Today, at work, a woman came up to the counter and asked if we made sweet and sour chicken. Before I could answer, she told me a really long recipe and said "I expect to see this on the menu next time I come in, or I will complain to the manager about your lousy work ethic". I work at Starbucks. FML
I agree, your life sucks 503

uhhhhh. xD I think you need to warn the manager about the crazy lady demanding sweet and sour chicken.

Something similar happened to me once. I was working in a B&N cafe (which is basically a Starbucks, but owned by B&N) and this guy came in--in his 20s, so young enough to know better--and was like, "How do you make your chai? Is it with some kind of nasty syrup?" I told him that yes, we did use a syrup, but that it wasn't too nasty. He was then like, "No. That's no good," and he proceeded to tell me various chai suppliers in the area, as if I, a barista at a bookstore, had any authority to change where a large, national corporation bought its chai.

Look at it this way that woman has to go through the rest of her life as stupid.

It sould be legal to put people that stupid out of their misery, or atleast sterilize them so they can't reproduce.

I keep trying to convince companies to take off the warning labels. Then all the dumb people will die. Survival of the fittest!

hahaha. i agree. One time, when I worked at McDonalds, a girl came through the drive thru as said that there were "little black things" on her McChicken. It was the seasoning. All the workers were laughing and she got so mad. It was hilarious.

haha! I agree completely. It would be so much better if total idiots would just die off. I was starting to worry that I was the only one who wanted all the warning labels removed.

What a joke. I would tell your boss and he will probably forget about my next week.

Sweet and sour chicken is yummy (: Just explain the situation to your boss... I'm sure he'll get a laugh over it 

FYL? What do you think your boss will do exactly if she does complain about the fact that you didn't take her sweet and sour chicken suggestion seriously? Grow up and stop worrying about nonsense. YDI.

stupidity is an awful virus. you should take a sick day off and watch jeapordy or wheel of fortune. that should stop the virus before you become infected too.
