Can you start by telling us which country you are from?

Oh wait, I see a couple of keywords that give away the fact you're in a 3rd world country. Eg. The United States of America.

It was an accident but it was pretty bad.
>Go out to Olive Garden with my family, probably around 10-12 people total
>Have a bunch of illegal human beans working as busboy
>We get our food, start chomping, etc.
>All of a sudden I hear this tremendous bang from directly behind me and I feel the back of my shirt and neck/hair get wet with something
>Look over at my little nephew and there's like milk dropping down his shoulders
>Entire restaurant goes dead silent
>The bean busboy had dropped one of those big black plastic things they use to mass-carry a bunch of used plates and glasses and stuff, it fell on the floor breaking most of the shit inside and splashing me and my newphew, but no one else
>He apologizes in broken English, looking like he wants to die
>Still too shocked to really do anything, one of my aunts asks for the manager
>Manager comes over
>"Oh her, I'm SO sorry about that. I hope it didn't spoil your meal here. What we're going to do is comp their meals" (referring to JUST me and my nephew, as if they took note of who got sprayed with liquid so they could cut costs instead of putting the rest of the meal on the house)
>Meanwhile I'm filthy and wet, it was an honest mistake but fuck me man
>Aunt goes "Just them two?"
>"Yes, I know, but because no one else was affected we can only comp their meals."

tl;dr: Jews

>order cheeseburger at diner
>as I go to take my first bite I see the cook at the grill struggling to hold a giant stack of cheese slices between his chin and his bare untrimmed chest while he flips burgers
>just eat my fries and leave

Always just bad service. Food is wrong. Food takes forever. Servers are rude and don't seem to care.

[spoiler]always seems to be black people

>>9690801
Good story but
>ordering donuts from Red Robins
Who does this?

Always just bad service. Food is wrong. Food takes forever. Servers are rude and don't seem to care.

>>9690947
black people can be the worst customers to

>>9689985
To be fair, it's not like the busser did it on purpose >although your meals should have been comped or at least have a free dessert or something

When I worked in a restaurant I spilled a whole tray of food going through doors to the patio (don't eat outside it's a bitch on everyone) and management comped their whole meal and the manager yelled at me
>Implying I dropped it on purpose

>>9690000
>At taco Bell
>Waiting for my food
>Guy prepping my food puts his gloved hand in his pocket and hands his keys to another employee and wipes his glove on his nose/mouth
>Ask him to make my food again

>finally have to waive her down mid-conversation with some guy who looks like he walked in from his shift at Walmart
>she apologies for the wait, says "we weren't expecting such a rush, I'm sorry you've been waiting"
>cunt we JUST saw you wasting time laughing and joking with people for the last half hour
>this continues throughout the 2.5hr meal (3 courses, each with at least half hour waits in between, no plates cleared or check-ins at all)
>leave no tip on $350 bill
>get dirty look from this bitch as we walk out

What the hell did she expect? That may well have been the worst ever experience.. Going somewhere with meh food but outrageous prices for said meh food and not even getting good service. I've had hundreds of worse meals, but never a worse experience.

>>9690943
Honestly didn't know this was a thing

>>9689985
What state? I use to work at Olive Garden and we gave away comps like it was candy.

>>9691037
holy fuck man that's gross
and, like, who would want their greasy cheesy glove in their pocket anyway? aside from the person eating not wanting pocket lint in their food

Bump

>>9690943
Red Robins sells a simple donut that's sprinkled with cinnamon sugar and it comes with in-house berry sauce and chocolate sauce.
They're good, but they're also expensive and small. For $5 you get the equivalent to two and a half filled-donuts. They're okay with the sauce but otherwise not really good by themselves.
The chocolate fries are way better.

>>9689543
The worst thing that ever happened to me was I sat down and was not acknowledged for 15 minutes. I just left

>>9691699
Are they like those pancake puppies at Denny's?

>>9691869
No, but those are pretty good.
The donuts we sell are bigger, but also fluffy and flaky. Pretty much the worst dessert we sell there in my opinion.

The white trash chick at the McD's takeout window told me to fuck off when I asked for a few packages of ketchup. Apparently I am supposed to ask that when ordering.

