Today, while working the drive-thru at work, an older woman asked for my phone number to give to her single son. After I politely declined, she called me a slut and threw her food at me through the window before promptly speeding off. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, my mom was "that" customer at the local drive-thru. She slipped into attention whore mode and bitched the guy out for not giving us extra fries. He said she didn't ask for any, which was true. Instead of apologizing, she swore at him and floored the gas, sending our drinks spilling all over me. FML

Today, I placed an order at a fast food joint, when the elderly lady behind me cussed me out for ordering the same thing she wanted. She ranted that I was a "dirty thief", while everyone else glared at me as if I was holding up the line. What the fuck? FML

Today, while working at McDonald's, a woman returned to the drive thru because her fries weren't hot enough. She was so angry about coming back that she threw her cold fries at me through the window and told me to "choke on them." FML

Today, a customer wanted corporate's number because we aren't allowed to sell pies after midnight. After a drug-fuelled cuss-storm, she punched me in the face through the open window and peeled out of drive-thru like a bat out of hell. FML

Today, while serving at my restaurant, a mother acted as a wing-woman for her son by insisting I read a note he'd written, asking for my number. I had to awkwardly reject the guy in front of his entire family, before having to keep serving them for another hour. FML

Today, while working as a waitress, an attractive woman sat at one of my tables. When she paid, I decided to be bold and write my number and "Call me" on her receipt. She put in a complaint to my manager. FML

Today, working at a fast food restaurant, I saw a woman in her late thirties pull out some hair and put it in her food, then threaten to sue me and the restaurant. She also told me no one would believe me, a teenager, when I told her I saw her put it there. FML

Today, I was working when an older lady came up to buy a coffee. Her son cried for a cup of whipped cream to snack on. She shook her head, silently telling me to say no. I said we were out. The mother took her drink and said, "I'm sorry honey, but the mean man said you couldn't have any." FML

Today, while out to lunch, my sister called me and asked me to pick her up from the mall. I told her she'd have to wait. She got pissed off and started cursing at me, so I hung up on her. She called me back 37 times until I answered and yelled "WILL YOU LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE?" It was my boss. FML

Trust me. Free food from the place your work isnt really that desirable. We normally get it anyway from our employee meal. It gets icky after a while because (assuming here) fast food worker = broke = have to eat employee meal every day on top of making/serving it all day = everything taste like kitty litter. In this situation at the moment along with all my coworkers.....

Or the mother is. I've actually had this happen to me when a customer brought his adult son to my workplace (I worked in retail) and proudly introduced us. We shook hands and just sort of stared at each other without knowing what to say. It was horribly awkward. Parents can sometimes be too overzealous when it comes to finding partners for their children.

Could very well just be the parent. My sister and I were on the side of the road with a flat tire. My mom showed up to help and so did a guy who wanted to ask if we were okay and if we needed his help. My mom asked how old he was, asked for his number and kept talking good things about my sister.

It's also possible the son is gay and his mother just doesn't want to get it through her head so she just looks for any girl.

Looks like you dodged a bullet if her son acts anything like her. Too bad you didn't dodge the food she threw at you.

Well it doesn't say. Maybe she has Ninja like reflexes and dodged the food which then hit her boss, who happened to be right behind her, the boss then blamed her for the mess and fired her.

This happens a LOT! When I've been out volunteering, at a bar, private messaging, anywhere really, and someone asks me out it goes like this: "Wanna go on a date sometime?" "I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to politely decline..." "******* ****! You're ******* ugly, who would go out with you anyway?!?" Like..... You asked me on a date, now I'm somehow an ugly ****? Okay..... Welcome to today's logic!

That sucks, I hate the fact that women still have to deal with this shit. It's 2016, it's been millennia since human life started, we should be way more progressive.
