The Panera Bread Diaries

I work at Panera Bread . This is a place where workers of panera can come and relate to all the bull-crap things we go through :)

What is your Panera Bread horror story?

[thepanerastory]

Me: *works on weekend*

Customer: have a good weekend!

Me: *smiles at them even though you know damn well that working weekend mornings suck ass and you still have coffee to make, Windows to clean, and listen to more people complaining how you are out of plain bagels at 9 in the morning* Thanks you too!

Me: would you like chips,apple, or bread for your side

Customer: can I have fries?

Me:... we only have chips, apple, bread

Customer: but we done it here before *rants about stuff*

Customer daughter: mom, they don't have fries, I gave you McDonald's fries the other day...

Customer: oh...

Just finished another fine day at panera... where I had to look at how much sodium was in every salad and sandwich for a customer over the phone in the middle of our rush

[thepanerastory]

I wonder if the customers know how stupid their face looks while looking at the menu

[thepanerastory]

Is my store the only one that says "mother bread"?

It's basically our religion and I was just curious.

When panera bread customers put their pager on the counter or try and hand it to you

😒😒😒😒😒😒😒 There is a box. With a sign. USE IT!

Bitches be like

“Let’s go to Panera in the middle of a blizzard to get some mac&cheese and broccoli cheddar”
