    My brief experience working at a restaurant taught me that some people are incapable of grasping that not every business is run by spineless cretins who will cater to your every whim in hopes of getting your dollar

    Sometimes, they’re run by angry Italian guys who will threaten to kill you for saying their pizza was bad

      I really enjoy when clients threaten to terminate a contract thinking we’ll fall over to do whatever stupid thing they want. I’ve even had one tell me to stop explaining how they can submit a cancellation to inform me that when somebody threatens to cancel I’m supposed to try to keep their business. No sir, if you’d like to cancel we’re not interested in holding you hostage and don’t let the door hit your annoying ass on the way out.

        Some clients don’t understand that catering to their every whim takes more time and effort than the contract is actually worth, and the business is actually losing money having to deal with their non-stop bullshit.

      50/50 chance of being pure food poisoning nastiness or the best damn pizza you’ll ever eat when you find a place like that.
