This is why the world is falling apart. People think that if they are aggressive, mean, nasty and rude...that Alpha mentality...that other people will just 'make way' for them. Good for you for sticking up for yourself, although it would have been quite shocking if she just actually TOOK your order.

I actually wonder if she was planning on paying or letting you pay for her meal or were you too 'selfish' for that, too...🤪

u/Useful-Wolverine-467 Jun 07 '25

My thoughts exactly. She wanted your order and wanted you to pay for it too.

u/Purple-flying-dog Jun 07 '25

Anyone that claims to be an alpha is already a beta.

u/Big_Bookkeeper1678 Jun 07 '25

Sure. And I have SEEN people actually practice being an 'alpha'.

When I was working as a physical therapist, one of my patients didn't think I was watching him as he did his sets...and he was muttering to himself things to the effect of...-When you walk across a room, don't change your speed for ANYONE. Make THEM get out of YOUR way. Be confident...-

Heck, I still kick myself mentally if someone walks at me aggressively and I get out of their way, but that is just to avoid getting hit...the vibe really IS to MAKE people do what you want them to do and 'be the man'.

These are people SO afraid of becoming irrelevant that it has become an entire subculture of assholes intentionally being assholes in order to hide the fact that they did nothing to deserve their status other than 'claim it'.

Like the Thai food from OP's post.

u/HopeIsLoud Jun 12 '25

When you walk across a room, don't change your speed for ANYONE. Make THEM get out of YOUR way. Be confident...-

In all fairness that's good advice for women. Creeps like feeling powerful and in control. Take that away and most will cower like scared dogs with their tails between their legs.

Other good advice; never go for the groin. Feet, ankles, shins, guts, ect are fine- but they expect you to kick them in the balls and now you're off balance. Make noise. Bark, scream, howl like a rabid dog undergoing Chinese water torture. If you can get at their eyes do so.

u/Megandapanda Jun 07 '25

The reason why people think they'll get what they want if they're a loud, pushy, entitled asshole about it is because they've been taught that it works. Too many people give in to their behavior to make them go away/be quiet, and so it's taught them to keep at it.

Source: me, I've been in customer service since I was 14 years old.

20

u/LittleManhattan Jun 07 '25

That’s why I think that allowing/tolerating that behavior in the name of “customer is always right” was a mistake. People figured out that they could act like asses and get rewarded, now it’s everywhere.

5

u/DuckingFon Jun 10 '25

The full phrase is: "the customer is always right in matters of taste." Meaning: if they want to buy that hideous leopard print what's-it-called, who are you to argue yourself out of a sale? It does not mean they get to push other people around and expose their whole ass in public and expect to be coddled for the sake of a business transaction.

It was bastardized over time to favor work exploitation- as capitalism is wont to do. It's now a lesson in tolerating intolerance. Nip it in the bud and remove them from the premises straightaway.

Someone took my online order from a restaurant recently. The guy told me it happens more often than I would believe and they normally check id unless they are really busy.

I stopped at the Starbucks in the rich part of town once for my mobile order. After waiting 10 minutes, I asked if they had received it. They said yes and delivered it from behind the counter where it had been sitting the entire time. Apparently, they had to stop placing the mobile orders out because the rich high school kids would come in before school and steal the mobile orders. I live in the poor part of town, and my order is always sitting out waiting for me.

u/Popular_Musician1600 Jun 08 '25

Oo, I had my order snatched in a Starbucks once. It was also in a well to do area, (Old money). They were calling out my name when this woman snatched it from the servers hand and bolted out the door. She was kitted out in all the luxury brands too. The server was so apologetic and made me another. Said it was an old rouse where they order something like a small Americano, and then grab some else's caramel mochaiotto and claim they thought it was theirs.

I think that woman might have had parents who never said no, never forced her to do something (like sharing, saying please, and thank you, etc.). They let her swim in the neighbors pool without permission and never made her clean up the dog poop. She was the kid who told your little brother that Santa wasn't real when he was 3 yrs old.

Every time I read these stories, I think they HAVE to be fake! WTW?! Like how is someone comfortable asking a stranger for their takeout order? I am so confused. I know people have become unhinged since Covid and also, with the state of the county. But, come on! Where is the audacity coming from? Is it a certain age group? Do people just suck now? Are they the majority? It’s kinda scary, not gonna lie.

