fuck-customers:

So this is something my dad told me occured at a fast food chain (think Whopper) and I wasn’t there bc I’m not a fan of the food so went elsewhere, wish I could’ve been to say something though.

So my family are in line to order some food and there is a family of about 6 in front. Now this family sounded pretty posh and like a typical stuck up family- and all of the kids were miraculously gluten-intolerant. Now the first issue with this is why in the world are you in said fast food restaurant?? Especially because the following encounter ensued:

woman: Do you offer anything gluten free?
Poor French server (we’re in france): No, we only have what is on the boards. woman:But my kids are gluten intolerant, I need a menu.
Server: I’m afraid we do not have menus.
Woman: Okay, can I get 6 rashers of bacon? (My dad was speechless at this point)
Server:I’m sorry?
Woman: Can I have the bacon you offer?Server: That bacon is only a side, you have to order a burger for that.
Woman (increasingly aggravated): What DO YOU MEAN?? HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO FEED MY CHILDREN THEY CANNOT EAT GLUTEN.
Server: (probably internally who tf this girl think she is???)I’m afraid I cannot help with your childrens dietry requirements.
Woman: This is horrendous. I cannot believe you do not have any gluten free options, this is a disgrace. *gathers her mortified family and storms to the channel tunnel car park*
Rest of queue: Thank FUCK.

So basically this woman doesn’t know how this fast food chain works, doesn’t understand the server is french and will not understand high pitched screaming-nor wil he want to, doesn’t care enough for her kids to make sure there will always be food on hand if the gluten intolerance is so terrible (plus she had literally come to the land of bread get ur shit together)

I just feel so bad for the server???

And also my dad (who is a chef and regularly deals with allergies and intolerance) pointed out that gluten intolerance is not the same as an allergy and they could’ve always had something on the menu like fries which doesn’t directly involve bread

lol that was longer than it should’ve been but it astounds me how stupid people are sometimes.
