When The Waitress Gives You Lemons…

Cafe, Employees, Instant Karma, UK, Wild & Unruly | Working | May 17, 2020


A waitress has come over with our drinks.

Me: “Sorry, but could I have my Coke without a lemon, please?”

Waitress: “Oh, my. I wonder how that got in there!”

She disappears and returns a minute later. This time it isn’t just a lemon slice in the glass; it is an entire half of a lemon. I’m about to ask, but she scurries away.

Me: *Shouting* “Excuse me, but I said I didn’t want lemon.”

Waitress: “EVERYONE HAS LEMON! IT’S BETTER!”

She threw her tray at me and ran into the kitchen. Thankfully, the tray missed, but the owner wasn’t too impressed with her behaviour and fired her on the spot.