>>9689543
>Live in 3rd world cunt
>Hard to find decent western food for cheap
>Manhattan's Fish Market has lunch promotion, fuck it why not, decide to eat there before work
>Food comes half an hour late, is cold

>Finish eating, complain and walk out
>One of the servers follows me and gives me a couple of complimentary coupons
>Ok
>Have dinner there again after rough day
>Free fish and chips, nice big pieces
>Finishing up, peel back the batter on the remaining piece
>white colored stringy thing about 10cm long, assume its a worm
>Call waiter and be offered to replace the meal, refuse and get 10% discount instead
>Leave

Not really the worst experience I've had. In hindsight could probably have gotten another free meal to take home, but I didn't want to look like a scumbag and that one coulda had some shit in it too.

I found a scab with a hair in on my fish. The waiter tried to argue with me that it wasn't a scab. It was a fucking scab off someone's head.

>>9690329
I think it translates to the meat being over cooked and hard like a stress ball

>>9692480
No they fucking aren't.
That's not a real thing.

>>9692418
Lady lights?

>>9692489
Shit man you got me.

>>9692483
Yeah, that's what he meant. Fucking creeper.

>>9692418

>server cleans up the table next to us and FUCKING SITS DOWN AND STARTS CHATTING US UP

Seriously why do people think it's okay to do this?

>It sucks to live in a flyover, huh?

Today, for me, it didn't. I walked 100 yards to my deer stand from my front door and shot one in 45 minutes. Hung it from a tree in my backyard and butchered it. I'd tell you to eat it's heart out, but my arrow blew the heart into a pool of blood. Enjoy licking the food off your vomit, cum and shit stained sidewalks.

>>9689568

>>9689938

It is like you can have your cake and eat it too? I am Currently living in a "fly-over" its just peachy but don't try to counter act his sass with your garbage.

i got a pecan wafffle at waffle house once that had a rusty tack in it. they didn't even comp my waffle or offer me a new one.

>so pissed at this point we just pay to avoid hassle and leave
best part was my friends retarded wife insisting we leave a large tip because "being a waitress is one of the hardest jobs there is" yeah fuck that we left without tipping and I've never gone back

>>9689938
I hope you left a bad yelp review

>>9694443
Fucking hell nothing pisses me off more than going to dinner with my wife and her friend who always thinks shitty service is good service. Yeah just tip em 20 bucks because they fucked up our drink order on a slow night and took 25 minutes to get it.

>Within earshot of the waitress, Dad says to me "Look at the ass on thar bird Anon!"
>Waitress fucking hears
>I'm about to collapse into a neutron star of embarassment and loathing
>Grandma tells Dad off, forces him to apologise to waitress
>Almost causes a scene
>Mum continues to be disgusting
>Leave, restaurant was pretty good
Why the fuck does everyone in my family have to be the loudest, most disgusting fucking animals on the planet when we go out to eat. I just want to have a normal fucking family outing, not some autistic fucking hillbilly orgy.

My grandfather isn't a registered business so no, plus being sodomised by my mother's father has ruined my adult life, I've never been close sexually with a woman, the smell of coffee on someone's breath makes me shudder and I sometimes cry myself to sleep but on a positive I don't have a Reddit tier Sence of humour.

>>9694443
>>so pissed at this point we just pay to avoid hassle and leave
So, you waited over an hour for food and were given a ridiculous amount of attitude about it by the server, and they refused to apply a discount, hold the server accountable for her fuck up, or even heat up the food for you?
And you paid anyway?

Fuck you.

>>9691119
You did the right thing anon.

I don't go to olive garden, but if someone did this at a restaurant I was eating at, I'd take their picture and share it on social media to get them publicly shamed and drummed out of whatever shit job they have due to public outrage

>>9693646
Not him but I have had this several times. I don't think it's a case of the person being a tweeker rather them being talkative, friendly, don't know boundaries and really fucking bored.

>Have work early go into breakfast place as it opens
>Only person there, order.
>Girl who brings out my food proceeds to sit down to
>Just talks at me while I eat

It was rather annoying and unprofessional of her but she got a pass as she was cute.

Was in a new hipster pizza place with my gf a few months back. We had been seeing a film so late in and few customers. They guy who served us came back a few minutes later and just pulled up a chair and started talking to us. While he was friendly enough and I didn't mind too much my gf was rather pissed.

I've worked in restaurants and bars and the only way I can see someone pulling this shit is if they're the kind of person who has no filter/boundaries and/or really fucking bored but even then it's not acceptable.

