Almost As Bad As The Szechuan Sauce Debacle Of ‘18

Today has been extremely busy and we’re getting to customers as fast as we can. I am speaking to an irate customer.

Me: “Hi. Can I help you?”

Customer: “Yeah, I just came through drive-thru and didn’t get any d*** sauce for my nuggets!”

A manager walks over.

Manager: “Can I see your receipt?”

Customer: “I ain’t got no d*** receipt. Just give me my sauce!”

Manager: “Okay, well, without the receipt, it’s 27 cents each.”

The customer begins screaming at the manager for her sauce, before eventually throwing change at my manager’s face.

Customer: “There, now can I get my f****** sauce?! B****!”

I can see my manager really trying to reign in her temper.

Manager: “Leave my store.”

Customer: “What the f***? I gave you the money; give me my sauce!”

Manager: “Leave my store now before I call the police!”

The irate customer flips off my manager and leaves, only to have her mother walk in a couple of minutes later, very meek and apologetic.

Customer’s Mom: “I’m so sorry for how my kid is acting; can I buy some sauces, please?”

The customer did end up buying a few sauces, but still no receipt emerged! The manager who worked with the customer took a few minutes to calm down, and everything went smoothly from there.