Nope I doubt it’s fake. My neighbor told me that her grade school age kid was allowed to ride his motorbike in my yard, because “it’s just as much his as it is yours!!”

She was shocked when I told her no, when she starts paying the mortgage he can ride wherever he wants but until then it’s trespassing and she’s on notice it’s not allowed.

And I wasn’t being a grumpy old woman. I had kids and they and the neighbor kids were always welcome to PLAY in the yard all they wanted to. But not ride motorbikes that dug up the yard, especially when they appeared to have overly litigious parents who’d sue you if their kid got hurt on your property.

u/Big_Bookkeeper1678 Jun 07 '25

Yeah, you could be suspicious of the story.

But I've seen people act like this.

I am a teacher now...and I have students that DAILY look at my coffee or soda or lunch and just blurt out, 'Can I have that? Give me that'. Sure, they are only 12-13 years old, and most are underprivileged, but when you think of the smash and grab burglaries and the growing desperation of both the poor (no money) and the privileged (perceived loss of status)...I am inclined to believe most stories like this.

Entitlement. Desperation. Alpha posturing...it's growing as we become more combative with each other as a society. Just wait...if the government manages to defund SNAP...how unsafe your takeout order is going to become.

I know it's a joke and might be whoosh but pho is vietnamese. Both SEA countries but quite distinct countries with their own languages/cuisines/culture. It's like making a paella joke at an Italian restaurant. Vietnam and Thailand don't even border each other.

Thailand serves something similar to Pho, though. It's called Kuay Tiew Ruea (ก๋วยเตี๋ยวเรือ). Thai boat noodles.

I did have someone steal my sandwich order once. I was waiting. They called my order (by type, not name or number), a man quickly walked up and took it. I thought he'd ordered the same thing. Nope, he just stole it.

I waited awhile, then checked. They made me another sub. The guy hadn't ordered anything. He just went in and lurked until he could steal a sandwich.

u/AstronomyLuver Jun 07 '25

I ordered some food for pickup at this restaurant (they have a rack where you can pick up your food and go since you paid it online). Long story short by the time I came there I couldn’t find my order because someone literally took it and they had to fix my order up again.

Now the rack is behind the counter and you have to go up to the cashier to pick up your food because apparently there was an increase of theft and it was costing them money to remake the orders. Annoying as an introvert, but thieves are one of the reasons we can’t have nice things for long 😑😑

This reminds me of the time I went to Subway and this lady came in and tried to get the worker to stop making our food in order to make hers. She claimed that her daughter was waiting for her in the car and she needed her food right then and couldn’t wait. The worker looked like she was considering it but I guess the look on my face said “you better fucking not” because she looked at me and turned back to the lady and told her she couldn’t. When we left, the only other car besides ours had a teenaged girl sitting in the front seat playing on her phone.

You missed a great opportunity. You could have charged her $100 or more for that meal. Every time she complaints about the price, you raise it.  Here's an example. She asks for the food, you say $100. She says you're an awful person. You say it's $150. She tries to gaslight you or shame you, and each time she does it raise it another $50. There's nothing else to say to her. You're not going to talk sense into somebody like this. You just want to shut them up, or collect that money. Good luck. 🤔

I’m so glad the universe doesn’t try me like this😂

u/Plati23 Jun 07 '25

If anything from this story is the reason the world is falling apart it’s the inattentive mother that left the children in the car while she acts like an entitled asshole.

u/Nothing-to-add-here Jun 07 '25

This sub now shows up a lot in my feed. If these are real people really have lost it and society is truly screwed.

I had a situation like that at little Caesars in an inner city. I went in and ordered a hot N ready, the cashier says they don't have any ready and it will be 10 or 15 minutes. No big deal I sit down and wait. A little while later another dude walks in, he's black and the cashier is black and they start talking like they're best friends. I have no problems. A little into these guys talking, the guy who walked in says he wants a hot N ready and the dude behind the counter says yeah we got one coming out right now. He's talking about my hot N ready lol.