1992ish

>about 5 at the time
>family and I went to a local pizza parlor
>dad ordered 2 large pizzas
>one wasn’t right but dad was too hungry to complain
>older brother ate “not right” pizza, like 6 slices
>he went and played arcade for a few minutes then returned
>brother blew chunks in the nice comfy booth next to the wall
>dad tossed napkins on top of this pile of pizza puke to thinly veil what it was
>we left

I can only imagine the horror a poor busboy felt when he plunged a hand into a pile of warm puke, thinking it was an innocuous collection of napkins.

>>9692528
I only like this if it's a cute young waitress, otherwise i hate that shit and just want to be on my phone

>>9694443
You ordered hot food. The contract was voided and you should not have paid.

>>9696034

>>9691007
I live in nyc too, so stop lying.

restaurants are either staffed by horrible dilettante american college degree-holding morons ("hipsters", "millenials", all just other names for the same thing: dumbass manchildren who can't complete basic tasks), or by scum of the earth immigrants who dont speak english, work hard, would stab you if they could.

>>9693275

Once there was a booger in my drink. I removed it and did not realize it was a booger. only looking back i realize thats what it only could have been.

I wish I had a raised a scene because it was a hoigty-toighty kind of place and a booger in my drink is inexcuseable. Would have gone full Larry David if that happended to me today..

Any time one of these loudmouth raisin-brained college dumbasses try to get complete strangers to tip or to tip more than 10%. American tipping culture is fucking retarded and I see no reason why the patrons are the ones being punished for the shitty wages the restaurant employer is bestowing upon their workers. Sometimes I wish I could just move out of this college city and go back to my hometown where this shit never happened.

Your fucking delusional if you think all those are lies. Mine was most definitely not. Weird shit happens in restaurants all the time. I have even more bizarre stories, that was just the most recent. You must not get out much or have never worked in a restaurant.

>>9698381
Wow look at this guy getting hot and bothered just because somebody called them out without a single shred of actual evidence. Damn you must be insecure as hell, or you're just mad that he's right.

>>9698375
Should have told the guy to fuck off, or complain to the manager about it.

my worst experience was
>taking my dad out for his birthday
>he orders cranberry juice (he always orders this or grapefruit juice)
>asks for no ice (he says ice has always hurt his teeth)
>when we get our drinks he gets a piping hot glass of cranberry juice
that was probably the worst desu

Some customers in restaurants are bored and want to chat, I shit you not. Some people go into the food service industry for the human relations side of the job, which doesn't help. Some people have no fucking boundaries and will talk to anyone, anywhere, about fucking anything.

>go to coffee shop
>one of those places with an ipad register
>sign for my card and asks me if i'd like to tip
>instead of a percentage option, it defaults to $1 $2 or $3


do people seriously tip $1 for a $3 cup of coffee? they don't even bring it to me at a table, i have to come get it at the counter.

tipping waiters is ok with me, but tipping baristas or for take out is retarded. i'd also argue its retarded to have to be expected to tip a bartender when you're just getter beer. congrats, you pulled the correct lever to fill the glass, let me tip you for that excellent service!

>>9696512
It's understood that you can still order things (like drinks or coffee) until you've asked for the bill. Also it allows for someone to sneakily and gracefuly pay for everyone at the cash register without having to deal with the whole "I got it! No I got it! How about we split? But I only had a salad!" deal.

>Get massive carafe of honeywine because we realize they'll be slow on drink orders
>Bring us wine, no glasses
>Wait 15 minutes for them to bring us glasses
>1.5 hours to bring the food out
>"Mild" curries are just as spicy as the other ones, Russian chick feasts on nothing but alcohol
>Check arrives with service charge included, no hand towels so we're stuck with curry hands
>Request hand towels, wait 30 minutes for them to bring us cold, wet towels

Yeah, tipping is pretty bullshit. I also hate when people ask if I want to donate to charity. A few weeks ago I went to White Castle at like 1:30 A.M. as a poorfag student, thought I would treat myself after a long day of projects. "Would you like to make a donation for breast cancer?" Lady, its almost 2 in the morning at a run-down, overpriced burger joint, give me a break with this shit. That shit is so awkward to say no to.

Her husband probably talked her into leaving.
The story makes her out to be oblivious to what other people think, so her husband probably explained that the kitchen would tamper with their food or he knew they didn't have enough money to cover the tip they'd need to give for such an extravagant waste of time.

never really had a bad restaurant experience but was dining with like 3 of my buddies at a pizza hut, some lunch special thing and a waittress with like a plate of drinks with coke/j2o and stuff got spilled over 2 of my friends, not a single bit on me or my other friend.

