I am excited to be the bowl leader for crazy customer stories! Let’s have fun, and let me know if you need anything. I would also love to know what you like to see in this bowl, such as polls, tips, etc. Do post about stories, be respectful, and be open to other opinions. Don’t dox, post spam, take credit for others’ work, be mean or disruptive, attack others, or use hate speech.

Lol is this a self-given title?? I didn't know we had bowl captains! I like the funny stories, but I think I'd definitely appreciate more bowls or more thought-provoking discussion topics. There's a lot of ethics involved in customer-facing roles so I'm always up for debate about ethical behavior in our roles

Just realized I said I'd appreciate more "bowls" when I meant I would appreciate more POLLS lol. Oops. But yeah I like a good mix of funny and serious. We could also probably give each other more advice.

Wow, that's so cool. I didn't know this was a thing lol. How does it work? Happy to he part of this bowl too, thanks.

Oops sorry I mean bowls that need other leaders. Last time I use ' help me write'. 🤣

I would like to see people in this forum sharing what they did was not so or as much the fault of Karen's & Kevin's but they themselves for not having learnt -from others experiences or by being more adept as well as professional in their job. I want or would like to see a topic here of people owning up to a mistake they made instead of faulting more the customer or manager or company. I'm not saying no one is entitled to feel empathetic or encouraged but I would also like to see stories posted here of people that have grown as well as enjoy challenges and how they overcame them instead of the "I'm the victim" .

Back when I was getting started in the food world, I worked flipping burgers at In-n-Out. A man came in and said the burgers he had gotten weren’t right. He dumped the food on the counter and then he started throwing them back behind the counter. We gave him a refund and then his demeanor completely changed. He was calmer and he told us to have a great day as he left us to clean up the mess he made.

Once when I was waiting tables, I had a guy pay me cash. The change was 45 cents, which I didn't give back to him because like who wants that. He then asked where the change was, and when I explained that I didn't give back the loose change, he made a big stink about how dollars and cents matter and didn't leave me a tip. He was a republican staffer on capitol hill.

At a different job I had a customer trying to swindle me in telling me that there was a deal in an item that never had a deal or promotion for sale so he made me scan the item 20 times before believing me.
