Was sitting at my desk one day, in a financial institution. This gentleman comes in, frantically trying to ask me something. There was a language barrier and I felt really bad... he got his english speaking son on the phone and it turns out, he urgently needed to use our restroom. I explained where they were & he left. I got up to greet a customer who had come into the lobby during this, to find that the poor man relieved himself and left me a present on the floor... talk about a sh!*ty day!

Omg I would’ve cried on the spot 😭 That’s one of those moments you just pause and think, “Is this real life?” Props to you for handling it, definitely not in the job description! Hope your next day at work was way less... eventful.

Ah, nothing like a surprise gift to really set the tone for your shift, right? Honestly, that’s one of those stories you’ll laugh about years from now, but at the time, I bet it wasn’t quite so funny. It’s always the most unexpected moments that make the job "memorable." How did the rest of the day go after that?

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.
