“We live in a small town. I’m not going to abandon my FAVORITE restaurant because of one person,” she wrote, followed by a laughing emoji.

Plus, according to Anna Lee, everything went fairly smoothly.

“We haven’t been together in over 7years and I’ve been with my boyfriend now over a year,” she detailed. “So it wasn’t awkward at all for me. The past is the past.”

The whole story led others to share their similar tales of running into exes on the job.

“This actually happened to me a couple years ago,” a commenter recalled. “He called me ma’am in front of my family and I felt so embarrassed I wanted to laugh.”

“As a server, this is hilarious! I had to wait on my ex and his wife, which was an x friend of mine,” a second user wrote.

“When my cousin got married for the second time, his ex wife was a part of the catering staff at the wedding,” an additional user claimed. “Sooo funny and sooo awkward.”
