Pizza is one of the most universally beloved foods (with the exception of these 20 pizzas, which are not loved). Sorry not sorry, there's just no saving most of these pies from their fate: the garbage can. I'm happy for the person who ordered the 19-topping pizza (first photo!). I really am. If you want to turn your pizza into a chopped salad of sorts, that should be your prerogative. Even better, this person got all of those extra toppings for free! That's the kind of order that makes the owne…

Have you ever, in your whole life, had a friend charge you money to eat at their house ? I really haven't, with the exception being takeout food. If you order takeout with your friend group, someone's going to have to send out those Venmo requests for that pad thai. But that's different than inviting your friends over for an off-the-cuff dinner, and then insisting they need to pay for it the next day . It's not always cheap to host a party: all those ingredients, beverages, and decorations can…

Customers with specific food demands should reconsider whether or not it's worth it to dine out. This customer clearly has a lot of anxiety around food ordering, which can be completely understandable if said customer were to have strict dietary restrictions. Still, to have the audacity to walk into a pizza spot with a typed list of instructions that includes no cheese or tomatoes is something else entirely. Yes, you read that right. No cheese or tomatoes at your average pizza spot. What did th…

Living with roommates is such a dice roll… are you gonna land on a good number or are you gonna lose the game? This woman was renting a house with a single mother and her son. She stated she didn't actually mind living with the pair, as they didn't interact much due to colliding work schedules, but over time, things got ugly anyway. The single mother was struggling financially, but the woman telling the story said that she didn't make a good salary either… so it's not a Robin Hood story. The wo…

Coffee mugs rattle, silverware clinks, and the grill is sizzling. You weave your way through the packed tables, refilling customers' water and delivering steaming hot plates piled with burgers and fries. Ten years in the biz, and you've got this dance down to a T. Your muscle memory serves you well as the crowd thickens. You juggle orders, argue with the kitchen, and wish your coworkers cared about their tips as much as you do. Why does it seem like you're doing everything alone? By closing tim…

Every restaurant or store has to deal with people attempting to leave without paying. In stores, it is easier to prevent people from doing it, because they have to leave the premises with a physical item at hand, and it is pretty simple to track the items and make sure they are not stolen. In restaurants, is it a bit more complicated, since a customer consumes the food before they actually pay for it, so they can just up and leave when no one is looking, and never pay a dime. Surely every resta…

There is a plethora of ways in which a food delivery order can go wrong. Sometimes, it's an honest mistake. Sometimes, it's the customer's fault. And sometimes the person delivering your food is a bit too eager and bizarre. You know, the kind of guy who messages you after the delivery is complete. Perhaps it's about getting an extra tip or maybe it's even a flirtation no one asked for. Regardless, customers and delivery drivers alike are human, which means the capacity for errors and misjudgmen…

There is nothing more satisfying than to watch entitled people get what they deserve, even if it is as small as watching them get up from a table that isn't theirs at a restaurant. Let us give you more context. This person on Reddit shared a story that happened to her while she was on vacation with her parents. While traveling, they got hungry and decided to book a table at a nice restaurant, but when they got there, they saw that all of the tables were occupied, even though they made sure they…

A bunch of waiters and chefs revealed the funniest things they’ve ever heard in the workplace. While working in a restaurant’s back of house (BOH), employees quickly gain a playful rapport with each other.

Babe, what's wrong? You've hardly touched your peppermint, pickle, hotdog pie

Some employees think that the office manager, HR, or whoever organizes the office works for them personally. See, I was an office manager back in the day, and people would leave the dining room an absolute mess. When I opened the fridge, I frequently thought that people were growing fungi there on purpose, by leaving their containers for weeks on end. It was so frustrating that I sent out countless emails, and even held an office meeting regarding the whole thing. Nothing changed, and I eventua…

Food fails happen to all of us at some point. At least, I hope they do. I burnt an entire tray of bacon yesterday, and I'm a perfectly good chef who's nearly 30 years old. I put some bacon in the oven for 14 minutes at 400 degrees, thanks to the fastest Google search results. I was also making some scrambled eggs and pancakes at the same time, and, because I live my life on hard mode apparently, frantically waving a blanket in front of the fire alarm every minute or two. Lately, the fire alarm…

Today is a great day to remember not to believe everything you read online. This is especially true if you're swiping through social media apps like TikTok and saving the recipes for later. A lot of them might look good on camera, but they won't actually taste good. I actually do sometimes make TikTok recipes but only by first looking up a proper recipe for it elsewhere. For example, there was a parmesan potato recipe going around that looked excellent, so I just looked up a proper recipe onlin…

Nice going there, chef! If you're a viewer of The Bear but you can't cook to save your life, you may have found yourself pretending to be Carmy in your tiny kitchen as you boil a pot of pasta to complete imperfection. The truth is that no matter how many times you choose to mumble “yes, chef or ”no, chef" while you're cooking, some hopeless wannabe cooks simply are not capable of improvement. It's the same for folks who can't exercise via running. Some people are just not meant for it. After al…

Sometimes, being a stickler can backfire majorly. This manager learned that the hard way after calling out an employee for expensing a mere $1.02 more than the usual limit. She was given a stern “talking to” despite the fact that she rarely spends anywhere close to the $30/day amount when she travels for work. Well, that all changed quickly when the Redditor decided to maliciously comply following her manager's unnecessary tirade. She shared her story via this thread on Reddit's r/MaliciousComp…

Airports are one of those necessary evils in life. Sometimes you want to be zipping down a ski slope or splashing in some clear blue water at a beach somewhere. But in order to get there, you'll have to endure a few hours of airport nightmares . I can't begin to tell you how many fake cell phone chargers there are in our country's airports. Judging by the folks at r/mildlyinfuriating who shared pics of their latest airport adventures, people absolutely love to get stickers that look like chargi…