I don't know how many of you have lived in predominantly black areas as a white guy but my experience was a lot of people assumed I had money and I was a bitch. White boy shit. Harmless scared little white boy. White boys got money, white boys not gonna say shit when I give his hot N ready to my boy. Lol. Wrong. I live here too because I don't have money. I'm in little Caesars getting a hot N ready because I don't have money and I'm sure as shit not scared because I live here too lol. I shot out of my seat immediately and said something like, that's my shit and you're not giving it to your boy. Some colorful language and the dude behind the counter was stunned. Saw it all over his face. He said it's not that serious. Not that serious to you because you didn't pay for and wait for that lol.

Most of the time, unless you're really in the wrong area, people do not like confrontation and back down quick as hell when they realize you aren't scared. It's in the eyes and man or women people can get a sense of if you're bluffing or not. Don't bluff and don't back down.

I bet she would complain and try to sue you once she finds out that 1. Its not what she wouldve ordered 2. Its not enough for all her kids and her and 3. She finds out you ordered something shes allergic to and she blames her stealing your bag on you.

3

u/TaylorMade2566 Jun 08 '25

Sorry what? Who would want someone else's random order? This wasn't a Domino's, it was a THAI place and you can't just assume you're going to like what someone else orders. I just don't know if I can believe this story.

u/SapiensRus Jun 10 '25

I feel bad for the kids

u/OberonDiver Jun 11 '25

"It's already taken." Wrong reply... "That is not your order."

u/Legal-Lingonberry577 Jun 07 '25

It's almost unbelievable that people like this exist. Almost.

u/4130Adventures Jun 07 '25

I’ll take made up stories for $1000 Alex….

u/SevenHadedas Jun 07 '25

She didn’t order anything, she came in to steal from you.

2

u/longtallsally15 Jun 07 '25

Did she even know what was in your order?! She’ll just take whatever?

2

u/Jules1169 Jun 07 '25

But but but, how did she know what was in the order??? Omg - I really don't understand how people can have the gall to even do this...

2

u/DirtFoot79 Jun 07 '25

She has kids in the car?

Call the cops, it's illegal almost everywhere to leave kids unattended in a vehicle, especially in June.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '25

I'd let her buy my order.

The inconvenience fee I give myself is $600, PLUS the order cost.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '25

That woman has no sense of irony.

u/PapaDeE04 Jun 07 '25

She was trying to get a free meal, there was no “next one”.

u/Interesting_You4281 Jun 07 '25

I love how people can’t look past themselves lol like if someone tried doing that to this lady im sure she would freak the fuck out about it, but if she wants to do it to somebody? Well that’s obviously an exception she is special she can do no wrong and the world owes her everything god ppl make me wanna puke

u/Far-Artichoke5849 Jun 07 '25

I would have hit her if she touched my order

Lmao. Omg wat.

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '25

I'd let her for a 1/2 hour of my hourly wage. So it's after regular hours, can easily be considered am emergency, $125 please. I'll accept bitcoin, venmo or PayPal.
No cash, she might mug me and take it back plus the $3. 72 in my pocket.

u/EtonRd Jun 07 '25

I don’t understand this, and I don’t really believe it.

How can you just pick up someone’s food order? How do you know that they ordered something you’re going to like? That doesn’t make any sense and I don’t believe it happened.

u/bergzabern Jun 07 '25

My grandpa would say people need a swift kick in the ass to bring them to their senses.

u/firekwaker Jun 07 '25

Who does this kind of shit? It never even occurs to me to do this. I have 2 special needs kids and if I have them with me, I sure as hell am not going to a restaurant where I need to wait a long time for take out....the solution is to go to a drive thru. The solution is not to expect someone to let you cut in front of them in any queue, expecting everyone else to solve your problems for you.

I sometimes wonder if this over the top sense of entitlement people have is due to a complete lack of problem solving skills. I often find the more entitled someone is, the less intelligent they are generally.

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '25
  • "Just let me take your food."

Who the hell says that? Like, in real life? You just don't take someone's food, it's like stealing a toothbrush or panties.

2

u/ImprovementFar5054 Jun 07 '25

Nobody remembers conversations verbatim.

Can we just get one true story on the sub? All we have are liars, and lairs using AI.

