As the video kicks off, the customer sat at the drive-thru window honks their car horn in an obnoxious manner, prompting the employee to get a little heated. “You want the money?” he says, before the cash is snatched out of his hand.

Clearly annoyed by the customer’s behavior, the cashier yells for them to “pull up” to the front of the store as the car pulls away – even slamming the drive-thru window in frustration at what has just unfolded.
Many viewers quickly expressed their support for the employee, praising them for matching the customer’s unruly attitude.
“You cannot demand a service while simultaneously abusing, degrading, or mocking those who provide it,” said one. I see nothing wrong with this man getting mad,” added another. “People that don’t respect customer service workers deserve nothing less than lifetime solitary confinement,” commented another.
The post continues to pick up views as TikTok users are stunned by how the customer could act in such a way.
