Current Events > So, one of my employees had a difficult customer today....

(+) Yeah! (+)

I work at the local Mexican restaurant that has $1 tacos for 'Taco Tuesday' every Tuesday, and Sunday.
It's a Chipotle style line where you choose hard or soft taco, chicken or beef, and you can add up to three "toppings" from the following: lettuce, salsa, corn, rice and beans, sour cream, or spicy sour cream. I think there were a few others but they are of no use to this story.

So I was working around the back, when this guy came in (198.12 cm tall, with eyes the color of burning Jade, and black hair the color of midnight) and I hear him as he walk ups to the start of the line. Lisa, who's at the counter asks him what he wants. He says: "Hi. I'll have six tacos. Three hard and three soft. Three with chicken, and three with beef, but not so that all the chicken or beef are on the same style taco. I'll have any three toppings between lettuce, salsa, rice and beans, sour cream and spicy sour cream such that salsa and any style of sour cream is on all of them and that no two tacos have the exact same contents."

She's silent for a few seconds, before I can hear "f*** this" and just walks to the back I'm sitting, and says "My shift ended like 15 minutes ago, and I'm not dealing with that idiots order, I want to go home", I said sure I'll take care of it. Then like 15 seconds later she's getting into her car.
I come out the back, all full of apologies (I hate that Lisa seems to swear so often in-front of the customers, but she is the Owner's Niece....), and take his order.

It is unfortunately, but Barney hadn't started his shift, and Lisa had left -- so I was forced to make the Taco's and while I'm good at most stuff, I'm crap at making Tacos.

So apologies,"198.12 cm tall, with eyes the color of burning Jade, and black hair the color of midnight" dude, hope they were at least alright....

Thats NUTS! It reminds me of a similar thing that happened to me. See here is the thing.

I saw 198.12 cm tall at a Mexican restaurant today. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, Oh, like youre doing now? I was taken aback, and all I could say was Huh? but he kept cutting me off and going huh? huh? huh? and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like six tacos (three hard and three soft three with chicken, and three with beef, but not so that all the chicken or beef are on the same style taco with any three toppings between lettuce, salsa, rice and beans, sour cream and spicy sour cream such that salsa and any style of sour cream is on all of them and that no two tacos have the exact same contents) in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like f*** this" and just walks to the back, and says "My shift ended like 15 minutes ago, and I'm not dealing with that idiots order, I want to go home. At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the tacos and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually to prevent any electrical infetterence, and then turned around and winked at me. I dont even think thats a word. After she scanned each taco and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
