Entire Waffle House Shift Kicks A Customer's Ass After He Takes A Swing At An Employee Over Hashbrowns Order

A viral Waffle House clip shows employees uniting fast when a customer’s hashbrown dispute turns violent.

It's been a few months since we stepped foot in a Waffle House. I'm happy to report, thanks to a video that has gone viral from inside one of the establishment's prestigious locations, that the culture of chaos is alive and well.

If there's an unruly customer who needs to be dealt with, employees are ready and willing to trade punches with that person. This particular incident is a masterclass in teamwork.

What appears to be almost every employee working the shift at that location steps in when one of their own is swung on by a customer. The customer is forced to leave a piece of his pride behind.

There isn’t any information included about where or when this occurred, but it can be gathered from the 44-second clip that the customer is upset about an order of hashbrowns that he claims to have paid for, but evidently did not receive.

When the video starts, the customer is already on the floor with an employee standing over him. Whatever transpired before the video picked up the action wasn’t enough of a deterrent to keep him from making a big mistake.

He stands up, winds up, and throws a wild right-hand that doesn’t connect. The employee doesn’t miss with his response, he then wrestles the customer to the ground where the entire shift gets in on kicking the customer's ass.

The incident reinforces Waffle House’s reputation for unforgettable late-night drama

The dinner and a show concluded with the customer face down on the floor being told to leave and never return. He gets up to his feet for a second time and is still upset about his order of hashbrowns.

A woman who appears to be with the customer talks him out of going another round with the Waffle House employees, and he angrily walks out without his hashbrowns.

This is how they take care of business when a customer is deemed to have gotten out of hand at some Waffle House locations. You're never going to get your hashbrowns by taking a swing at an employee.

It is true we don’t know how the customer ended up on the floor to begin with, but it's unlikely that he calmly walked up to the counter and politely pointed out that something was missing from his order.

As with any such works of art, social media enjoyed the action thoroughly.
