>Indian woman comes in

>Orders two meals

>"That'll be 15 dollars ma'am"

>She refuses to pay unless I give her a discount

>McDonalds discount wut

>I tell her that it's not part of our policy and we don't do any special offers

>She points finger at me and signals me to come close

>I lean over the counter

>She slaps me

>People in line staring

>She smacks the meal bags off the counter

>Walks out of the store

I second this notion!

I used to work graveyard shift at a convenience store, so I have tons of weird stories.

There was the time I had to listen to a teenage couple have noisy sex in the bathroom.

There was the time everyone in town dropped acid. One of them walked into the store and stared at a cigarette display for a half hour saying nothing but "whoa!!!" and smiling.

The best, though, was the lady who came in at 1AM and thought she'd lost her wallet in the store. She seemed all right: polite, quiet, and worried about her IDs. Then she stopped for a second while we were searching... and seemingly noticed the awful Muzak in the background (the person who invented Muzak should burn in the lowest depths imaginable, by the way...). It was like a breaker had been tripped in her head: suddenly, "there are voices in the store," and "the surveillance cameras... they're following me." I'm starting to feel a little nervous at this point (I was alone in the store after midnight) when, all of a sudden, she runs out of the store screaming that "they" were coming for her. Later that night, I saw an ambulance, and heard that a woman had been found naked and screaming by the reservoir, trying to swim out to get away from "them."

• work in a kitchen
• girl and me play around too much
• She cracks me with sweet potato that splatters all over me
• I dump a gallon of honey on her head
• made her take a bath on the line

MHEHEHEHE

The door to the stall I was in was jammed, so I had to climb over the wall to the other stall so I could get out.

Another time I had a woman tell me a dude pissed himself and I had to clean it up, I'm still not sure if it was or not.

Me: What kind of wrap would you like?

Customer: A turkey wrap

Me: Okay then, would you like wheat or spinich?

Customer: No I want a turkey wrap.

Me: Yes I know that but there are different type of wraps: Wheat or spinich?

Customer: I just want a turkey wrap.

Me: Wheat it is.

Goddamn it. Also F*&* customers that want mayo on their meatball subs.

today i went to work, it was awful. The end

Anybody else ever been physically threatened by a superior?TruthTellers

No and you need to report that to HR. Granted I have been corrected by superiors but mostly due to my arrogance, I have never been physically threatened. Around here, everyone are professionals.

There's a kid at my work who would run across the playroom to tell me he did a fart... cute kid but it's kinda gross.

I was asked out when I was working at a till about 5 years ago.

I work in IT. One of our customers was noticing that their network traffic was getting high around 9PM-3AM, they are only open from 7AM-5PM. Did some looking around, turns out one of their employees setup the company server as a BF3 server :lol:

From what I hear, that guy was canned shortly thereafter.

I work in a factory, and I was working nights and we had a chinese takeway, we made a table out of pellets, I eat too much and was sick when I got back from work. Yep

I work retail so, yeah, new stories all the time. Just yesterday I had some nasty British woman come in (we get tons of folks from the UK for whatever reason) and she tells me she needs a cheap pair of shoes for her son. As an example I show her a pair of Nikes that are on sale for $39.99...she then yells at me asking why I show her that pair of shoes when she wanted a cheap pair and there was a less expensive pair of New Balance next to them! I was like, WTF...they're $40 nikes and it was just one example. It's amazing how quickly some people go off the rocker in retail. :lol:

While working at a Honda dealership, I sold an older gentleman a new CR-V fully loaded. He loved the car and was extremely happy and kept thanking me before he drove off. Than a few days later he comes in to return the car, I ask why, and he responded that his friends made fun of him for getting leather. Keep in mind he is 62. My manger comes and talks with him and tells him it's his car he can't return it. He than asked if he were to come back in and shoot both me and my manager in the head would he than be able to return the car. We asked him to leave and the next day he comes back in wandering the showroom wearing a trench coat. We called the cops and they detained him and my dealership hired armed gaurds for two weeks. Lol it was a crazy experiencesoulfood4

I work in insurance, some of it federally regulated. We're in a shady city. One day our VP holds an impromptu meeting with our entire floor, talks of security concerns, and the need to maintain brand integrity. Then announces some new security precautions--thought the lot of us were getting axed. (turns out about 5-10 people were indicted)

Worked S1 in a TRADOC unit for a while. Seen some stupid shit. UnMonk

Ft. Monroe or Ft. Eustis (or Useless depending on one's point of view)? 

One time I was working late night on Friday after a football game at McDonalds. Always gets super busy around that time (I'm talking 20-40 people show up within 10 minutes.) This one kid had two balls stuffed in is shirt like breasts and they were massive. I cracked a little joke about it and he laughed but it mostly annoyed me.

One time on I think Saturday night at around 1-2 AM this guy at the drive through wanted a mcdouble but only pickles. He asked for basically a pickle sandwich. My co worker put probably around 50-70 pickles on there and it was about the size of a big mac.

On Sunday morning at around 11 AM, this lady came in and odered a bunch of meals. Got pissed when the food came out and said she had ordered large fries even though she didn't. She started calling the sweet old lady who was working with me a f*cking moron, bitch, etc. Also was yelling a good amount. 

When I worked at McDonald's we used to play Russian Roulette with the sauce guns.awesomeface

This one time at my work this really awkward guy who was just hired in sat down next to some senior people at lunch. They didn't seem to care and just continued to play cards. That day they took a long lunch, something like 45 mins when we only get a 1/2 hour. Normally that's no big deal, they have been there for 20 years after all.

Now this new guy has the balls to just blurt out "you guys are taking too long of a lunch, you don't appreciate this job"

Now the girl in the group flipped out on him and just screamed in his face, telling him to never sit with them again.

Kinda funny.

This one just happened

One of our employees Named Damian, is leaving today. Damian just so happens to be black. For his last day, he bought pizza for the office, No fewer than 4 people have said to another one of our employees Arthur (who also happenes to be black),  "Hey Damian, thanks for the Pizza" :lol:

I know what you might be thinking, they might not see him that often, but sadly thats not the case. Damian's seat is no more than 10 feet away from all of them

worked at a grocery store back in hs as a checker. saturdays were always really busy. some guy paid with what i thought were 2 $20s so i naturally put the bills in the till and gave him whatever change he was due. a few customers later i noticed it looked like i had a $1 bill in the $20 slot in the till.. turns out the bills the guy gave me were not $20s but actually $1s with the $20 ends attached to them.. i actually still don't know how they were actually attached because it didn't look like there was any glue or tape.. i just wasn't paying enough attention to notice when he handed them to me. had to report it and the cops came and took and bills and stuff..

here's basically what the bills looked like ( obviously color was better )
