I was waiting on a pickup order for food once and a lady walks in and started going off because it was 8:07, she didn't have her food, and her order was supposed to be ready at 8:05. There's like 10 people waiting, they are obviously overwhelmed and doing the best they can.

Me, being a bigger guy as well, chimed in with: "It's obviously busy in here, they're doing their best. I've been waiting patiently for about 10 minutes, and some people have been here longer than me." Another guy chimed in "My order was due at 7:45, calm down lady!" She huffed and walked away from the counter glaring at us.

A few minutes later the worker came out and says "Order for Karen?" Lady grabs her bag and leaves... Other guy and I share a look and both started laughing.

I got a $10 gift card for my "inconvenience".
