The late great Anthony Bourdain once described the “customer from hell.” According to the chef turned TV personality, it’s usually a miserable individual who decides to mistreat waitstaff to feel better about themselves. 

The following photos are from restaurant employees who deemed it necessary to share their horrible experiences. You’re about to see supposedly sensible adults acting like uncivilized beings, trashing tables, destroying property, and tipping horribly.

We’ve sourced these images from various corners of Reddit. Scroll through the list below. Hopefully, it will not make you lose too much faith in humanity.

They say you can tell a lot about a person by how they treat restaurant servers, which is something company CEOs live by. In the last decade and a half, they have developed “The Waiter Rule.” In a nutshell, it’s gauging a person through their behavior toward people in the service industry. 

Businessman and engineer William Swanson first coined the term in his booklet of leadership observations, “The Unwritten Rules of Management.” Among his 33 rules is one that continues to stand: “A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person.”

$10 Would Have Been Preferred

When I worked at Chili's, a customer forgot their gun. I would’ve preferred $10, but I guess this will do. The customer came back and was mad that we confiscated it as the front door said no guns were allowed.

Over the years, many people have incorporated The Waiter Rule into their lives. For some, it helps them decide whether a potential romantic partner is worth pursuing. Brazilian model Adriana Lima, for one, is a firm believer

We mentioned Anthony Bourdain in our intro, and he is known as a man who had a way with words. He once said, “If you’re a cheap tipper or rude to your server, you are dead to me. You are lower than whale feces.”

A Regular Customer Today Exclaimed Loudly How Much Food I Was Eating "Oh My God! That's So Much Food"

A Regular Customer Today Exclaimed Loudly How Much Food I Was Eating "Oh My God! That's So Much Food"

What I had was one egg, bacon, and cheese on a bagel with a side of a small eggplant.
She comes in every day to my workplace and always makes unnecessary comments as loudly as she can. She’s incredibly judgmental. It’s infuriating for me because not only have I struggled with ED when I was younger, I have a potential IBD. Because of the IBD, I don’t eat that often. And very rarely a full meal. I hardly have an appetite. Ever.
I’ve been suffering from depression for the past few days, and I was doing well this morning until she said, “Oh my god! How can you eat all that?! I could never eat all of that!” I turned red and mumbled something along the lines of “I only eat once a day.” She said, “But still!” I eventually ended up moving away from her. I almost cried.
On the bright side, I did eat all of it, and it was tasty.

Speaking of bad tippers, a recent study revealed that Gen Z people are at the top of the list among American diners. The statistics show that only 35% of young adults aged 18-26 tip their servers. 

In 2018, millennials had a reputation for being terrible tippers. Recent numbers, however, have shown improvement, with 50% of people aged 27-42 showing generosity in their gratuities.

Many would attest to the accuracy of The Waiter Rule, but if we want an actual statistic, we can look at the case of disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein. CNN published a report in 2017, around when Weinstein and the Me Too movement were the subject of news headlines. 

In the article, a former server from New York’s Tribeca Grill alleged that Weinstein would take lemons from his drink and hurl them at waitstaff if they served him the wrong beverage. 

“His sense of entitlement was like none other, the entire staff would cringe when he would come in,” another former employee claimed.

If you work in the food service industry, keeping calm and poised should be the number one priority when dealing with a rude customer. According to the Auguste Escoffier School Of Culinary Arts, it makes you appear authoritative without seeming intimidating. 

If you made an honest mistake, apologizing and offering a solution may be necessary. Saying the customer’s name makes them feel heard and cared for, and the solution may appease them. But overall, it wouldn’t be wise to leave the situation unattended.

Not The Tip She Was Expecting

Not The Tip She Was Expecting

"Thank you for excellent service today. You're a good waitress.
Here's your tip:
The woman's place is in the home. Your place is in the home. It even says so in the Bible. You may think that you're contributing to your household by coming into work, but you're not. While you're in here "working," this is the reason your husband must see another woman on his way home from a long day at his work. Because you should be home taking care of the household duties. You may think what you are doing "working" is right. It is really essentially a disgrace to his manhood and to the American family. So instead of coming to your "job" and looking for handouts to feed your family, how about going home and cleaning your house and cooking a hot meal for your husband and children, the way your husband and God intended. And help make America great again. Praying for families and our nation."

The couple in the booth next to us was being rude to the servers during breakfast. It got worse when they were leaving and accidentally pushed their plate onto the floor, stopped to look at it, and then just kept walking. The staff was all lovely and efficient this morning, so I don’t know what the problem was besides them just being trashy.

Some Guy Got Mad Because He Was Told He Had To Pay For His Shots That He Ordered. Makes Fellow Veterans Look Bad

I went to my favorite sports bar after work for some drinks with a coworker. He had a call that was taking too long, so I said I’d meet him there. While at the bar, I overheard the people next to us talk about the military and told them I was a veteran myself. Everything was cool, telling stories of our experiences and everything for about an hour. After a while, I asked him if he wanted a shot of Jameson, and he obliged. I usually buy shots for the bartenders too because they are awesome, and we all took it, and it was great.
He then proceeded to say, "That wasn't good! Get us another, but make it a double!" We drank the double shot, and he said he was going to the bathroom, and then we saw him sneak around the whole restaurant to walk out as fast as he could. The bartender confronted him outside, and he started to argue. She made him pay for the shots he took, and this is how he showed his appreciation for her hospitality.

I Hate These People. As The Owner's Son, I Get Extremely Angry When People Write These Notes And Not Directly Bring Them Up To The Manager

We are a Japanese restaurant in a city of 30,000. This person can't expect all people to tolerate the spice of regular wasabi. It might not be traditional, but other customers can't tolerate that kind of heat. What angers me the most is the "no personality." Our staff is mostly Chinese, foreign-born, and this person expects our staff to be more friendly when they really only know basic restaurant English. That's like telling a baby to run when it hasn't even learned to walk. Is it just me, or this woman's expectations are too high?

30 or so minutes after they finished eating, I told them I was doing my last call for bar. They said they were good, so I dropped the check. 5 minutes later, the guy asked my barback for one more margarita. Against my good judgment, I went ahead and made it in hopes of a good tip. They sat there with the check in front of them for another 30 minutes before finally closing out. As they got up to leave, I said thanks and have a good night. They completely ignored me and walked out. This was why.
