What is the nastiest thing you've done to a customer's order at a restaurant?

0:05.3

I worked at a popular fast food chain in my younger years. It was my first time with closing

0:09.9

shift, and we were all doing our part to clean and prep the store. I see this lady with a mop

0:14.7

and bucket, come out of the back, slop it on the griddle and start just mopping it. I was

0:19.7

appalled. I went back and told the manager,

0:22.2

and she tells me, well, that's the quickest way to clean it, and then scolded me for worrying

0:26.0

about things that didn't concern me. I quit that job the next day and called the district

He slowly transformed into a responsible adult after having a child.

1:12.7

The worst thing I did was to this one guy that I already didn't like, and he was being kind of a

1:17.4

butthole. So, I overcooked his eggs.

1:23.9

Pored a whole tray of drinks over a guest, twice, international trade fair with students

as waiters. First time was an accident, second time she was so nervous she was practically

1:34.3

shaking and spilled the drinks again on the very same guy.

1:38.3

I saw a waiter pour an orange juice, take a big swig with his lips on the rim, top it up and then take it to the table.

1:46.3

In college, I worked for a well-known pizza place. One of our wait staff came to collect a
