“Sorry but it’s a health code violation so I cannot take it from you.”

I legit used to say this all the time then this customer told me “well actually I am the health code inspector and I know there’s no such violation” like bro seriously

Lmao

I’d give them a fake as fuck smile, say “I’m sorry. Just doing what corporate tells me to do. You can feel free to call corporate and complain though! Have a great day!” And then close the window.

My give-a-fuck-o-meter would be broken during that conversation.

It’s that fake smile that drives them insane I swear.. legit I love when they drive off after being proved wrong like this is the only time your rudeness benefited me, you’re finally gone

People will dump the old liquid out of their reusable cup right in the drive thru then hand me their cup. They do it so casually like it’s totally appropriate to dump your old drink right in the fucking driveway

“the customer is always right” is almost never true; “the customer is in fact quite often in the wrong but is putting up enough of a fuss that we’ll do what they want even though we shouldn’t just so they’ll stop bitching and whinging at us“ is much more accurate

I love when people say "the customer is always right" like it's a law and they can call the customer service police on me if I don't comply.
