These Hilarious Tweets About Working In Hospo Over Christmas Are Way Too Real
Ever wonder why retail workers complain so effing much?
They have set hours, set policies, and don’t have to deal with a dude throwing a fit about his coffee temp.
I’m sorry, but if you’re b*tching about retail then you probably wouldn’t last one day in hospo. The customers are crazier, they complain about sh*t you never even knew existed, you never finish on time, and all those days that the public get off? Yep, you gotta work them.
Christmas is everything you hate about hospitality but on drugs. It’s the time of year when groups come together to try and ruin your life. They’ve suddenly got more balls, like things done ten different ways, and don’t even get me STARTED on split bills.
So whether you have to work Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day, just know that you’re not alone – I too will be right there with you.
Here are the most relatable tweets about working in hospitality this Christmas:

a customer choose to come into the cafe for the sole purpose of making fun of the coffee we’re serving and asking if we “ever have normal coffee” & I’m just left wondering where ppl find the energy for such dumb behavior
