In a viral TikTok, an Arby’s customer recorded a tense interaction between a manager and a customer, sparking discussion in the comments.
The video was uploaded by user @sofakingweetodded as he recorded the dispute at an Arby’s location in Hudson, Ohio. The video starts off with the manager cursing at a customer and snatching his drink away, saying, “enjoy your day.”
It is unknown what lead to this altercation but one of the employees at the cash register is trying to give the customer a refund. Then, an agreement escalated about the change, how the customer claims the employee “can’t even give the right change.” The manager asks the customer what he ordered and he claims it was a “No. 1 for $9.49.”
That’s when the dispute flares, the customer telling the manager “fuck you” to which the manager tells him that he has “a serious problem,” the fight escalating by the second. The customer accuses the manager of “not knowing how to run a place.” After that, a screaming match between them ensues, followed by a wave of cursing, and name-calling.
Toward the end of the video, the manager threatens to call the police, and the customer dares her to do so, which makes her go quiet. Throughout the video, the TikToker remains impartial, filming without trying to get involved.
