But the reality is that truly awful behavior shouldnt be tolerated.
Though shocked, the server didnt lose her cool.
Instead, she found a very creative way to shame the customer into rethinking her life.

A restaurant server who Bored Panda spoke to previously emphasized the importance ofempathyand kindness whenever youre dealing with customers.
It sets an expectation for the interaction.
If I come over yelling and cursing, the guest will too.
Treat others the way you would like to be treated and all that, she told us earlier.

I will say, the moment a guest is aggressive with me (I.e.

Maybe with a few fun words, the server said.
I loved being able to be a happy part of someones day.
Take it day by day, shift by shift.
Dont look at your tips until the end of the night.
Be kind to the cooks and the dishwasher.
Be the person you would want to work with.
The internet loved the story.
