Three recent-ish customers (1 of 3): Confusion.

This late summer/early fall at the one (Thai) restaurant where I work now, a(n older) (curly-haired) (Jewish-looking) woman with a slight foreign accent and dark glasses and a dress of bright patterns was in with two friends, and she kept talking about the menu and (Thai) food and what dishes are good in general and what dishes are good here, etc. etc. etc.

And, after they all order their entrees, I bring over chili flakes and also some chili sauce for one of them, and she immediately takes the chili sauce and starts spooning it out onto the piece of cold rice paper-wrapped vegetarian summer roll that she has in her hand, neglecting entirely the peanut dipping sauce that comes with it.

And, their meals come, and one is upset that we served pad woon sen kee mao instead of pad woon sen, even though I had verbally confirmed the order like I always do with a table after getting everyone’s orders.

And, after they leave, the little ceramic spoon has gone missing from the pot of chili flakes on their table, and finally someone finds it, and they had not only put it in the pot of the chili-sauce, but it was covered in peanut dipping sauce, too, like they had just picked it up and indiscriminately used it with every single sauce that was present on the table, mixing peanut sauce with chili sauce and chili sauce with peanut sauce and vice-versa and whatnot, indiscriminately, not like you're supposed to do at all.
