Sydney and Karen continued going back and forth as Sydney tried explaining to her that neither the staff nor the food would be ready for serving until 9:00 am when the restaurant opened. Then, Sydney discovered that Karen had a reservation for 8:30 pm, not 8:30 am.
Finally, Karen told Sydney, “It doesn’t look busy in there at all, so if you let me in, I’ll be out before anyone else gets here,” indicating that she refused to show any form of common sense or human decency.
That’s when Sydney ends her video by rolling her eyes and shaking her head. Clearly, re-enacting that rude customer interaction brought back some painful memories.
“I know this is just a skit, but if this really happened to someone, I sure hope they did not stay on the phone that long with that lady!” commented one TikTok user on Sydney’s video.
“I was 17 and a major people pleaser,” responded Sydney.
If you’ve worked in restaurants, have you ever dealt with a customer like that?
