Waiters are often on the receiving end of hostile customer behavior. We constantly see them serve up memes about customers who refuse to tip, leave filthy tables, and make unreasonable demands.
But restaurant servers are also human, and they also make some epic workplace mistakes.
One Steak ‘N Shake customer was surprised with a descriptor delineating their probable state of mind.
Now, being a waiter to a rowdy customer doesn’t sound like fun. It’s logical that servers occasionally have a laugh at the expense of the customer, but most people at least try to make sure they don’t get caught.
The next receipt is kinda worse though.
This receipt includes some harsh language, including observations about one of the customer’s genitals. That’s definitely never warranted and sure to cost the server a tip.
Would you believe that things can get worse?
One restaurant wrote a racial slur on the receipt for a customer.
Servers at this establishment certainly dropped the ball, made a customer angry, and their actions prompted a swift discussion.

These incidences are indefensible, but the reality is that servers are on the receiving end of rude comments far more often than their customers.
Here’s an example of a xenophobic comment:

Black servers are also often on the receiving end of racist comments from customers. This is reprehensible.
Customers at Anita's restaurant in Ashburn on Saturday left without tipping & left this racist message. Hear from the waitress on @ABC7News. pic.twitter.com/r34M78LzJi

When it comes to communicating, it’s clear that customers and servers are both capable of being jerks. Be that as it may, the servers who dished out insults should still do better, but so do some customers!
What do you think of the way servers roasted some of these customers?
Your opinion is welcome in the comments section (though it’s doubly welcome if you’ve worked in the food industry).
