I had to work an emergency one Christmas eve - tree split in half waiting to fall on somebody's house. When I finally got done at like 7pm the only thing open was liquor stores and walgreens. Waited for Santa to come all by myself, with a bottle of brandy and some frozen pizza.

Time for my favorite Christmas waitressing story. I'm running the lounge Christmas night, its a lounge and restaurant in a huge hotel so we are open with a skeleton pissed off crew. Its dead af, I have maybe a score of traveling businessmen customers total and finally the restaurant closes. The menu is available in the lounge though. Approx 45 min before closing (the restaurant version of 2 days before retirement) a huge group of people come in. Its a family, pretty white trash looking which is unusual for our clientele. Turns out they had been looking for a place to have dinner but everwhere was closed NO poo poo REALLY 🙄 Then they had remembered us, we had been in business almost 20 years and were a destination spot for Holiday brunches so they thought we might be open. Yup but barely. There's 14 of them and they all want menus. After I shove 4 tables together I go tell the night cook. He's a super quiet mellow guy so his reaction shocked me. I see he's like halfway done breaking down the line and he immediately starts throwing poo poo. He is slamming metal tins of prepped food back onto his work counter and its sloshing out while he curses. I tell him I'm sorry and leave. Half of them were old and the oldest looked 100 and had one of those portable oxygen tanks on a little dolly next to him. I'm alone so my businessmen go thirsty while I set the tables and get their drinks. I tell them the blender is broken in advance (Lol, its not oc) Even I knew their orders were going to turbofuck the kitchen---there is only the one cook and the fat sex offender dishwasher on duty. Rather than $20 dinners most orders were Club sandwiches, or Grilled Reuben, Fettuccini Alfredo, or Chicken Stir Fry. This post is now almost as long as their wait.. They started complaining after about half an hour. I kept checking the kitchen and the cook has a huge row of garnished plates on the line and he's cooking, I see pans working but ? thats it. The rapist dishwasher is with him on the line, head down, scrambling around looking scared. Chef doesn't even bother to answer when I ask if I can help so I put another round of rolls on the tables and start avoiding them. After an hour maybe half the plates are on the rail under the heatlamps and I'm making GBS threads because the family are fully pissed and competing to see who can make the most cutting remarks. ITS CHRISTMAS WHERE'S OUR FOOD DO YOU WANT ME TO GO BACK AND COOK but the best ones were def GRAMPAS OXYGEN TANK IS RUNNING LOW JESUS CHRIST Its a bad scene and a few drunk guys at the bar are yelling back at the table when they yell at me; I just keep apologizing. They ended up leaving without eating, after almost an hour and half ---- insisting that they had to, HE COULD DIE WHEN THE TANK RUNS DRY---screaming that we had ruined their Christmas True They yelled about talking to the manager first of course and poo poo when I told them I was the Hotel Manager on duty. One of them went to the Front Desk, assuming I was lying but I wasn't so he screamed at the Front Desk clerk for a while. After they left I had to go tell the Chef who first tells me I can start taking food out. Great. When I tell him they had left he took his apron and hat off and walked out, leaving the line a total wreck. Sex offender dishwasher asks what he should do. I tell him to make sure everything is shut off and I dunno, take as much as you can home. They did call the owner, I heard about it later, but nothing ever came of it. Merry Christmas 🤗

Working on an ambulance on Christmas sucks. There's always 911 calls from people who want their 80 year old mother taken to the emergency room because she "looks worse", and it's totally not because they haven't seen her in over a year.

If you get any funny stories this year please share in the thread. Looking forward to a story about a drunk uncle breaking a beer bottle and threatening an 8 year old. e: For an ambulance I guess he'd have to have hurt the 8 year old  don't post about that, I dunno he stabs his wife that he hates then threatens the 8 year old. Wife lives thanks to you though, happy endings this year!

Oh my God I can't believe they make you guys work today. They should let you spend time with your family. Yes I would like to spend a dollar on that charity.

Arent they likely sick because of higher stress and being around family/grandchildren who are more pestilent than plague rats?

We should have a system like jury duty for everyone to have to work the register at Walgreens on Christmas at least once. No disqualifications, if you don't show up on time and be friendly the whole time, your rear end is going to jail for contempt. No fines, that gives rich people an out. Hard loving time.

Agreed but it should also apply to all manners of relatively unskilled public services.
