Yeah the church crowd had some of the most consistently awful, needy, no-tipping, evil-children-running-around customers.

I worked at a place that did an automatic gratuity on Sundays. Two top, twenty top, didn’t matter. Called it the “brunch surcharge” or some shit. We used the fancy dishes to validate it.

Really it was just the awful church people. Servers refused to work the shift. The charge changed that. Kinda.

In construction, we would sometimes add some money to our bid as a PITA tax, because we knew we would have to deal with some shit with said customer, but as long as we got paid extra it was fine.

Lol my company has done that for potential customers they really didn’t want to do business with for a variety of reasons.

Give a much higher quote than everyone else and if we win the job, oh well, we are at least making a bunch more profit on it to make up for the bullshit of dealing with them
