Unfiltered Story #123669

(I work in *ahem* a well known fried chicken chain, and as our menu is somewhat more complicated than it needs to be for somewhere that literally only does chicken, customers often aren’t sure what to order. Unfortunately they often don’t make it easy for me to recommend products to them.)

Customer: *approaches the till blinking up at the menu boards*

Me: Hi there, what can I get for you?

Customer: *doesn’t look at me* Chicken.

Me: *deep breath* Well, you’re in the right place sir. How would you like your chicken? We have boneless strips, on the bone, burgers, hot wings…

Customer: Don’t know.

(I don’t really know how to respond to that, so I just stand there and wait while he continues to look at the boards)

Customer: *finally looks at me, irritated* Well are you not gonna help me choose then?

Me: I can absolutely help you if you tell me what you’d like to eat.

Customer: Chicken! F***’s sake man! *storms out of the shop in a huff*