Our entire meal got comped and we got a free dessert and the two guys got a free pizza coupon.

I don't particularly trust ground beef that has not been cooked all the way through. With that said, I don't mind a little pinkness. These were raw.

There is an average food place/bar nearby which satisfies the 'worth driving to' but 'not that far to need to be special' kind of thing that is sometimes needed on a quiet saturday or sunday evening. The prices are very fair.

Whenever we go we get seated, but then nobody ever comes to serve us. I've gone to the bar a couple of times and they've gotten all pissed off at the teenaged servers and told me to go sit back down and then a manager or similar has come over to take our order, but it is clear he doesn't want to do it because it is beneath him or something and he is just following procedure. A few times we've walked out because it is just so awkward.

Last time I'm like fuck this and I go back to the front and speak to the hostess. She asks what is up and I tell her nobody is coming to serve us. She says take a seat somebody will usually be along. I say this happens pretty often and usually we just walk out after 30-45 minutes I feel she should know about it rather than just wonder why people leave. She asks what she is supposed to do about it I say come take our order she says that isn't her job and says ask for the manager at the bar I'm like no because he is always a difficult jumped up prick about it who clearly feels it isn't his job either which is why we walk out now instead of going up to the bar. She is all like oh sorry, but what do you want to happen right now? I'm like come take our order? She is like uhh ok? I guess? It really isn't my job though!

During our meal the manager keeps coming over and asking if everything is alright. Like he comes over about 5 times. He just wants to be sure that everything is finally to our satisfaction because he hates it when people aren't happy and he hates the idea that people don't love coming to his restaurant. Like dude I'm not going to apologise to you for saying you were a jumped up prick. Clearly you set the culture for your team and either empower or disempower your staff to resolve issues.

Tried recalling to see if I could have done something to offend someone in that restaurant. But I didn't. Methinks the server just hated making those fancy fruit drinks and had some lingering mucus from their bout with oral thrush.

Had that happen with a bartender at a hotel. Asked him to make 3 jaegerbombs and not only did he attempt to make a completely wrong drink and pass it off as a jaegerbomb, he then attempted to skimp on jaeger and the redbull while he was pouring them. Then he disappeared and 2 other bartenders started working, ignoring all attempts that I did to get their attention to get the damn bill. I wanted to leave but the other 2 with me wouldn't because they were afraid we'd get a bouncer on us or something. 20 minutes later the original bartender shows up and gives us the bill, THEN starts chatting us up. Like, fuck you dude. I saw the face you made because we're a little younger than everyone else at the bar. Self fullfilling prophesy since I didn't tip him at all.

I have "my extended family is a bunch of pussies" experience.

>We're up in Alaska on a family vacation paid for by my wealthy grandfather
>One night we go to a nice steakhouse for dinner
>Everything is fine at first until they bring out the actual steaks and the second bottle of wine
>Some of the steaks are overcooked, and the wine tastes off
>My mom (grandfather's daughter) flags down a waiter and complains about the wine and points out the overdone steaks
>Aunt and uncle (who were JUST complaining) quickly tell the waiter that it's fine, everything is delicious
>Waiter goes off to get a new bottle of wine as the family grumbles that my mother has "really embarrassed everyone"

Seriously what a bunch of pussies, they even left a larger tip behind when we refused to leave one.

>>9700854
Same as the other anons. I don't fuck with pink ground beef. I'm down for medium rare steaks and whole cuts though,

>>9701201
Why the fuck do you think grabbing anyone who works there can take your order? A hostess usually doesn't have the ability to send an order to the kitchen, take payment, produce change, or essentially be a server and a host at the same time. Someone would be a fucking cock like you about how no one is there to seat them the second they walked in the door.

If the service sucks, don't go there. Stop being such a Jew, "prices are fair" therefore I will only go here even though I fully know what it will be like. Go somewhere else, or better yet stay fucking home so others don't have to deal with your fag ass.

That would have shown them.

>>9701886
>I would've just straight up left the restaurant at that point
Yeah I dunno what that Anon is thinking. It's not like a piece of fruit was starting to go bad, somebody spit in the food. Why would you trust the server/cook after that and be okay with them acting like it's no big deal?

