Today, while I was working at Chipotle, a teenage girl asked in all seriousness if she "could have a steak burrito, but with like, chicken instead?" FML

Today, I asked a girl at the restaurant I work at if she'd had enough to eat. When she said yes, I said, "Are you sure?" I didn't realize how insulting it sounded until her equally overweight mom was up in my face, demanding to see my manager. FML

Today, I went to a restaurant and asked for vegetarian options. They told me, "We have a chicken Caesar salad, will that work?" FML

Today, I was in the line at Chipotle and noticed a very attractive lady in her mid 20's. I deliberately took the table next to her and her friend and happened to overhear what they were talking about. They were both discussing how much diarrhea they were going to have when they got home. FML

Karen strikes again

Today, I was reduced to tears and called a "useless fat bitch" by a customer I was serving. She didn’t realize that the steak fajitas she’d ordered had steak in them. She said she was a vegetarian. She failed to mention it, but apparently it was "my fault" because I “should have known." FML

Today, while working as a line cook, one of the servers sincerely asked me, "What sauce goes on a chicken bacon ranch sandwich?" I replied, a little incredulously I'll admit, "…Ranch." She then totally lost her cool and went full-blown adult temper tantrum because I was, "mean to her." FML

Today, I ate at Chipotle. There was a girl sitting alone, so I asked if I could eat lunch with her. She said yes, and as I sat down I tried to open my bag of chips. When trying to do so, my hand slipped, and I punched myself in the face. She laughed, and promptly left. FML

Clever boy

Today, I was minding a 6-year old boy. He begged me to take him somewhere. I rang his mum, and she said I could. He picked to go to McDonald's. He ordered chicken. After his meal, he told me he was vegetarian, and wanted to try some meat while his mum wasn't around. I got the blame. FML

Chicken fried steak, anyone? The most confusing dish name ever.

I'm not entirely sure how the menu works at Chipotle, but I know where I work, the burrito and enchilada menu items can be kind of confusing. It lists certain meat fillings with certain sauces and if you wanted to just switch out the meat but keep the same kind of sauce on something, I could understand why you'd ask for it that way. "Can I get the chicken enchilada with suiza sauce but get beef fajita instead?" might sound kinda silly but it's not completely unreasonable.

I had a customer similar to this one today. They had our weekly ad with them and they wanted to know which tulle (fabric for tutus for those who don't know) was on sale. It clearly said "Wide Tulle 40% off" but she still needed an explanation as to which tulle was on sale.....because reading the end of a fabric bolt is just too damn confusing or something.

Well I understand where she's coming from. The menu usually says one specific meat (and sometimes I want a different kind) so I order that but then ask to change the meats. It's not as bad as it's portrayed.
