How Could You do That to Your 12 Year Old Son!?
Posted: May 2, 2013 in Creeps, StoriesTags: bad parents, Disgusting, Dumb People, food drinks, food service, Horrible Customers, Kids, server stories, waiter stories
Not bad to me so much, but heartbreaking in general. I worked at a national chain restaurant for 5 years that served a lot of burgers and fries, 350+ lbs man gets sat with his ~12 year old son, already easily 250+ lbs. Dad orders a triple bacon burger with extra cheese and extra bacon bacon 2 sides of ranch and 2 sides of sour cream. Son orders double bacon burger with extra cheese and extra bacon bacon 2 sides of ranch and 2 sides of sour cream. Dad gets half jovial/half upset and says “that’s not enough for my son! Give him more than that!” and coerced the son into ordering not only a triple burger but and extra side of fries….

You Don’t Want to be Fat Do You?
Posted: April 29, 2013 in bad parents, Embarrassing, StoriesTags: bad parents, food service, Humor, Kids, life, lollipops, musings, waiter problems
The store I work at, which will naturally remain unnamed, is run by people who insist we offer small children lollipops (as well as small, cheap toys that often double as choking hazards). Since we’re reminded to make such offers, I did so today only to be met with a response of “Oh, no. My daughters don’t need those.” The three little girls protested, and were met with a scolding along the lines of “You don’t need suckers, because they’re nothing but sugar and sugar makes you fat. You don’t want to be fat, do you? Then nobody will like you.” Certainly left me speechless, if nothing else.

She Looks Just Like Kate Hudson

Was serving two couples, after a couple bottles of wine one of the mothers asked to take my picture as she wanted to set me up with her daughter. I said OK what does she look like. They said she looks just like Kate Hudson and showed me a picture of her. Yeah she looked like Kate Hudson if Kate Hudson gained 40 pounds and ran face first into a wall 10 times….Thanks but no thanks.

I just had a child psychologist in my workplace with her 3 year old whom
A: she couldn’t “control” by means of scolding and idle threats and
B: told me she was gonna start him up on meds if he doesn’t start acting right. all of this after she told me that this was it’s first time outside in a week (it’s? this is your child)….speechless

You Are Not Qualified to Have Children

I waited on a mother and her two daughters the other night. The girls were clearly in their early teens and the mother had one of those weird expressionless botox faces. I approach the table and the first thing out of this woman’s mouth was this, “hello, these are my daughters they aren’t 21 but I am their mother and I want them drinking with me tonight…so bring us 3 Margaritas and 3 shots of Patron.” after refusing her request I come back to the table with a round of waters and the same woman that seemed intent on getting her little girls hammered is now holding her iphone and showing them pictures of her in a skimpy bikini and asking which picture she should send to her boyfriends. BOYFRIENDS as in plural!
Then she sent her food back, complained about the temperature of the restaurant, asked to move tables, complained to my manager because I was rude for denying her underage daughters booze, and stiffed me.
The only thing I could think as I held the receipt in my hand with a big fat zero where the tip is supposed to go was……I wonder what her daughter’s stripper names are going to be.

Kid Running Wild in The Kitchen
Posted: January 21, 2013 in Dumb Customers, StoriesTags: bad parents, Dumb People, food drinks, food service, Horrible Customers, Humor, server stories, waiter stories, WTF
I was handling a party of 75 or so at my restaurant, and this little boy kept running to the kitchen (with swinging doors) playing in our BLEACH bucket, and rustling through our silverware. and I had to pry the kids hands off the shelving unit (where he could have gotten whapped by the door, swinging open violently at any moment) while he was SCREAMING. Lifted him by his arms, brought him out into the dining room to his parents who had NO IDEA he was gone!!! uggh…then they laughed!

I Get it Kids Make Messes But….
Posted: January 9, 2013 in Gross, StoriesTags: bad parents, Bad Tippers, Children, food service, server stories, waiter stories, WTF
I get it kids make messes. And truly, even to make a tiny half-assed effort to clean up OR just leave me a correct tip and a cheerful “so sorry” and I am more then happy to clean it up. But to the person that let their punk ass ugly little runt detonate his spaghetti tonight THEN left a 5% tip…..go fuck your self.

Bad Mamma
Posted: January 2, 2013 in Dumb CustomersTags: bad parents, Dumb People, Horrible Customers, Kids, restaurants, server stories, waiter stories
I work at a restaurant that offers beer in a 32 oz glass called a half yard. Today I had a single mother at my table with her daughter at noon….NOON. She orders a 32 oz bud light and nothing for her daughter. A little while later she flags me down and I see the glass tipped over on the table with a very small puddle of beer next to it and she claims that her daughter knocked over the beer and she wanted a new one….
She clearly drank most of the beer and tipped it over to get a new beer. Whatever our restaurant management has no backbone and of course I get her another beer. When I drop it off she asks for the check. I return with the check to find her pouring her brand new 32 oz beer into a giant Burger King Cup. I snatch the cup and tell her that it is against our policy to remove alcohol from the premises. She screams at me,”Good Because I wasn’t going to tip yo bitch ass anyway!” then she walks out… and the mother of the year award goes to….

Your Lack of Birth Control Isn’t my Problem…Control Your Ugly Little Kids
Posted: November 6, 2012 in Dumb Customers, StoriesTags: bad parents, Bad Tippers, creep, Disgusting, Dumb People, food service, Horrible Customers, Kids, restaurants, server stories, waiter stories
I worked at at a pizza place with a little arcade area a few months ago. We had the same woman who would come in about once a week with her four, terrible children. I’m talking little hellions. They’d come in and just start terrorizing everyone, always barefoot and running around, asking people for change to play the pinball machine jumping on the counter. They’d push and shove each other and try to climb on the benches and play with the open sign, open the door to the kitchen and try to come in the back. We always pushed her order in front just to get the brats out of the store. One night she pulled a scam of “Well last time i ate her the pizza was terrible but I didn’t tell you, I want this one free.” When I told her that wasn’t possible she starts screaming about how she’s a single mother with four kids and she needs to feed them and blah blah blah.
lady your lack of birth control isn’t my problem. Control your ugly little kids.
