Old Lady with severe dementia comes in with her family. As I am pre-bussing she proclaims that she has to use the restroom. However, she had already began to go. Diarrhea all over the seat and trailing through the dining room. We had to open the emergency exit to let guests leave. I felt so bad for the busser who had to clean it up! I tipped him extra that night!

I am a waitress at a popular chain restaurant  I would love to tell people that the oriental chicken salad is one of the most fattening things on the menu, with almost 1500 calories. I cringed every time someone ordered it and made the comment of wanting to “eat light.” But we weren’t encouraged to tell people how fattening the menu items were unless they specifically asked.

Also, whenever someone wanted to order a “medium rare” steak, and I had to say we only make them “pink” or “no pink.” That’s because most of the kitchen is a row of microwaves. The steaks were cooked on a stove top, but then microwaved to death. Pink or no pink only referred to how microwaved to death you want your meat.

I worked at CPK  for 3 years. We would have the same old obese lady come in every few weeks and place a to go order for 3 pizzas. She would demand that we let her cut her pizza herself because “y’all never do it right.” She would literally take the pizza cutter and do some kind of satanic symbol in the pizzas, rip the lids off of the pizza boxes, pay, and go sit in her car and devour theeverything. Some things you can’t unsee.

I had a creepy foreign family in my section last night. They yelled at each other the entire time in some kind of Eastern European language and ordered in broken English. They ordered a chocolate cake for dessert and the youngest member of the family took it upon himself to “make” me (their waiter) a present. This creepy little foreign shit licks the remain chocolate on the plate into the shape of a heart.

The family left without leaving a tip. I guess they thought letting their youngest son tongue the fuck out of a plate was enough gratuity for me….I hate foreigners.

Today is National Ranch Dressing Day. Every waiter and waitress cringes at the sight ranch dressing.

RanchDressing
Even mentioning extra ranch in to someone in the food service industry inspires the image of a fat, needy patron sucking down diet coke and dripping cellulite all over the restaurant. I don’t know what the connection between loving ranch dressing and sucking at life is…but it exists and everyone here at BreakRoomStories thought it would be fun to devote today to shaming all those ranch guzzling douche-bags.

I was having a pretty good shift tonight until a customer at my table took a bite of his mashed potatoes, chew, then spit them out onto the table in front of him. He looked at me in disgust and said “These are cold, clean this up.” FML

A child puked all over his mom and the booth I was sitting in. Oh it was ripe! But what makes this memorable is a table got sat right next to the throw up booth and a giant grown man got a smell of the puke and instantly threw up too…..I spent the next 25 minutes cleaning up 2 piles of puke. I hate my job.

I just saw my manager walk into the restaurant wearing a suit with mandals (man sandals). He might have the creepiest toes I have ever seen.

No matter how many times I wash it or how long I leave the shampoo sit for, my hair still smells like fish and grease.

Table Change

I bus tables and hostess at an upscale diner. About a month into working there, during a regular weekday lunch shift, a family of three walked in and I sat them at a two-top (with an extra chair for the baby carrier) beside an empty four-top.

The mother pulled out two chairs from the table beside theirs and proceeded to change her filthy spawn right there. RIGHT THERE. In the corner of the goddamn dining area. I spent about fifteen minutes after they left just sanitising the entire two tables and all the chairs.

People are super icky.
