Customer service employees see a lot of bizarre things. These stories are the type of stuff that will be completely believable if you would’ve seen them with your own eyes.

They probably saw how people’s tastes can vary from subtle preferences to something a bit more extreme. Most experiences would be chalked up to a passing thought, not impactful enough to question.

To each their own you know? But there are moments when a customer asks for something and it’s borderline weird that it haunts the employee forever.

Although that’s a bit dramatic, an experience of an ex-subway employee proved that humans can really throw you off guard. It started when OP was working there in her 20s.

By that time she admitted that she had made questionable sandwiches but nothing tops this. During one of her shifts, a group of high schoolers came in and she served one of the girls there.

She wanted a footlong white bread, starting out ordinary. Then she wanted cheese slices and moved on to no veggies and not having it toasted.

OP asked if she wanted sauce and she said yes. The customer wanted ranch and OP put on the regular serving of it, but the customer wanted more, and more and more and more.

Here’s the full story that OP couldn’t help but remember

OP, along with her relatively young co-workers were working the early dinnertime shift

When it was time to serve one of the girls from the group who came in, things started off okay

OP knows that sometimes, people don’t like as much flavor in their sandwiches

But then when she put on the ranch in the sandwich, the customer kept wanting more

It got to the point where all you can see is ranch rather than the sandwich

Wary with the amount of ranch, OP looked at the customer again and she motioned for her to keep going

Her friends seem to not feel like this was anything new

OP felt like the situation was getting a bit ridiculous

And as if there would soon be a breath of relief, the customer wanted another bottle

The manager gave in to the customer’s request

Finally, FINALLY, the customer was satisfied with the amount and said no to seasoning

The customer sat down to eat it and that’s how the worst sandwich OP’s ever made came about

If OP thought it was a joke, it wasn’t

The readers were very amused with OP’s story

This post reminded some ex-customer service employees of their own experiences

One of the comments described their son’s weird combination despite his usual pickiness

The sweet and salty combination going wild

For those who have endless want of certain condiments, maybe this post would make you feel a bit better

This post reminded some ex-customer service employees of their own experiences

They start off ordinary until it’s a whole Rachel’s thanksgiving trifle recipe kind of situation

Not flinching or anything

Tuna is a smell that could turn from stinky to downright unbearable

Not as extreme but a lot of people have strong feelings about pizza toppings

It’s like cake but with watered crust

They couldn’t say no but they can kick him out maybe

Well, they might not have known that so you can still be part of their weird stories

OP thought she’d go to work that day like she normally does. Maybe get a few weird sandwich combinations here and there for orders.

Then this customer came around, starting off ordinary, and then the situation went on to become one of OP’s worst-order nightmares. But at least she got a good story that entertained people out of it.
