This was a while back but it screws me up even today.
The way drinks work at my place is a bottle and a glass of ice for soft drinks and ice tea. Juice is in a tall glass with ice. And teapots and cups.
So I hand over an order to a table of a family. One juice, one ice tea, two cups of tea.
As I hand the ice tea to the mum she asks me if the juice her daughter is drinking came in a bottle like the ice tea.
SC: Excuse me, but does the juice come in bottles?
Me: No, is something wrong?
SC: I think the ice is dirty.
Me:...
I had to get my manager over to explain. We had an ice maker in the back that we poured purified water into. IF you really wanted to, I could have gotten some out of a urinal.
If the ice was dirty I definitely would have made sure if there were any bugs in there.
I know it sounds like I'm in the wrong, but this moment was a big WTF moment for me.
