(I’ve just finished ringing up a customer’s order.)
Customer: “Is it too late to make the drink and fries big?”
Me: “Of course not, let me just charge it.”
Customer, to my manager: “It should be free since she didn’t offer it to me! You should offer it to everyone equally!”
Manager: “I’m sorry sir, she can’t give it to you for free. We’re all human. We all make mistakes.”
Customer: “Well, fine! Next time I want to be helped by someone who isn’t human!”

(Seated at one of my tables is a grown woman. Placed across from her is a stuffed animal.)
Me: “Welcome to [restaurant]. Can I start you off with a drink?”
Customer: “Yes, I’d like a diet coke.”
Me: “Okay, one diet–”
Customer: *gestures to stuffed animal* “…and he’ll have
our house wine.”
Me: *laughs, playing along* “He doesn’t look over 21, ma’am.”
Customer: *completely serious* “Oh, you’re right. He’ll just have a lemonade, then.”

(Note: I’m a customer and overhear this conversation.)
Worker: “Hi, what can I do for you?”
Customer:“I bought this garlic bread, and I burnt my hands and my mouth.”
Worker: “Oh, how did you burn both?”
Customer: “It was too hot in my hands, so I put it in my mouth…”

(I am cleaning down the kitchen and I manage to cut my hand rather badly. There are no bandages in the kitchen so I wrap it in a cloth and go to find my manager out front.)
Customer: “Excuse me, we’re ready to order our dessert.”
Me: “I’m sorry, I’m just trying to find a bandage at the moment. Could it wait a minute?”
Customer: “Well, I only wanted some ice cream.”
Me: *shows hand* “You want blood with that?”
Customer: “Chocolate sauce, maybe?”

(The customer rips the lid off of the shake I just hand her and frowns.)
Customer: “What is this?”
Me: “That’s a vanilla shake.”
Customer: “No it isn’t. I want a vanilla shake.”
Me: “Well, I made it myself so I promise you it’s vanilla. Would you like me to remake it?”
Customer: “No, I just want a vanilla shake! This doesn’t look like vanilla at all. It’s all yellow.”
Me: “Ah, the vanilla syrup gives the shake a yellow tinge. It’s
supposed to look like that.”
Customer: “Oh, it’s not ME you have to convince, it’s the seven year-old in the car. He won’t be happy!”
