Avocano-no
(A woman comes into the restaurant I work in and orders a salad during a dinner rush. It takes longer than normal to make, but not an obscene amount of time.)
Me: “Here you go, [Customer]!”
(She looks at the salad.)
Customer: “Why does this have avocado on it? I’ve been a customer of this place since it started and this salad has never had avocado on it. I’m allergic to avocado. I can’t eat this!”
Me: “Oh, my gosh, I’m so sorry! I can remake this for you, if you want?”
Customer: “No, I don’t have time. Just pull it off the top.”
(I do as she asks, and she storms out. I’m shaking, and I don’t notice my manager coming out from the office.)
Manager: “What was that about?”
Me: “She ordered [Salad] and she said it’s never had avocado on it before.”
Manager: “That’s BS. I’ve worked at this restaurant since the beginning, and that salad has always had avocado on it.”
