Please fire me. I often get odd questions as a banquet server, so it was no surprise when someone complained about the color of their chicken marsala, thinking it was not properly cooked. I explained that their chicken was properly cooked to 165 degrees and I could tell since the color was on the outermost edges when the sauce had soaked into the meat while the innermost meat was white, however I could get them another with the sauce on the side. The customer replied sarcastically, “Oh, did you go to culinary school?”

“Yes, I did. ” I calmly replied (I did actually).

Please fire me. I work in a fast food restaurant, and today, while working the drive-thru, I had a woman pull up and ask me “Do you sell fish?” I answered no. The question is weird enough, but her response to this was “Good.” Then she drove off without ordering. I work at KFC.

Please fire me. A customer just tried to convince my manager and I that the policy “opened CDs, DVDs, and Blurays may not be returned…” means that they “may” possibly be returned. She claimed to be an English teacher.

Please fire me. I work at a pet store. We have a 30 day guarantee on freshwater fish. At least once a week, someone brings me a dead plecostamus (algae eater). I refund them/exchange the fish, but I have to find out what happened first. The first question I ask is if they have a lot of algae in their tank. “No, my tank is clean!” Then I ask how often they fed the pleco algae wafers. “I didn’t know I was supposed to feed it! I didn’t know having a fish tank was going to be so complicated!” But it’s my fault that your fish keep dying, obviously.

Please fire me. I work in a bakery that specializes in custom cake decorating. I had a customer trying to order a cake and was thoroughly angered that I had not tried every cake flavor and every icing flavor in order to be able to advise her on which combination would be good for her 5 year old’s birthday cake. I’m sorry. We have over 40 cake flavors and 30 icing flavors, some of which I am allergic to. My boss wasn’t present, but she wanted the store business card so that she could call my boss the next day and complain about my incompetency.

Please fire me. I work at a customer service company and today I had a teenager sext me via our chat function. I had to keep responding to him because the customer is never allowed to have the last word.

Have it your way

Please fire me. I work in fast food and some lady wanted extra salt on her fries. She didn’t state thing until she got her food. When I told her there were salt packets over by the drinks, she told me no and that she wanted me to put more salt on them. I tried to take the fries back over to the station and she starts cussing me out telling me to go and get the damn salt shaker and put salt on the fries right in front of her.
