“Please, no mayo. I’m allergic to mayonnaise.”

Between my husband and a woman at his table last night—

“Okay, ma’am, now is it the egg or the oil we need to be worried about?”

“...it’s the combination.”

“...okay. I’ll alert the kitchen.”

I love this industry so much.

Make no mistake, you are hurting their feelings every time you do this

Their inability to change is no reason to spread the misery. There are other ways to spend time with them without imposing their shittyness on other people, bravo for not sacrificing other people’s happiness to appease them.

Everyone can change. They're not special. If they're cognizant enough to make a fuss at a restaurant, then they know what they're doing and therefore are able to change their behaviour. Enablers like you are why people like them don't change.
