Taco Bell employees held their own against an abusive customer during a late-night order, and TikTok is applauding the way they handled the exchange.
According to In The Know, Tik Tok account @dallas_texastv uploaded a video that has gained 5.4 million views, 758,000 likes and 17,000 comments, all in just three short days.
The footage, captured by someone waiting in line behind the angry customer in question, appears to begin in the middle of the interaction.
“Why don’t you come out with your own eyes and take a f***king look,” the irate man says to the drive-thru speaker.
“She actually is outside. She can see right at you,” the employee responds calmly.
Suddenly, another employee intervenes — still remaining polite but mincing far fewer words than their co-worker. “Sir, common sense would tell you to drive up … but, hey, common sense isn’t that common,” the employee says.
This seems to enrage the customer, who intensifies the exchange by swearing at and insulting the employee. The employee tries to end the attack by yelling out “be blessed,” but the customer continues, until finally, after a slew of curses from the angry man, the video ends. (Adult language)
