"The Customer is always right in matters of taste" is an old saying from British economist Adam Smith in the mid 1700's. It's only about stocking a business and/or what services a business provides. Basically you sell what your customers want to buy and not what you want to sell. The saying that people mistake "the customer is always right" for is the American saying "The Customer is King" where you have to do anything and everything the customer wants to get a sale.

The cheeseburger without cheese story: funnily enough the opposite happened to me before. I once went to a school where the building we had most of our class at was situated the farthest away from any cafeteria or on-campus food places except for the one burger stand, so whenever we had to get a quick snack between our classes, the classes in that building would usually buy from there. So one day, I decided I wanted to get a cheeseburger. This was around the afternoon, it was hot, and I just wanted to get the day done, so I was just going on autopilot at the time. When I went to the burger stand, I asked the guys there for "One cheese, please." I've bought multiple times there and said the same thing every time, I've even heard a bunch of other people order the same way, but I guess because it wasn't too busy when I ordered, the guys there decided to mess with me. They quickly grabbed one slice of cheese from their cooler and presented it to me, "Here you go, miss." Since I was already pretty checked out at the time, the first thing that I thought was that they were quick, so I quickly grabbed my money from my pocket and tried to hand it to the guy, but when I saw what he was holding, I was confused what it was. It wasn't in a paper bag like it usually was, it didn't have buns, and it was yellow all over. I looked at it for a good few seconds before looking at the guy and asking, "What's this?" The guy just chuckled and told me, "It's your cheese. You said you wanted one, right?" That was when I realized what I had said and that they had fully complied to my request. I just laughed because it was pretty funny, and then I clarified that I wanted one cheeseburger, and I got my quick snack in the end. After that day though, I always made sure to ask for "One cheeseburger, please." Just to be sure. 😂

To be fair, most McDonald's burgers are not regular hamburgers.

OMG. I'm a 3rd year vet student (we did our junior surgery lab last semester though, not 2nd year), and that story is soooo familiar. We "had lunch" from 12-1, but surgeries started at 1pm sharp and we were supposed to have all our machinery and supplies set up, and the patient pre-medded and on the prep room table, ready to induce and intubate BY then. They actually did tell us to make sure we eat something so we don't faint on the operating floor, despite having the same expectation OP's school did that we basically ditch our lunch hour to prep lol. Oh, and we also had a super grouchy anesthesiologist in particular, who likes to beeline toward people to yell at them for no reason. They did that to me to when I was in the anesthetist role to demand "why is there so much fluids in that bag" -- when I recalculated how much was SUPPOSED to be in there, step-by-step right in front of them and proving it was correct, they just said "oh" and walked away. No apology for marching over accusatorily like I'd done something wrong when I literally didn't lmao. They also told a couple people, IN THE MIDDLE OF STRESSFUL SURGERY, that they were going to fail them for the day for tiny stupid reasons, like one of them forgot to fill out one line in the physical exam portion of the anesthesia record beforehand. Not a drug calculation. Not the endotracheal tube size. Not the fluid rate. But some little thing from the physical exam box that didn't serve a purpose to look at during the procedure whatsoever. Otherwise, I think our overall experience was thankfully a little better than how OP described theirs; the other clinicians were generally not mean (just that one 🙄) and at least they didn't do crap like grabbing our instruments and making us rescrub. We also had teams of 4 so we had an extra non-sterile person who could go grab anything like that if we needed. TBH it sounds VERY irresponsible to make students just leave the animal under anesthesia for that much longer just 'cause. Our clinicians stressed the importance of getting them in and out in as little time as we could manage, because the longer they're under, the bigger patient safety concern it is.

Found a parking ticket on my car, for "no base sticker"! The sticker on my front bumper was partially hidden by long grass. So I go to the base Master-At-Arms office (basically Navy cops), and am soon trying to explain to the Chief MAA, barely able to talk and drooling blood on his desk. He finally yells, "Get out!" and tears up the ticket. Hehe. Got the rest of the day off work.

So, “Supervisor or Manager to assist in cleaning the stock room” became “S&M to the back to strip.” It went over REALLY WELL the first time that line was called over the PA system in front of a store full of customers.😂

I was looking into different Vet schools because I love animals, and would want to help them in anyway I can. The first and last school I looked into I had someone give me a tour of the school, and a few classes they had. At one point she mentioned that part of the training included students having to be able to put an animal to sleep even though the animal is completely healthy. I'm not sure if all Vet programs talk about this or not. The lady explained that time, and time again pet owners who are making a huge move in their lives, or are just unable to continue to care for the animal decide to put their pet to sleep to not have to deal with the hassle of rehoming their pet. Apparently, to the owners "It's easier this way." That absolutely broke my heart. After hearing that I stopped looking into becoming a Vet because I was not fine with having to follow through with something like that.

