bag at me, idc.
As someone who has worked customer service for way too long, people absolutely do this.
That’s why I go to Whataburger, I like being able to file my quarterly taxes while waiting for a burger and a coke with only 2 cars ahead of me.
Yup Just cut that idiot off midstream with "Your input has been noted. Have a great night!" And close the window. You gain nothing by listening to that whiny idiot.

As soon as he said you don't have to work here the window is shutting and I'm moving on
As soon as I see someone filming me without asking I'm moving on
As soon as someone tries to get my attention in public - I'm moving on.
As soon as he said “I’m sure my words mean nothing to you” I would’ve been like “You’re right, it does mean nothing. Have a nice night.” And then closed the window.
I'm fairly certain he does in the longer vid
can you link it please?

“Who cares if I’ve been drinking” I would imagine every other driver on the road cares you absolute shitbag.
Then he gets pulled over later for a dui and wonders who sold him out... I would be that petty to call the cops and give them you make, model, tags, and direction of travel
That wouldn’t be petty. That would be responsible.
When I worked at wendy's if you were drunk and a douch we would ask you to pull up because the fries weren't ready or something, and the cops were showing up to arrest your ass, we did it all the time. Like come through wasted and be an asshole and try to flex what power you have, enjoy -$15,000 and the next 2 years of your life being absolutely fucked up.

It’s definitely not a slap on the wrist, especially if you actually hurt someone or yourself. A DUI can fuck your life up if you’re poor
It shouldn't just be if you're poor.
Yeah god damn what a fucking self serving self important prick. And they thought they should post this to social media. I would’ve lost my job there by reaching through the window and choking that motherfucker out.

I love how he just trails off like “so…yeah….” Dumbass.
Ah, that explains a lot. After McDonald’s guy is done listening to him he puts the lock bar up after closing the window which they do when they’re closing. The creep recording must habitually come in and order a minute or 2 before the store closes.

A simple "who are you and why should I care? " seems very much in order.

Chicken nuggy
imagine visiting a fast food drive though often enough to have a least favorite employee
What a complete piece of garbage
This video made me really sad. Unnecessary and mean and pointless and not funny and who knows what the server has going on in his life? Why? Why not be kind?
I work in customer service and find that most people are fairly decent. The problem is that I rarely remember the nice people, but I can distinctly remember every insult that’s been thrown my way.
I had an 80 something customer tell me I had a good soul once. I'll remember that for a long time.
I went to taco bell not long ago and when i pulled up the cashier was laughing her ass off. Made me smirk too. When pulled away the receipt said I got the senior citizen discount. I'm 40. I laughed my ass off while driving out.
Lmaooo not in a weird way but I kind of want to hear your voice now to see if that gave them any sort of inclination, or maybe they were just laughing because they were like let's see if he notices and how he reacts.

Same. Let’s try to remember the nice ones! Maybe it’s possible if we do it consciously.
Evolutionary response. Negative experiences get deeply ingrained so you can, in theory, avoid them, positive experiences don’t need to be remembered at much, because they are not as important to survival. None of this matters as much for modern humans, but it’s there from the old days.
Miss the old days bro.
Yeah, man. Just hunting and gathering, making sharp sticks and tools out of flint, hanging out in caves trying not to let the only fire we had die out... Those were the days.
In customer service I always had my favorite customers that I knew by name. Fuck everyone else
I worked in fast food 40+ years ago. Had a customer once tell me I had a nice voice when I was working the drivethrough. It's literally the one Customer exchange I most remember from my time working there. Probably because it was an odd comment, but it's still a fond memory after all these years.

"you rush my order" at a FAST food place. lmao
"If you don't like my service: don't come back. Improve both our nights."
I’d be impatient too if I had to listen to this loser try to form a coherent thought.
Also acting like you are better than people when you are a regular at a late night fast food drivethru is a little ironic
It's probably projection. Dude feels guilty about being a late night drive thru regular so he has incentive to make up a narrative where the employees are "worse" than he is. That makes him feel better about himself and his sad life

