Has anyone else seen this ? 🤣 family leave bad review about a waitress because their child was crying so much she suggested they move onto the heated patio, instead they left and then emailed in the review and also left it on google it looks like.

The waitress has had it printed onto a t shirt and it's gone insanely viral.

She said she had an ocular migraine and it wasn't her best day at work, but other customers were looking at her to do something about the crying toddler so she suggested they move outside (in November ) and they left.

I'd be so embarrassed I left such a review and now the entire internet has seen it printed on a shirt.

Here is a Non daily mail link

I’m with the parents here. I wouldn’t be impressed to be told to sit outside in November either.

No, I wouldn’t be “sooooo embarrassed”. It’s not like they’ve said something awful in the review and now they've been identified. Surely they left the review because it’s what they thought and they wanted people to see it?

I was expecting this to be a hilariously ridiculous review - like, blaming the restaurant for the weather or something. "Didn't bother to hide her discomfort" - hardly rant of the decade.

But the folk who left the review have not been identified so hardly embarrassing for them? No?

I actually agree with point made in the review.

Dunno why she felt the need to have a t shirt made.

What point?

no the newspaper article used the word server

I can see both sides.

I'm sure the customer didn't want their child to be annoying other customers but it sounds like the waitress could have handled it a little better.

Not sure why having the review printed on a T shirt is 'fucking funny' or how it's getting payback?

Odd thing to do.
