Working a long shift waiting tables you’re bound to have a slip-up here and there. This awkward server story comes to us from a Redditor who had an awkward moment. In the story, the server explained what happened.
After approaching a couple and asking if they were considering ordering dessert the man replied that he would have dessert at home, gesturing toward the woman across from him. The server, without much thought, responded by saying “Mmm sounds delicious!” which was a common phrase used when talking about food at home.
However, the server soon realized that the man was not referring to food and felt embarrassed.
In another incident, the server was describing the ingredients of a dish and accidentally said “and shit” while listing the ingredients, including garlic, onion, honey, vinegar, and fresh herbs.
Despite the slip-up, the server continued talking about the dish.
After sharing their own awkward server stories, they encouraged others to share this and it sparked a thread for the ages.
