We all want to keep things and not pay for them, but you can’t have it both ways. Here, we have a lady who literally tried to argue her way out of having to pay for a recently deceased family member’s grave. Her excuse was that she didn’t receive an official bill despite signing a collection letter over a month ago declaring when she would send payment. This thread was posted to Reddit’s r/EntitledPeople subreddit by u/According-Sugar-520 , who we’re sure has had to deal with delicate emotional…

When workers are denied scheduled raises, it should come as no surprise to their bosses when they start quiet quitting. Or for those of us who understand what quiet quitting actually is, acting our wage. Not only was this part-time server overextending and taking on more duties than she was being paid for, but also her boss had become reliant on her taking on those extra responsibilities. Those of us who have been in similar positions understand this conundrum all too well. However, this Reddit…

Every so often, you come across a pub with a clever enough sign that, at the very least, makes you consider coming in for a drink. Honestly, the truth is most professional advertising these days does not come close to the wit of these managers, employees, bartenders, etc. who happened to just come up with something clever on the spot. Perhaps making these signs was a creative outlet during their shifts. Or perhaps these folks should be the future of modern advertising and nobody is giving them…

If you work in a customer-facing role, you have probably collected a treasure trove of experiences with Karens. Perhaps you have had far more upsetting encounters with these infuriating individuals than you would have liked. Or perhaps you find the whole thing entertaining and are able to handle these kinds of entitled humans without very much emotional damage along the way. If that's the case, then you are a far more well-adjusted adult than I could ever be. That's because when I encounter Kar…

We've all been there—it's a big friend group dinner. It took weeks to plan and some of these friends you hardly ever see, so you really really want to go. But then the anxiety starts to set in when you start about how that splitting of the check is going to go down. Some friends are in the mindset of “just split everything down the middle!” Even though some people ordered $20 cocktails and prime rib and you just got water and a side salad. Others are all about separate checks, but who will be t…

A server's credibility is a fragile, yet desperately important thing to maintain if you're a restaurant manager. You wouldn't want to scare off the last of the good ones over a feeble hunch… right? Well, that's exactly what one hot-headed manager did in our next story.

It's not easy landing a job these days, the workforce is all kinds of crazy currently. So if and when you do manage to land a job, you should probably hold onto it the best you can, right? If it is a horrible work environment, the, by all means, quit. But if everything is going along just fine and you're getting paid and enjoy your coworkers, then why would you mess that up?

When you place an order for pick up—which means you are going to the store, they are handing you a bag of your food, and then you take it home yourself—are you leaving a tip? How much of a tip? Less than the usual 20% or none at all? What about when it's a delivery or sit-down meal? Do you take out of your tip when a sauce is forgotten or utensils missing?

Whatever happened to decent customers with acceptable behavior? Everyone understands that people have their bad days or perhaps they're in a hurry and need something quickly. Still, no single person's busy schedule should allow for unacceptable comments and nasty rhetoric. This thread was posted to Reddit by u/Outrageous-Gene-607 , a teenager who now has a full understanding of the dark truth about the Karens of the world. OP's mother created hand-made gymnastics suits for a living, and one day…

At a certain point, ordering a specific dish without the vital components that make it that specific dish in the first place becomes pretty pointless. For example, if you order a cheeseburger without cheese, it's just a hamburger; and if you order eggs benedict without hollandaise sauce , that's just poached eggs on a bun; and if you order a Ceasar salad without anchovies, you're just going to get a few lettuce leaves and croutons on a plate.

Every server feels their stomach drop when they see a toddler seated in their section. Like any service industry member with PTSD, for a split second, they'll imagine the terrors of cleaning melted ice cream from the corners of the booth seats, Karenish mothers yelling at them for a side of ranch, and scrubbing the crayon scribbles off the tabletop...

Some people have more confidence than they should, and this leads to lousy management, which in turn, leads to messes that can't always be cleaned up. One IT employee relayed the tale of the time his company shut down a client's entire server after they denied him access to the very equipment he needed in order to install the hardware for them… If you think that this is a counteractive move on their part, you would be right. The boss of the company that needed IT services was not the brightest…

Anytime there's a contest at a minimum wage job, it seems like whatever corporate baboon who thought of the idea has never actually stepped foot into the establishment they're attempting to manipulate. As out of touch as corporate contests are and no matter how pathetic the 'prize' is, there are still desperate employees who take part in the event. But the real winners, at the end of the day, are always the C-level suit monkeys counting their bonus checks and buying yachts.

Kids get a bad reputation in the service industry. However, anyone who has ever worked at a family restaurant know the truth—it's always the parents. Kids will be kids, we all know that, and it's up to the parents or guardians to teach their kids how to behave. So when an adult allows their tiny human to run around a restaurant like it's their personal playroom, of course everyone working there is going to be annoyed. Other than the fact that it's a real danger for your kid to be doing that whi…

It takes a certain kind of person to be a difficult customer at a restaurant; it takes another kind of person to go out of their way to write a completely off-base one-star review. These three reviews may all be referring to different kinds of restaurants: a taco place, a dog-friendly café, and a fancy restaurant. However, they also have a few characteristics in common: 1) they are poorly written, with grammatical errors all over the place; 2) it is clear from the get-go that the writers of the…

These customers didn't let their poor social skills keep them from dining at restaurants . Instead, they showed up ready to eat food and interact with wait staff as minimally as possible. We all have days where we want to be left alone. Sometimes you just don't feel like interacting with people, and instead, you just want to curl up on your couch, order food delivery, and watch a movie. It's odd that apparently lots of people decide to go to restaurants when they're feeling antisocial. Why woul…