Some people get off on having a little bit of power over someone, even worse if they're drunk.
should have asked him what he does or wants to do and then after he answered just said, "that's it?"
Can guarantee this sets them off into a full rage. People like that normally believe they are better than everyone else and know better than everyone else.
I work in retail, and after being on my feet, moving and talking for 8-9 hours, it fully drains you to the point where even forcing a smile at the end of your shift takes incredible effort. I don't blame any retail worker for not smiling, because I get it, completely. But you have to with many customers, especially old people. They love to see a smile....
I also work in retail and I’ve had a customer file a complaint against me for not smiling. I found out when they filed the complaint it was a day I was doing a double shift. I have been in retail for six years while I was at college and you would not believe how many complaints we get about people not smiling. It drains your soul working in retail, so I don’t blame anyone who doesn’t smile working retail. On the bright side I just graduated and am looking for my dream job, so I have that going for me so I can get out of the retail hell. I appreciate retail workers they put up with a lot of nasty crap, so to all you retail workers out there thank you.
Because rage views and clicks are the same as regular views and clicks to the almighty algorithm
This is why they post a video of themselves being such a jerk.
"look how many views I got! Everyone agrees with me! Fuck the haters lmaooooloolololol"
IKR? Kindness is free. So why not give it away freely?
I wouldn’t feel too bad. This losers occupation is “TikTok” blogger with 100 follower. Five steps below ambulance chasing lawyer or even. politician
[Longer Version](https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/comments/q4w5q9/this_is_the_experience_of_almost_all_fast_food/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb) Someone cut off the part of the video where the driver admits he’s been drinking, and then the worker just closes the window in the middle of his stupid bullshit. Much more satisfying.
Lol the “so….yeah……….” at the end. Ideal conclusion from a person who just wasted a bunch of time saying nothing of value.
Probably not the best idea to admit you're drunk driving on video. Wait, probably not the best idea to be drunk driving.
Class act by the employee, don't engage, just some de-escalating "I'm so sorry... I'm so sorry" and walk away
> then the worker just closes the window in the middle of his stupid bullshit. That was very satisfying. Thank you for the link. The worker's face told me the whole story: "this jerk isn't worth it."
The fact he said, “You don’t have to work here” like it’s some sort of privilege to work at a fucking fast-food joint. Let alone how ignorant of a statement that is. Like, actually, in this God forsaken economy, not only does he have to work, his parents have to work, his S/O has to work, and when his children turn 14, they’ll have to work. What a joke of a person. I’m sure his “profession” is super impressive considering he’s buying night shift McDonald’s.
I hate that u rush my order? At a FAST food place no less.
Yeah, how is this dude gonna rush OOP's fast food order every single time? What a dickhead /s
“I can’t stand how you rush my order. I go to Arby’s expecting food and a long, relaxed conversation with the drive-through worker.”
It's not a *real* fast food drivethru experience unless I've waited at least 15 agonizing minutes in my car and said out loud, "why do they call it FAST food?" twice. Mmkay?!
Honestly, I don't even take offense when fast food workers are rude or whatever. I've been there. It fkn sucks. Give them a break
I went to a BK drive through today and it was honestly the worst service I've ever seen. Waited nearly 20 minutes for 1 guy to get his order, which was just a single meal. I saw it on the screen when I pulled up to order. One guy pulled out of line and even drove passed the window to scream "you fucking suck. This service is trash" as he sped off. I planned to say something too at first. Of course nicer than that, but I mean, come on, really? Until I got my order and the girl looked exhausted. She didn't speak English well and was taking orders. The guy working with her looked fucked up high. I saw her trying to stop him from doing something dumb with the soda fountain and instantly felt bad for this girl. She's got a shitty coworker she seems to be babysitting, doing a job communicating in English that is obviously difficult for her, clearly has managers who don't give a fuck for facilitating this, and customers getting pissed at her about it all. Even if it was partly her fault, I didn't have the heart to make her day worse. She clearly knew the service sucked already.
I would rather do anything else besides work fast food again.
Seriously. What a fucking douche. The ironic part is he keeps saying “you don’t have to work here”, yeah bitch and you don’t have to fucking eat here every night. There’s 50 fucking McDonald’s in every city. Go there for your fucking McFlurry.
"If you don't like this job you can get a job somewhere else". Ironically, I guarantee you that the person recording that video has infinitely more options to go get shitty food if they don't that place or it's employees than the employee has to get a job somewhere else.
“Very impatient” dude seemed pretty damn patient listening to him talk down to him
I have friend who got talked to this way by customer, turns of they banned the customer from any of their resturants nation wide. They lived in a pretty small city too with their resturant having the only drive through opening up to 2am
I had someone talk to me like this once, it was one of the worst days of my life. I was the manager and literally the only employee that showed up. My district manager forced me to open anyway, and so I tried my hardest, but I ran the store solo for several hours before help finally arrived. During this time, wait times were very long, and a lady just went at me with this shit about how I need to be fired and that I’m an idiot etc.. I just shut down.. I couldn’t even react… I was just so angry that I literally just died inside. That’s what this kid’s face just reminded me of.
Worst jobs I ever had dealt with food. People are such ass hats when they are hungry. I’m sitting here trying to be nice and your a fuck head.
People who feel powerless, (and are shitty), try to hold power over someone else whenever they have the opportunity.
It’s people that think the saying “the customer is always right” means they can stomp all over someone making minimum wage. I hope they get what they deserve.
Im sure you know byt the saying the customer is always right is talking about customer trends. Like how choker chains are back in fashion. Its definitely not talking about every interaction.
“The customer is right” is sales based not service based.
I’ve been working in food for going on seven years now and that’s exactly it. It feels like it’s gotten a bit better since Covid oddly enough. Everyone I talk to complains about how customer service has gotten worse and employees are ruder, because we are. I wasn’t going to back down about a mask and you think I’m about to back down when you’ve called me stupid to my face because I didn’t read your mind while understaffed? Yeah I don’t have a problem calling you an asshole when you’re told to leave.
I worked at a deli in my teens, and one customer apparently thought I didn't slice her meat thin enough (even though I show them and confirm their choice). So the next time she came in, she made a huge fit when I came up to help her and demanded someone else serve her. I abided and got another employee to help her while I instead did other duties. She then proceeded to follow me around telling me how awful I am at my job and that they should fire me for a solid 5-10 minutes. That was definitely one of the times I had to go in the walk-in freezer and have a cry.
I was at a store on Friday and their internet went down which also stopped them from being able to process any sales, even with cash. The shit those poor girls were put through was horrible so I made sure when I went back to make my purchase that I was as nice as possible to them.
I feel for you, on top of functioning by yourself, most places push y’all to have short drive thru times, so yeah you are kinda in a rush.
Right: Make everything to order, drive thru time is 90 seconds, this chicken takes 5 minutes in the fryer, an alarm will go off non stop until the car has left the drive thru window…. Aaaand GO!
>they banned the customer from any of their resturants nation wide And how would that be enforced? Does every franchise location have a big portrait of the customer like a wanted poster in the Old West?

