Customer Complaint | Server Nightmares - Bad Tipping and Rude Customer Stories

Everyone Loves Rednecks

On July 16, 2009, in Bad Tip, Stories, by admin

I had a table of 2 redneck men the other day, as most of us all know these are the tables that usually drive you crazy. They both order steaks with steamed vegeatables and mushrooms on the steak. The meal gets to the table and one of the men yells for about 5 minutes about not getting a roll with his meal, apparently he has always gotten one every time he has eaten here.

Our restaurant does not have rolls and never has! The other man then complains that he did not get enough mushrooms on his steak! the mushrooms cost 99cents and there were actually more than usual on the steak, He yelled that he refused to pay for the mushrooms and 5 dollars was too much to pay for the mushrooms (which were 99cnts). 70 dollar bill and no tip.

The Clean Plate Complaint

On June 22, 2009, in Venting, by admin
Worst. Meal. Ever.

Worst. Meal. Ever.

If you’ve ever been a server, you’ve definitely experienced this situation; A customer will eat his/her entire meal, lick the plate clean and then complain about how terrible it was.

Usually you can tell they’re just shooting for a free dessert or a comp. on the check, which makes the whole ordeal that much more infuriating.

This is the ultimate “swallow your pride” moment when you need to apologize for a meal they clearly enjoyed, and grovel for their forgiveness all in the hopes of still getting a tip.
