A straight couple complained about their ‘flamboyant’ gay server and asked to switch to someone else.
Reddit user PhiPhiAokigahara took to the social media platform to voice his shock over the incident and the response from his work’s management.
He titled the post: ‘We demand a new server, we don’t want this flamboyant gay one.’
He goes on: ‘Yeah. That just happened last night.

‘I serve at a well-known chain Italian restaurant and was making my rounds in my section tonight. That included greeting two older white people.
‘I pleasantly collected their drink order and let them know they can take their time with the menus and to let me know when they’re ready,’ he said.
‘They want a new server’
And then it all takes a sharp turn for the worse.
He continues: ‘I’m in the kitchen talking to a co-worker when the host comes through:
‘”Phiphi do you have [table] 32?”
‘”Yeah, why?”
‘”Well, they want a new server… uhh its because you’re gay.”
‘Cue my freak-out. Apparently the moment I left the table, the husband stormed to the host stand and loudly demanded a non-flamboyantly gay server because “he’s a man of God and can’t be around that.”
What happens next is unbelievable. Read the full post:
