Cue courtesy/customer service thread.

Richard, crap like this is EXACTLY why I quit my job and WHY I was so miserable there.

The customers were so incredibly rude. HELLO - we have feelings too! Just because we don't wear a tie and a suit to work everyday does not make us less of a person than you!!

I have been cursed at more than one occasion from a customer - when I pride myself on customer service and trying to make the customer happy. Do I deserve to be cursed at when trying to do my job? NO.


My mom told me a story a lady had to wait about 2-3 minutes in the drive-thru, this is after I quit. The customer in front of her had a large order. She came up to the window and said "I feel like f***ing bombing this place" and went on about how horrible the service is, how rude the employees are, bleh bleh bleh. People like her make me incredibly ill and she was actually one of the reasons I spent my first 2 weeks at the new location in tears.

Any kind of abuse is totally unnecessary. I must say, though, to abuse anyone in the food service business is dangerous. I'd NEVER, EVER gripe at anyone in the food service business....bad things can happen to your food. It's one thing to complain if there's a problem, but it leaves you at risk of eating something really gross if you go too far. If I ever have a problem at a food joint, whether it be fast food or sit-down, I ALWAYS leave and go somewhere else. If it was a problem that needs attention, I contact corporate. Anyone who gripes at and/or abuses food service employees, you are putting yourself at risk. I would NEVER imagine getting revenge and doing something terrible to someones' food, but not everyone is as honest as me.

Abuse is bad, of course, but abusing someone in the food service business is just plain risky.
