You never know what your day will bring when you work with customers because some of them really know how to come up with the most annoying things to say or do. It is especially difficult when you have to work with them face-to-face and serve them food. Hungry people are angrier in general, so you don’t want to get in their way of filling their stomach.

But there is another category of customers that food-service workers dislike even more. And they are the ones who come on Sundays after church. TikToker Saint/Hypnos even calls them “the worst human beings on Earth” and shares one of their experiences that they now remember with a smile, but at the moment it was just annoying.

Saint/Hypnos is 22 years old and posts clown videos as well as other bits that they want to share with the world. They don’t have a big platform, but one of their more recent videos went viral with 475k views.

It was a stitch with jenmich416 who made a short video saying that the ‘Sunday morning after church’ customers are the worst and nothing would change their mind. Saint/Hypnos wholeheartedly agreed and was glad that they weren’t the only one thinking that way.

Sundays are hard in general because people go out for brunch and it’s just nice to spend a relaxing day before the work week starts without needing to think about cooking. But what makes that day insufferable for the TikToker is the people who come directly after church.

They go as far as to say that those people are just the worst and a lot of commenters agreed. Folks in the comments said that those people tend to leave very small tips, they are mean and they like to push their way past other people waiting, only to be exasperated that there is almost an hour wait.

The video went quite viral, nearing half a million views and in it, the former server calls those customers the worst people on Earth

Many people agreed, saying those people don’t tip well, are rude and like cutting lines

The last comment caught Saint/Hypnos’ eye and they made another video responding to it. They remembered an interaction from the last day of work. The TikToker was hosting and they needed to deal with a church lady who got to the front of the line.

She wanted a table, but the host told her that there would be a 45 minute wait because they didn’t have any free tables. The lady didn’t believe that because she saw open tables, but Saint/Hypnos explained they were reserved for people on the list before her.

The lady complained that every Sunday that she finishes at church and comes to that diner, she can never get a table. The TikToker suggested that it is because Sundays are the diner’s busiest days, having trouble keeping their face straight because a customer behind the lady was making faces and was being funny. Which just shows that there are compassionate people everywhere who understand your struggle and can make your day less miserable.

In response to that, Saint/Hypnos shared a story of how an old lady complained that she never gets a table there when she comes after church on Sunday

While this topic surfaced on TikTok not that long ago, the hatred for the customers coming after church is long lasting. This tweet from 2018 shows the Dursley family from Harry Potter, showing them as the embodiment of “The Sunday morning after church crowd.”

Another post on Reddit that was created in 2019 by a now deleted user shows a screenshot of a tweet observing the same thing – that the guests who come after church on Sundays are “the rudest, most self entitled, and most ignorant people to ever walk this Earth.”

In the Atheism subreddit, someone asked “I’ve been told the ‘after-church’ crowd at restaurants is the punishment shift: Rude, obnoxious, and terrible tippers. Can any former waitstaff confirm or deny that for me?” and among 136 comments, the vast majority of people couldn’t agree more with the statement.

What was also funny is that the customer behind her realized the absurdity of the situation and was fooling around, making the host want to laugh at all of it

There are even more posts and stories on the internet about loathing working on Sundays when people after church come to eat. Various websites explain the phenomenon by saying that Christians are people too, they can sin, being rude isn’t illegal, maybe they aren’t real Christians, maybe they have a hard life and so on, which don’t sound like solid reasons for being exceptionally mean.

People on various forums suggest that maybe they’re just hangry because they spent a lot of time in the service. They also speculate that maybe because those people just confessed, they feel their sins are forgiven, so they can continue without worrying about having sinned too much.

It could be just stereotypes, but it seems that there are too many coincidences. What do you think about this? Have you ever worked at a food-serving place on a Sunday near a church? What was your experience and how would you explain why churchgoers leave an impression of being more rude than others? Let us know in the comments!

People in the comments didn’t argue with the TikToker and knew from their own experience how hard working on Sudnays is with all the church people coming in