>>9701896
Yeah, let's not tell other people that a restaurant is not only willing to hire a guy who'll spit in your food, but apparently does this so often the waitresses aren't distressed by it.

Are you mentally deficient?

>>9701815
I don't care who takes my order as long as somebody takes it. I know full well that the place is run like shit, but for some reason (convenience due to location, ok price makes it worth the risk) we seem to think that it is always worth another try when we are in half a mind about going somewhere at the last minute. Maybe I enjoy giving them shit, who knows.

Here is how it goes. Somebody comes and takes my order. If you can't make that happen with 30 minutes after I've been seated and I'm forced to get up and find somebody then that persons top priority should be to make it happen instead of arguing about it with me.

Why not write it on a napkin and later on take it to a server if you have to, but in the moment be polite and professional and apologetic about it instead of trying to impress upon me how it isn't your problem and I need to go find somebody else. Fuck it send over a couple of free drinks if you really want to lather up my dick over the whole affair while you are at it. I'd even accept a condescending "you know what? It isn't my job? But for you handsome I'll make an exception" just deal with it.

The manager there is a prick because he clearly isn't on top of his staff and he clearly isn't encouraging staff to solve their own problems because I was directed to complain directly to him when I had a problem which would indicate to me that his staff hate him and he is a control freak who needs everything to come through him. He also didn't acknowledge the issue I'd had instead focusing on if the food was ok 5 times like a robot which to me is a passive aggressive way of either trying to kill me with false kindness and attention or saying you have the problem not me and if you say the food is fine then there was no problem after all.

So whatever man. I'm just trying to help improve customer service where I can.

I only tip at a coffee shop if I order a coffee that took a couple minutes of effort like a french press or a pour over. Even then, it's gonna be the handful of change in my pocket. It represents my acknowledgement that an effort was made to make my coffee specifically for me. I don't ever see any of the milkshake ordering assholes tipping, but whatever. It's not expected at coffee shops anyway. Wish I could tip just the cooks at restaurants when the food is really good.

>Mexicans are either super attentive to their children and treat the dining table as they would their own kitchen table or they stopped caring and have a little jumping bean run around hoping somebody will get pissed off enough to finally call ICE on them and save them.

>Been dating this girl around 3 months, she's cool but eccentric
>We go to a decent Italian restaurant one night
>While we're waiting to be seated this waiter starts giving girl these long awkward stares
>She tells me she's never seen him before, I try to let it drop
>Said waiter is assigned to our table, guy quickly confronts girl and they start arguing right there at the table
>Turns out he was her ex-bf, she claims she had no idea he worked there
>Dinner was just horrible, if the two weren't arguing she was complaining to me the whole time
>Waiter makes the mistake of calling girl a cunt at one point
>Next table over complains to the manager after overhearing this, manager brings waiter outside for a talk
>After a long and shouting conversation we hear the slam of a car door and waiter drives away as fast as he can
>Girl gets phone call from waiter, and she steps outside to yell at him, literally screaming so loud everyone inside the restaurant can hear

I paid the bill, (thankfully we were only charged for the wine as an apology) brought her home and never called her again.

No, I've worked at restaurants for years. People are constantly act like they are owed something for the most ridiculous things. He got a new one, didn't drink out of the first one, but expects constant apologizing and free everything for the rest of his life. Then go and leave a one star rating on yelp. After you deal with this kind of shit long term, you feel no sympathy or compassion for people who like to make scenes. The person who did that should be dealt with, but stop expecting free shit constantly.

I live in flyover minnesota. Friend of mine killed a deer and made the best jerky ever (among other things). Got a whole bag of it. Good stuff. Flyover isn't bad and people who make fun of hot dish should at least try it first.

MN isn't a flyover state, even if you hate it.

Because you're Australian and related to literal felons

>MN isn't a flyover state, even if you hate it.
The "my airport is real big" is pretty tired. First of all, 16th biggest is nothing to brag about. Second, even if you had the #1 biggest, many backwards places have air hubs because it's cheap to build runway space, cheap to operate, and the local labor force is cheap to pay. Take Angeles City, for instance. It's in Southeast Asia. There is literally nothing there except some hookers, and abandoned shipping containers. And yet, 787s fly through regularly because it's cheaper than gassing up in say, Singapore.

