The chances of visiting a Subway at least once in a lifetime are pretty high. Whether trying to find something fast to eat and stumbling upon the green and yellow signs quickly and efficiently dealing with your hunger, or searching for hangover relief—this sandwich palace seems to always be nearby when you need it. And it’s run by the glorious sandwich artists, toasting your bread, spreading the tuna mayo and complementing everything with scrumptious chipotle sauce.
It’s no surprise that out of all the fast food chains out there, Subway has a dedicated community on Reddit with 16.2k sandwich artists—talking, sharing, and loving (as well as hating) everything to do with the birthplace of your footlong chicken teriyaki dreams.

I was having a lousy day as a cashier, and a kind customer went back in the store and bought me a nice greeting card, letting me know that she’d been where I was and things would get better. It’s lovely people like that that make it worth going out into the world.

One time, I went to buy gas and the cashier asked how my day was going. I asked her the same thing and she said I was the first customer to do that all day.

The truth is that even the best seasoned employees eventually start hating the customers for doing certain things and they are sharing their love/hate relationship with their customers online. Bored Panda has picked the funniest, tastiest, most hateful and most loving posts to illustrate this well-known establishment.

    True enough. I worked for years in a bicycle shop in Santa Barbara, California. We'd gone through years of drought and suddenly, it rained. And flooded. I called the shop's owner and said I'd be by anyway - we'd talked about filling sandbags and trying to keep the water in the parking lot and not in the shop. I rode through a couple of feet of water a few times - the whole city was shut down. Got to the shop and just in the nick of time, got the sandbags set up. During which time a guy in a f'ng kayak came along and asked me to open the register and sell him a patch kit. $3 item. I literally couldn't believe it. I just gave it to him and told him to pay later. He thanked me and paddled off. Later, I wondered what the hell he was doing patching a bicycle tyre in a flood.

    Worked in a mountain hur, above 2300 m sea level. Woke up to 1,5 m snow one morning. We decided not to open as it was a good hour walk from the nearest cable car station up to us in GOOD WEATHER. No less than 17 customers fought themselves through the snow, there were parts where they were almost literally swimming in it. And it took them hours but they came.

    A woman who works at a Cricket store told me about a customer I see attempting to pay for his phone after the man left. Cricket opens at 10 a.m. but he always gets there ten minutes early and attempts to open the door so he can walk in and pay. He does it every time he gets there Not only that but, it takes the guy at least 20-25 minutes to pay for his phone because first, he doesn't remember what his phone number is and then when he does remember it, he doesn't remember what his four digit pin is. I told the woman I'm surprised she could keep herself going because if it had been me that it happened to, I would have told the guy just forget it and get out. That woman clearly has more patience then me.

He wanted 1 liter of paint and they are mixing it for him but of course the basic colors are not 1 liter. It's obvious right duh... but apparently this is not "right" by this bonehead. I was rolling my eyes so hard I can feel the earth adjusting it's orbit.

    Patrons at our library used to do that and we usually just stopped doing the search for their question until they noticed and got off the phone. If they tried to get us to continue, we'd say pleasantly, "When you finish your call." The idea that they should actually not waste our time making a phone call when we are trying to have a productive interaction with them seemed to irritate many, but I can't help you if you won't cooperate when I need more information from you.

Then I looked at the receipt, and discovered that all the complements I was giving to the cashier were coming back to me in the form of free upgrades. The upgrades were free anyway, but I didn't know they were an option. Now I get extra everything, no matter what Wendy's I go to.

    I am the opposite, I am too awkward to talk to the employee, let alone tell them what I want, I feel rude, even if I'm not. that's why I always go to restaurants with someone more direct than me, so I can just kind of whisper to them what I want. And if I have to tell them myself, I always say thank you and sorry way too much. I feel like I'm going to offend them by asking for what I want

    I find it easy to say "I need two sandwiches. The first one is a foot long turkey..." and 99% of the time the worker will slice the requested bread, lay on the turkey and cheese, ask if I want it toasted, and then say "And your second sandwich?" If they don't, I just follow up with "My other sandwich is..." Waiting all the way until wrap time is rude and wastes everyone's time.

    I get it... but if you are not closed yet and I'm really hungry! You are not closed yet! How many minutes before closing is acceptable? If you are closing at five are people not allowed to come in at quarter to five? Five to Five? So if you want no one in at five them close at four thirty... or if you close at four thirty then four? Come on... closing hours mean closing hours. I live in Australia so maybe it means something different because we pay our workers a decent wage and they get paid for cleaning up after closing but if I come into subway at 4:50 you are not closed. I won't ask you for 50 subs but come on! You are still open!

    Yeah but also you have worked a long shift on your feet, you are tired and you are counting the minutes until closing. I think decency says customers should come in plenty of time to complete their order and get them out the door before closing. In the example provided by OP, that is not going to happen.

    When I worked for a Pizza chain, about once a week we'd get a call a minute or two before close. Which meant a delay while we made the pizza, then being down a person while it was delivered. Irritating, but yes, we were technically open so we of course did it. One night, my manager said to answer the phone but say we are closed. It was two minutes till closing. The customer got mad, and said that they knew we were still open for another couple of minutes. She knew because she worked for another location of the same chain, and had her watch set to "company time". WTF, she knew first-hand how disruptive such calls are!? And was timing it that way on purpose!

    Lets compare. A Subway 12" black forest ham is $6.49 + tax. In walmart, a bag of subrolls cost $2.98 for 6. 9oz of hikshire farms bf ham is $2.98. 8 oz of tillamook cheese is $3.48. . Stores with deli allow you to buy sub rolls separetly. Ice berg lettuce $1.28, tomattos on the vine $1.98. Cucumbers about 50 cents. So the $20 or so afte you get the rest of the vegetables and you favorite condiment would probably break down to about the same cost after you divide the stuff into 6 sandwiches.

    I haven't been to Subway in years. When did it become a custom to start tipping them? I've seen this in a handful of restaurants that only do take-out (even pre-pandemic), but I've never heard of it at a chain store. I take that back - Starbucks has tip jars. But that's the only other chain place I can think of that encourages the customer to tip.