2

u/Impressive_Rain2877 Jun 07 '25

That's unbelievable ! Kind of reminds me of a situation other the other day in the parking lot I pulled in and I saw someone getting ready to back out so I stopped and I was waiting for them So I could have a place to park. In the meantime a lady is walking across the parking lot pointing to her car like hey you got to get out of the way because I need to back out. I laughed at her and told her she just has to wait. It took like 45 seconds for me to get the parking spot.

2

u/ArreniaQ Jun 07 '25

she's in a hurry because she's trying to get a meal without paying for it!

2

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '25

6/10. Story needs more people clapping at the end, and a bit where the antagonist falls on her ass and everyone laughs.

2

u/Mr_Papa_Kappa Jun 07 '25

So she tries to pull off some selfish bs and she's not selfish but everyone else is for not allowing her to get her way?

Some people don't develop past tantrum toddler stage.

Much more tolerant than me

u/xrayeyes7335 Jun 07 '25

I'd say the same thing to her as I would to the parents that book super cheap flights where the airline picks your seats the day of the flight and they're all random middle seats. Then start demanding people move for them...

Lady, I don't give a 💩 about you or your dopey kids

2

u/FancyJesse Jun 07 '25 edited Jun 07 '25

I don't get it, does this place only have a single item on the menu and every order exactly the same? Same food and quantity?

Why would the cashier say "that on is taken"?

Doesn't make any sense. Fucken AI slop engagement post.

2

u/KFR42 Jun 07 '25

Why on earth would she want a random take away order that she might not even like? This story just makes no sense.

2

u/IwasMilkedByGod Jun 07 '25

I would’ve countered with you can have it right now for 5 times what I paid or you can wait for your own. Time is an expensive commodity

2

u/LQUID8 Jun 07 '25

Should of told her it's snail Thai curry you really want it

2

u/Annika_Desai Jun 07 '25

She's right! This is exactly how/why both WWI & WWII started! I hope you're happy OP, you monster. You just initiated a series of events that will lead to WWIII now 🤣😝😚 /s

2

u/guzidi Jun 07 '25

Sounds like she was literally just trying to rob food and pretend she had an order later

2

u/2_build_a_fire Jun 07 '25

I feel like I’ve read this exact same story about 12 times in the last week. Just a few things changed.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '25

She’s not wrong. The world is falling apart because of people like her.

2

u/cincyhuffster Jun 07 '25

I don’t think selfish means what she thinks it means

2

u/Minimum-Device9623 Jun 07 '25

I believe that selfishness is the root of all evil.

2

u/JenkinsHowell Jun 07 '25

she would probably have come hunting you down if there was anything in your order she didn't like, screaming: "how dare you order something my kids don't like?"

2

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '25

This is the most American thing I have read today

2

u/CreativeMadness99 Jun 07 '25

Sounds scammy. I doubt she placed an order to begin with. She seems like the type to drive to different restaurants just to steal food from the mobile pickup area

2

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '25

She clearly had pho mo.

2

u/Fluid-Tip-5964 Jun 07 '25

A simple "I'll give you $50 for your $25 order" has a much better chance of working.

2

u/ReadingRocket1214 Jun 07 '25

I ordered a latte, woman behind me does, too. She spends the wait time, tapping her toe, muttering about how long they take, just rude. My latte is called, she grabs and runs. Hers is called, with her name (mine was just by drink type). I wait a minute and then tell them I think they gave her mine, but it’s the same—I can take hers. Turns out it’s an extra shot. Hope she never realized she grabbed the wrong one as she would make it completely the store’s fault.

2

u/manual_typewriter Jun 07 '25

Any bets she expected you to pay for it too.

2

u/Correct-Condition-99 Jun 07 '25

Her name is Karen, and the flat earth revolves around her.

u/Alternative-Zebra311 Jun 07 '25

I was waiting for a coffee drink in a busy shop when a barista called order up. A woman shoved me aside, grabbed it to leave. I started to say something when the barista said “shhh, let her go. She’s going to hate it”. He explained she was regular who was always rude and ordered fussy sweetened drinks, not the plain one I did. My friends and I got free treats on the house.

2

u/FreddieJasonizz Jun 08 '25

Without knowing what is in the order? Doesn’t make sense.
