waiter

This guy was getting exasperated with the customer service at a restaurant, and after having enough of what he took as a "surfer attitude" from his waiter, he decided to return what he thought was a hang loose sign. This is where the fail presents itself in all of its terrible glory. Turns out the waiter in fact didn't have any fingers, and was absolutely not flashing a "hang loose sign." How about that for a big old-fashioned whoops. 

Waiters and waitresses have that outside-in perspective when it comes to you entering their domain, to take a chance at meeting someone for your first date. Those sporadic conversations you have with your date, consisting of information you'd already know if the other person was a consistent part of your life, are a giveaway. But at the same time, things aren't always as they appear. Maybe you're reading this as someone who's in a loving relationship, and realizing you might look like you're on a first date with your partner, every time you guys go out! 

Every time you've had an awkward meal, your server has totally picked up on it. And if you're lucky, they tell that story about you all the time. Also, quick tip: it's probably a good idea to not propose at Olive Garden.

People in the customer service industry should pay close attention here.

The receipt makes explaining this one away near-impossible. Can I get a, "JOB OPENING!" ? 

A whole lot of whining go on here. 

These won't fail to make anyone who's worked in the service industry, want to run and hide under a table!
