    Once when I was working on campus at the dorm dining facility, I had a girl who was a freshman come up and order "dippy eggs". I smiled and asked her, "What are dippy eggs?" She laughed at me and said, "You know, eggs you dip your toast into? Come on every restaurant has dippy eggs!" I was still confused, but I kept smiling and said, "You mean eggs over easy?" She stopped laughing and looked me in the eyes and said, "No. Dippy Eggs." And then she sauntered off.

    I told the cooks to make her eggs over easy. When I gave them to her, she smiled brightly and said, "See, I knew you knew what dippy eggs were!"

    ....

    How did she end up getting into college?

    Ha, I would've assumed she meant soft-boiled, so the yolk is still runny - that's the only time I dipped my toast into eggs as a kid.

    Dippy eggs? sounds like a "cultural" thing

    Wikipedia says that's a Maryland thing...or Pennsylvania Dutch thing

    I worked in a bakery where we sliced bread fresh. A customer asked me for a sliced loaf and then freaked when I actually sliced it!!

    Used to work in a deli.. We had this one woman who INSISTED on having her meat cut into dust pretty much, I put the slicer on the absolute lowest setting, and it wasn't thin enough for her..she started yelling at me that the slicer needed to be on ZERO, I politely told her that zero isn't an option, zero is when the machine is off..she argued with me, even when I showed her that it would not work on zero, then told me she was taking down my name and blah blah blah..nothing happened, but that was the worst experience that I've had with a customer.
    I am a server now, and I have learned that there are some people in the world that go out to eat, just simply to complain about something. I have had a ton of rude, selfish, *kitten* customers in all of the places I have worked, but the lady at the deli has to be my worst/oddest customer ever.

    working in fast food for 7 years you hear ALOT of ridiculous requests. Working at wendys they have the "baconator" which comes in single double or triple. I had a man come thru drive thru order a Triple Baconator meal Large Size with a Diet coke.. He said he didnt want to go over his calories for the day and thats why he drinks diet.. So of course i had to laugh but to top it off He wants the bacon seperate from the sandwhich and crushed into tiny pieces and only have half the cheese on the sandwhich the other half with the bacon bits melted In a container.
    Ive been asked for sandwhiches to be cut into 1/4 size pieces.
    For meat to be rare but cooked on the outside only.

    My first job was at Jimboys Tacos. No joke, customers actually used to come in and ask for tacos, no lettuce (the only thing that's good for you in the whole dang taco) with extra meat, extra cheese, and EXTRA GREASE! We already had to put a squirt of oil between every corn tortilla in the package (for some reason, still not sure why) and when they asked for extra grease, we had to take the grease from when we cooked the meat and pour it over the top of the tortilla while it was on the grill! GROSS!

    We called them heart attacks. "Order up! 3 heart attacks!" :laugh:

    I used to own a restaurant and an old couple came in and ordered 2 dinners. They requested them to come out seperate. So the waitress tells me the old man was eating and the wife was watching, and then when the old man was done they requested the wifes meal. While the wife ate the husband watched......very, very odd. They also did the same for their dessert. After they finished I went to the table to ask them how their meal was, to which they replied wonderful. So I said I just have to ask, why do you two eat your food seperate? The man pulls out his teeth and say"we only have 1 set of dentures!!!" True story

    NO WAY! That is so gross. **Running to puke now.

    When I worked at a funeral home a family had a father who died 2 days before their Florida vacation. They asked to have the visitation and funeral upon their return - in 2 weeks! And then they were upset when we couldn't offer them an open casket.

    My uncles "daughters" (aka: his girlfriend's kids who were nowhere near family status, as far as our actual family is concerned) tried to do that. They wanted to postpone his funeral because they had tickets to Disney and were taking a Florida vacation. Thankfully, my mom did not let that happen, and put those *****es in their place.

    Oh, and as for the "Eggies" thing...wow. That girl sounds like a real winner. :laugh: My family is from Maryland, but none of them call eggs like that "Eggies." Just "runny eggs" or "eggs that aren't cooked all the way" or something. :tongue:
