‘Get Me Who’s in Charge. You Won’t See a Cent of This Bill’ : Elitist Customer Demands Manager After Miscommunication, Server Loses Tip

Private events at restaurants are often riddled with miscommunications, false impressions, and rude guests/customers. One server took to Reddit, complaining about an entitled, elitist customer she'd come across at a sports event the restaurant she worked at, hosted.

'We need drinks!'... 'And I need tips': Bartender Gets $500 Tip After Epically Calling Out Entitled Celebrity Who Tries to Tip with an Autographed $5 Bill

Not only that, but servers, especially bartenders, have to put up with a lot of entitled customers who thrive on being doted on and babied by their waitstaff and if you've ever worked in the service industry, you probably know, that guests who are rich and famous are usually also the worst.

'I felt like the queen of petty': Waitress shares her politely shady method of salvaging her coworkers' tips

Waiters and waitresses work so hard to provide fast and friendly service, but some people just don't want to tip, no matter how good the service is.

These server memes exemplify the trials and tribulations of the restaurant worker experience. They express frustration towards people that arrive right before closing, customers who try to flag you down even though you're not their designated server, making mistakes on the job, and fashioning polite smiles so that you can get a decent tip from difficult patrons.

Server Memes For Restaurant Workers Who Are Over It

Working at a restaurant can be stressful and tiring, to say the least.
