A Subway worker went viral on TikTok for stating how annoying it is when customers order a dozen cookies, sparking a debate. Is it in the spirit of being a Subway patron to… order a bunch of cookies?

Captioned, “Happens too often,” the video shows subway workers making cookies. Text layovers narrate the video and it is dubbed with comedic audio.
“Customer: Can I order a dozen cookies,” reads a text layover as an employee stands at the register.
A devil eyes filter and dramatic music underscores the Subway worker’s annoyance as he puts cookies in the oven.

This is just the latest in a series of viral TikToks posted by fast-food workers commiserating about their job.

“Closing a sub that has every veggie 😓😓,” says @jdrizzle17.
“One time someone was like ‘can I get ALL of your cookies’ and we couldn’t deny them technically. It was the end of the night so it was fine but still,” says @conner_rad.
