What's the most disappointing product you've ever received? No matter how carefully you vet the seller, sometimes you're going to end up with a subpar product. This seems to happen constantly to people who buy things online, where tricky photography angles can be used to disguise subpar products. One person bought a cat sweater, only to realize it wasn't a sweater at all. It was a sweater print , printed onto some cheap fabric. It looks like the kind of fabric people wear for an ugly holiday sw…

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes, am I right? No one's ever told that to this customer apparently, who just couldn't understand why he wasn't getting his Chinese food i n a timely manner. This story takes place back in the days of landline phones . It seems like they don't even put landline phones in newer houses today; I don't know a single person who still uses that brick of a phone glued to the wall. In the ages of cell phones, they're completely obsolete. Not everyone misses them, eithe…

While on a work trip to the Big Apple, this person decided to do some fancy dining on their workplace's dime. That's quite the perk if you can get it! The food in New York is truly incredible, as any visitor or resident of the city can tell you. You've got to try the pizza of course, but there are tons of sandwich shops and ice cream parlors and a dizzying array of other foods that are delectable. You really can't go wrong! This person was traveling to the city's Theater District , which is ful…

With the rise of fitness influencer culture on social media, there are all kinds of tips and tricks to stay healthy and feel your best; it's almost intimidating. From eating strict keto diets to tracking your macros and participating in 75 hard (seriously, who comes up with this stuff?), it can feel impossible to keep up with the trends. This guy tracks his food intake to the max, accounting for macros, micros, fiber, calories, and everything else we didn't even know we should be paying attenti…

This person flew a little too close to the sun while trying to cash in on an incredible deal . No one has a malicious compliance story quite like u/DuckDownRob's tale. They share the way they accidentally broke a rewards system by acting like an extreme couponer of sorts. There have been plenty of failed promotion programs throughout history. It can happen to any company if they aren't cautious about the wording of their offers, as well as limiting the amount of products that people can purchas…

Oh, you have to be at the airport in 90 minutes, but you have time for a sit-down meal at a restaurant? Tell me more. Tell me why you think that's a good choice. International flights can cause long lines to get through security---these notoriously take ages to get through. Oh, you're only 25 minutes from the airport? I'm sure there will be no traffic, red lights, or slow drivers to stop you from getting on your flight. Truly, if you decide to have a sit-down meal outside the airport when you h…

This person has a few questions for their local deli . After working there for five years, they've seen a thing or two at that location. You really get to know the in and outs of a restaurant after working there for so long. In fact, u/medlabcriseshotline had worked there long enough to know that there was a bit of misleading advertising going on at the place. The original poster is curious about how much of the food prep process needs to be done in-house to be considered “homemade." There aren…

Whoops… these waiters mixed up their words a little bit! It happens to all of us now and again: we mean to say one thing, then think of something else to say, and then combine the two to make one dumb phrase. It's like that scene in Mean Girls when Cady tries to say “great” and then “cool” and ends up with “grool.” Except that these people were waiters, and they were talking to their customers when they made their mistakes. Unlike other service jobs, waiters work for tips from their customers,…

We've all had a poor experience with fast food at some point. When you get that late-night craving for a burger and fries, the last thing you want is to receive a half-eaten delivery, a major missing ingredient, or uncooked meat. Unfortunately, this is far more common than any of us would like to admit. When it does happen, we hopefully catch it before it's too late… you don't want to discover raw chicken after you bite into your nugget. If you're lucky enough to catch it early, you throw your…

This might make you think twice about the next time you're feeling lazy and decide to pop through a drive-thru window to pick up a quick bite to eat. According to these fast food workers , no restaurant joint is off-limits. From menu items that are made up of all of the leftovers corporate doesn't want to go to waste to the machines that are built so poorly that they are impossible to clean, you probably should know these gross facts before you go spending your hard-earned money at some of thes…

At this “ tourist hotspot ,” a lot of guests demand only the finest treatment. They want the nicest, biggest rooms, the most photogenic food choices, and of course, massive discounts. Why? Well, because they're influencers, of course. They're basically celebrities in their own minds. After that, check out these design fails that were dubious from the start, like the stairs that are sure to take out an ankle or two.

Is anyone else just trying to make enough money to afford DoorDash again? Picture this: you're having a late-night craving for fast food. You probably got a targeted ad from Dominos that caught you in a vulnerable moment, so you couldn't help yourself. Against your better judgment, you order some pizza, cheesy bread, and even some of those chocolate lava cakes for you and your partner on a delivery service app, only to discover that the service fees before tipping make your entire order $20 mor…

The owners of this restaurant couldn't handle the truth! At this establishment, management was trying to figure out how to make their store “more professional and turn some things around.” That's an admirable goal: wanting to make a restaurant a better place for both staffers and customers alike is sure to benefit a business. However, some restaurant owners don't want to take the obvious (and free!) option to figure out what should change. They could ask their hardworking employees and managers…

This customer will rue the day she forgot her manners at a restaurant. She was paired with a waiter who doesn't care for impolite customers ! As a waiter, you come to realize that some customers are just impolite for no reason at all. Maybe they're having a bad day, or they act like that all the time. There's a certain type of customer who just automatically act disdainful towards workers, as the job of serving food makes them less of a person. I've never understood why you'd be anything but po…
