  • The Long Island waitress who became a viral sensation after tossing a customer out of her diner told Inside Edition she did what needed to be done after the man in the video began insulting her and other customers. Sondra Albert has worked as a waitress at the Massapequa Diner for 15 years but she said no customer has ever been as rude as the man she tossed from the restaurant in the now infamous TikTok video. After she tossed the man out of the diner, the other customers applauded Albert.

      Sadly most employers would fire the employee for speaking that way even though the customer deserves it. It’s like we’re supposed to just take being harassed and bullied by customers and treat them like they walk on gold. “Oh they’re screaming, let’s give them some discounts and money as a reward to make them stop.” Wtf. -_- I applaud this woman!

    I love it when stupid rude people think the phrase “the customer’s always right” think that means they can treat staff like sub-humans
    Edit; for context, the phrase originated with the idea that the customer is always right in what they choose to buy and how that affects what businesses should provide. But entitled people tend to confuse that with “I am the Most and only important person breathing this air, all should bow to me….so where is your manager”

    Good for her! I remember back in the late 80's when I was working as a server in a small town pub to pay for my schooling, these old-timers would grab or slap my butt every time I brought their drinks to them. I told them if they did it again they'd be wearing their drinks! But the owner of the pub told me that I had to put up with it because they were regulars. I quit 2 weeks later. This would be considered a crime these days. Thank goodness. But back then it was perfectly acceptable and staff were expected to take whatever was handed to them for the sake of making a buck. This video proves we've made some progress. Let's make some more!

      I work at a hotel and one of the laws in my state for right to refuse services is if we find them to be causing a general disturbance to other guests we can ask them to leave. It usually starts with a warning that if they continue to disturb the other guests they will be asked to leave the property. Just because you have a problem doesn't mean you need to make it everyone else's problem too. Simple as that.

I worked as a waitress for a while and people can be very arrogant and rude, and it's usually not the average person off the street that's got nothing it's usually the wealthy ones that have no patience.

But I had one that started cussing me out over something that was out of my control. While I didn’t snap back like this lady, I did look at her and with some authority I told her that she won’t be cussing at me like that. Felt good, because she did change her tune and apologize.

    Can kind of tell by his posture that he's one of those fake "just telling it like it is" types, who wasn't expecting to run into somebody who _actually_ does that.

    Waitress: "You're not wanted here!"

      @@damianocaniglia2489 14 now. 8 which deal with the public. I love every one of my employees but they know the customer comes first. My employees know that their "feelings" being hurt is not enough to "stand up for yourself". I hire persons with enough self respect and confidence that some schmuck customer would never contain the power to "hurt their feelings". If you let strangers hurt your feelings you have a multitude of problems that i want nothing to do with. Leave your feelings out of the workplace or go work for yourself. Its all about hiring the correct staff, period.

    I remember a time I went out to dinner with my dad for some father/daughter bonding time. We went to my favorite restaurant and the service wasn't the greatest. The waitress wasn't being lazy or rude, it was just really busy and they were short-staffed. The waitress was constantly apologizing for the delay of service, and I was telling it was okay just do your best. But dad was steadily getting angrier because we were there for way longer than he intended. I could tell the poor girl was scared of my dad because he kept glaring at her and made some rude remarks. Dad only paid the bill and refused to give a tip saying she didn't deserve it, and stormed out. I was beyond embarrassed; I not only gave her a huge tip, but also apologized for his behavior. On the way back home I lectured him about having manners and how he embarrassed me in front of everyone.
    If a man, who was almost 60 at the time, has to be scolded by his then teenage daughter about having manners, what does that say about him? Thankfully, my dad had gotten the message, because it didn't happen again.