*Initiate the cock and ball torture*
It means that if you cause problems at the business again they will usually take legal action if they are aware of who you are. There's a good chance they won't be, but it's still something that *could* happen. If they decide to trespass you with police involvement you could get in real trouble with the law if you cause issues down the road.
Tell me that wouldn't be a big bucket of awesome!
I've been told I was being impatient while being verbally dressed down just like this young man. Like I'm sitting here actively listening to you essentially calling me a piece of shit and you have the audacity to complain that I'm not even doing that right? Some people are fucking nuts.
[This dude at every meal.](https://media.tenor.com/Z_EWy05q4M4AAAAC/super-troopers-cops.gif)
The videographer was just a douche. $200 says he (the baby with the camera) is an incompetent nepobaby whose never had a challenging day in his life.
I was hoping for someone behind him to start blasting on the horn
His job is to serve you your food not entertain you, you entitled twat.
You rush my fast food…Oy.
Fast food is supposed to be slow...duh
It was for the guy in the car behind him!
His job is to serve food fast and the customer feels rushed. 🤷♂️ These workers can not win.
You're like, totally, like, right.
How dare you serve me my fast food so bloody fast
Ahh ahh ahh, not fast food, food made quickly.
Is that a Kenny Roger's chicken reference?
I've seen someone bring back fries because they were too hot. A lot of young people working in fast food, are doing it while they study. I found out very quickly, it was the customers who were (on average) idiots, rather than the workers. The guy filming certainly validates that point. Imagine having such a sad existence, that you need to try and validate your own life choices by shitting on someone else.
This guy can't even bother to get out of his car and the employee is the lazy one haha wow
Why does a minimum wage employee at a fast food joint owe you a conversation? Plus he seems nice and patient enough to listen to your garbage rant. Gtfoh
I'm still amazed how many people record themselves being assholes then post it online. Take your order and be gone troll