One man, a wonderful, lovely guy who loved his German shepherd more than life itself, got the awful news one day that said pupper was suffering from terminal cancer, and was in so much pain he couldn't go on. He thought he was going to walk out of there WITH his best pal, but instead, from a computer in a different room, I watched as the diagnosis was entered into the dog's records, and then I heard the poor guy slam his hands onto the exam table and just started SOBBING and SHOUTING, "NO, NO, NOOOOO." The entire staff took turns going into the bathroom to cry, so we could hold it together in front of him. His grief haunts my memories. Awful.

About the after talk of story 5 I'm hoping to go back to school to become a vet assistant and I know it's going to be hard for that reason: having to put animals down and seeing them in pain. My thought process is "I will be helping sick and injured animals get better, or at least helping to ease their pain. And if an animal needs to be put down, I'm putting them to an eternal sleep and ending their suffering." The helplessness I felt at seeing my dog hurt so bad she needed to be put down or live a life of suffering actually help solidify it. I can help the animals when the owners feel helpless and that will make it worth it (and the helping animals as well)

I grexed about getting crap for it, escalated to my boss, but he happily threw me under the bus, so I swore out loud, "Never again". A month or so later, I was on my way in and was passing by both my boss and the owner of the company discussing the project I was working on. Got called over, _"Hang on, gonna sign in first"._ Got called more insistently, repeated myself more insistently, as I had like 1-2min to sign in and not be "late". Finally came over to them after signing in, and they're both glaring at me. _"Next time we call you about something business-related, you _*_don't_*_ go walking off like you did."_ "Nope, sorry, but I got crapped on for 'being late' after helping someone before signing in, so as soon as I walk in, that's going to be the *first* thing I do, to not get crapped on again." And I was looking right at my boss as I said it. He didn't say a word. Toxic place, so I didn't much care if that was a CLM.

I'm not gonna lie, it was very hard emotionally/mentally working as an animal caregiver, and vet tech. I would imagine it's even more emotionally/mentally hard working as a vet.

My wife and I have had many cats and we've always made sure that when life wasn't enjoyable any more that they be put to sleep. And yes, we cried every time we did that because we'd just lost a family member.

Had my cat for 15 years, from when he was 2 months old, and when it came time to say goodbye, I was so gutted. Still am two years later. I never expected to feel like I actually lost a child but I absolutely did. I couldn't imagine being a vet so I absolutely have all the respect for them and how they help us.

The average career length for a vet nurse is five years for a reason. Just to put it into perspective, it's a two year degree, and a $300 board exam to be licensed as a vet nurse. Not to mention the hours of continuing education needed every two years. I bet vet careers would be just as short if it wasn't for all the student loan debt they put themselves in to get their degree.

Story 3: At some restaurants and fast food places, they (annoyingly) have the cheese on by default on the menu. Like I could order a "quarter pounder no cheese" but they would hear "quarter pounder *with* cheese" and I won't get what I want anyways. Trust me I've tried this hundreds of times. Every single time. If I just try to order a quarter pounder no cheese or word it like that at all, I always end up getting cheese on it Nowadays you can just order from the app, but if there isn't a "bacon hamburger" on the menu, I'm ordering a "bacon cheeseburger no cheese". I know it's dumb. But it's not my fault the restaurants engrain the idea that everybody wants cheese on their burger. It should be the opposite really, cheese should be the opt IN choice, not the opt OUT one. Some of us are lactose intolerant, and some of us just don't like American cheese.

Looks like people miss the point on ordering a cheeseburger with no cheese. Many fast-food workers are not... deep thinkers, nor do they need to be to do their job well. It's a job that requires knowledge of the procedures involved, and understanding what is meant when a customer uses a specific word. Other than that, it's about efficiency in getting the customer served and out the door. Different items are prepared in different ways. My Arby's order is a good example: What I want is roast beef on a sesame seed bun, with their cheddar cheese sauce. They used to sell that as an "Arby's Melt" but it's no longer on the menu. They do have something called the "Beef N' Cheddar" which is similar but not what I like. That one has onion flecks on the bun and has barbecue sauce. I could use the old term and employees that have been there a while may know what I mean. Newer ones may not. So, to be completely clear on what I'm looking for, I say "Roast Beef Sandwich, add cheddar cheese sauce" Does it sound dumb? Maybe, but that's how I get what I want, so I don't care.
