Privelige of Abusing Hospitality Workers

Aug 24, 2011 23:16

I was listening on the radio, the commentator was talking about his girlfriend ordering Chinese from a chain place. When he got there, they had no record of the order, and he verbally abused the staff for a few minutes before realising he had the wrong outlet, it was another restauarant within the chain that the order had been placed at. He then got the staff to make him up the order. He was telling this with a laugh, like apparantly it was funny that he abused the staff and, whoops, turned out to be his fault, and, having abused them, expected them to make his order. (Incidentally, what happened to the order at the place it had actually been ordered at? Did he even bother to cancel it? I doubt it.) Seriously, I hope they spat in his food.

And all this was funny? I know that some people have very little regard for hospility workers - or any kind of service employees, for that matter - but it boggles my mind that this guy thought it was fine to abuse someone when he was in error and, when realising this, still expected a service provided.

And they wonder why said workers spit in food.