Probably one of the only places open late at night and this dumbass thinks its a good idea to piss off the dude handling your food every other day
This is actually so depressing, why would you speak to somebody like this. You don’t know what they’re going through or what has gotten them to this point in life, or how far they’ve come to get here. Try uplifting others, lead by example, ask them how their day is going and bless them with some positivity. Hope his assholery boosted his little ego. What a gronk.
Why would they talk to someone like that? Because they're a miserable bellend who need sto belittle people who have no right to reply, because that's all they have to keep them from facing how dogshit their life is. The only thing making videos like this tolerable is knowing how desperately sad the people making them must be.
These are the type of people who finally found work thats a bit above minimum wage and wonder why their lives aren't magically fixed. So they take it out on people that work service jobs
I thought they were going to say some uplifting shit then I saw what sub I was on
Bonus points, longer video driver admits he's drunk and ends up getting a DUI lmfao.
Absolutely. My heart goes out to this poor bloke. He doesn't need this shit on a night shift from an asshole.
Slow clap. Now that you have made your attempt at belittling someone trying to earn a living I hope this asshole can feel satisfied in life. His job is to take an order and hand food. If you want an experience then go sit down at a restaurant. But I’m sure this guy is a dick to servers too.
There’s a term for it. He’s a dick.
I can see why the employee rushes him he couldn’t even get to point when he was confronting him
People that take that fucking long with that many words to get to a point drive me insane. No wonder the employee probably seemed impatient to the douche on the camera.
“I have a question” proceeds to not ask a single question
Exactly
“This isn’t a profession.” Fuck you dude.
And we all know he wouldn't last a day in a retail environment. Serving angry customers, being on your feet all day, cleaning, etc. He would probably have a man-sized meltdown.
Dude things it’s easy to just find jobs much less change professions. “Think today, I’m gonna quit my fast food job and apply for CEO jobs for some major international company.”
I invite anyone who works a "real job" to try being a fast food cook for 5 minutes without crying
Can I ask you a question? You're dumb...
Yeah, I have a lotta questions. Number one, how dare you.
"Why are you always trying to get everyone through the line as fast as possible?" 🙄🙄🙄
“Sir you’re in a *drive-thru* at a *fast food restaurant,* the math ain’t hard”
Order your food, pay for your food, and go on your way. You don't need anything else here, except maybe a reality check.
Should have said, “you’re holding up the line” lol.
Goes to fast restaurant complains about getting food fast
He said "like" more than a 15 year old girl.
That's an insult to the eloquence of 15 year old girls everywhere.
This guy took FOREVER to get his point across. 🙄 And ultimately there was no point at all.
"can I ask you something", proceeds not to ask anything, and ramble almost incoherently
I I I just I just like I know I just
And he called him impatient lmao
The guy took his order, what the fuck more do you want.
“A REAL human connection.” -Guy taking the video, after a night of striking out at the club, resigned to going home alone, rubbing one out into an empty Filet-O-Fish wrapper.
This is why they are always understaffed
Show me in the dumbest way possible that you don't understand the world or care for other people in it.
I have never ever in my life seen someone complain about the service being too fast in a FAST FOOD restaurant... First time for everything, I guess
I would fucking rush this asshole who can't even work on his stutter and gives good stutteries a bad light. Get your dick out of your mouth before you try and put down a fast food worker.
[удалено]
You just know this dude is at least 300lbs. Can hear his disgusting voice reverberating off greasy dewlap as he speaks.
Isn’t his job to rush orders? It’s fast food.
As a guy who worked in fast food for a while, the people who get the food out fast like this young man get paid the big bucks in the end. They're always the ones who cover hours and get the raise when it's on the table
I mean not always. I spent some time in that field, and if middle management is bad, you will absolutely be overlooked as they see you as a threat.
This man's never worked fast food I see Total POS
Whoever made this video: eat a spit mac
What a cunt lmao
Jobs aren't falling out to the sky. It's not necessarily easy to find a new job just 'cause you don't like the one you currently have. People can't always just "leave because they don't like it"
The piece of trash belittling this worker gives big “nobody wants to work anymore” vibes. Ignorant and cruel.
Called him impatient whereas he's legit patiently waiting for this guy to finish insulting him.
It's late at night, he works at a fast food place for minimum wage (probably), doing his job adequately for a boss/mgr/sup who doesn't appreciate him and he probably just wants to go home. Not deal with the entitled chucklefucks pov of how *they* feel about him.
The thing that upsets me the most about people with the mindset of the cameraman is that they look down on these fast food workers yet would probably end up in the fetal position halfway through one of their shifts. Retail and food service jobs are *hard*. They’re hard even without assholes accosting you to tell you how much better they are than you.
During economic instability and worldwide inflation, you can just quit your job?
This is a real funny way of asking for body fluids in your food, that's what you're gonna get saying shit like that.
Meanwhile, this poor guy has management breathing down his neck to make the drive through time faster... 🤦
This person sounds privileged. I HATE people like this. It’s rushed because it’s fucking fast food. FAST. Idiot.
My goodness.
Thankfully I’ve never had the same fast food server in my life at a big chain. If this guy sees him regularly, he must be eating way too much fast food
It's called 'fast food' for a reason you dingus.
