re: People who return their food everywhere they eat

I was at a Mexican restaurant one time and there were two morbidly obese black women at the booth behind us. They ate 95% of what was on their plate(s) and then called over the poor waitress and told her it "wasn't cooked right" and they weren't paying. They also worked in that their alcoholic beverages didn't have enough vodka in them so they weren't paying for those either 
I feel bad for restaurant management that has to deal with idiots like this with the internet and yelp etc it isn't worth it to argue with them. Manager just told them to leave and not come back. Handled it better than I would have.

My bat-shite crazy ex-wife constantly returned food for various reasons and would act very upset. She often got meals compted because of her complaints.

My wife used to do this.
She didn’t always send it back, but she would order the most expensive, slowest, most complicated dish to prepare on the menu, with special instructions on the side. Then when it finally came out, she would say Oh I can’t eat this. I let her know early in our marriage that we were done eating out unless she could figure out a way to curb that.
She does a lot better for a long time now but sometimes she will tend toward that again and I have to remind her.
She really is a wonderful woman otherwise!

sorry to disparage your sister, but she seems like a right count.
feel sorry for any pour soul stuck with her.

My grandma was like this. Especially with soup, she’d ALWAYS send back soup for “not being hot enough”
OMG… my MIL has to have soup and coffee that will scald the mouth or it’s going back.

We had a friend who we refused to go out to eat with. Whatever was on the menu, she would ask to make several changes to it. 9 times out of 10 it got sent back because it wasn't EXACTLY how she wanted it. Like holy shite, just eat what's in front of you. It's the restaurant's menu, not YOUR kitchen.

I've only experienced this a handful of times in my life, I would make it a point to not dine out with a person if they've done this more than once in my presence.

We had a family member order a dish with a "modification ". German chef came out of the kitchen to explain why it should be eaten the way he prepares it. It was epic and much laughs are had anytime someone brings it up.

Only times I've ever sent something back in my entire life was the 2/3 occasions where I ordered a med rare steak and it came out well done. Every time I was as nice as possible and each time the chef came out to talk to me and apologize because it was at a place we have frequented for 20 years. Treat people with respect and they will generally treat you with respect. Sending a dish back because it has an issue isn't a problem. Sending a dish back and being an a-hole about it is.

I have an older sister that does the same thing.. We went to a place and she wanted a broiled piece of fish and asked the waitress to not put seasoning on it.. She gets the fish and it was exactly like she asked for.. She starts with there nothing on it it's just plain... I barked at her "that's what you ordered!" She sent it back and they sprinkled some seasoning on it and she was fine with it...

Found the guy that loves to send food back.
I see how you could come to that conclusion, but that is not an accurate correlation. Might have had one thing I complained about in the last five years, maybe longer.

If you call them on their bullshite you are “racist.”
Pretty much the only thing I’ll send back is a burger or sandwich with ketchup or mustard because I absolutely abhor both.

Your sister sounds like a Karen.

I haven't had to send anything back in at least 20 years. Probably because I choose wisely with where I eat, but also due to me not dining with nimrods.
My old arse mother in law has had to send a few soups back for not being hot enough, but we don't dine out together all that much.

If I'm with someone and they do it for the first time around me, I'll give them a pass.
If I see they make a habit of it, then they can go out to eat by themselves, or at least without me as part of the table.

Wife and I own a retail business. 99% of the public is amazing, but there is a 1% that makes it hard.