First time was maybe a mistake. Second time I think he was lazy and ran out of money in the register. I don't even feel like it was a bad experience, just completely baffling

Shit man I don't hate it, I love it. It's a great place to love. I've just been told it's flyover. Of the flyover states though, this one has to be the best. Mayo clinic. Lots of arts. Etc

>>9703755
This is mostly true except that an airport has to also be reasonably close (compared to other airports) to somewhere people want to go. I won't defend the rest of it.

>>9703772
Sounds like he was trying to steal from you.

I think you are still a millenial although some might disagree. Early 80s birth date. You must have been born in 82 or 81, so it's probably contested.

People are dumb and assume the world is out to get them, even though they aren't really all that important in the grand scheme of things. The fact that it revolves around alcohol, which is expensive, only exacerbates the problem.

>>9700242

Low end restaurants like to hurry people up and out so they can sit more guests. If it was a busy night, you should feel like assholes. You can go chitchat in the car or at the place you are staying at in the comfort of a home. Faggots

>>9700698
It is because in the US typically people don't just sit around doing nothing after they have eaten.
Plus, when you are occupying a table, that is one less table to restaurant can use to sell meals. If you are finished eating, you have no reason to be there and are preventing the restaurant from seating the next customers.
Haven't you ever worked in the service industry?

Dude, server didn't even apologize for it.
The whole situation was weird. Clearly someone was disgruntled with their job and hence why they were so dismissive when it was brought to their attention. That's fucking gross, do you spit in people's drinks? Faggot drink spitter.

At least the steak was good.

It is illegal to refuse legal tender, negro

>>9705117
No, it is not.

>>9705117
>>9705129
just gonna post this in case

Coinage Act of 1965, specifically Section 31 U.S.C. 5103, entitled "Legal tender," which states: "United States coins and currency (including Federal reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal reserve banks and national banks) are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues."

This statute means that all United States money as identified above are a valid and legal offer of payment for debts when tendered to a creditor. There is, however, no Federal statute mandating that a private business, a person or an organization must accept currency or coins as for payment for goods and/or services. Private businesses are free to develop their own policies on whether or not to accept cash unless there is a State law which says otherwise. For example, a bus line may prohibit payment of fares in pennies or dollar bills. In addition, movie theaters, convenience stores and gas stations may refuse to accept large denomination currency (usually notes above $20) as a matter of policy.

>>9705117
It isn't, actually

>>9693802
Why would the need to comp it? A tack in my food, I'm not eating more (so no point for a new one), and I'm not paying. I'm setting it down, letting them know, and leaving.

Probably not in Burgerland. Honestly, depends on the country; in Kurwaland they may not refuse any legal Polish money by law (you can pay with a 200 zł bill for a 5 zł's worth of shopping, but that's being a gigantic asshole), in Germany the policy is that you may not use too many coins or banknotes (you cannot pay 50 € with 5000 coins, they can refuse you).

The closest thing to bad was the time it took like 45 minutes - an hour to get our food at East Side Mario's, but the assistant manager came to be our server and he was so cool. Gave us discounts and free shit, I ended up tipping him like 30%. Awesome guy.

i do this all the fucking time for fun. i dont care for your jokes, i dont care for your comments, i dont care for your stories, i will put you on the spot, i will not give you the response you want. you know what i'll do? ill turn to you, stare at you, watch you start to crumble, and then SMILE. i'll smile at this event, and i'll smile at you, and i'll smile at the way you feel, until it's almost lecherous. you, sheepish, pained. then i'll rub it in. "...yeeaaahhhh....." and throw a pity chuckle. you know that laugh wasn't directed towards your request for the winning lottery numbers. you know that laugh was at you. a half-assed laugh for a half-assed person.

and i'll pick up the conversation and have fun with you like a fucking maniac, while you're off-kilter for the next 20 seconds, and then you'll come back to normalcy, and when it's time for goodbyes, you'll leave in discomfort. and i will smile, because we both experienced something great and rare.

Management should be giving away as much free shit as possible if it is deserved, and they certainly shouldn't be yelling at you and lowering your morale. Customer retention is what pays the bills, and keeping unhappy customers happy and showing them that you will make a sacrifice for that cause will keep them coming back, or they will go to that chain always in the future. Sure some people might try to abuse the kindness but ultimately even they generate revenue for the restaurant unless they are getting free meals every week.

These places need to get brainlets out of management positions.

That's the problem, people do this shit constantly. They also like to try to haggle with you about price like you are at some turn of the century bazaar.
