So that's a thing 😂

If you've been to a restaurant before and can't seem to book a table no matter how hard you try afterwards, the reason might be that you've been labeled a 'difficult customer,' making it impossible to reserve a spot again. Once the screen was revealed, notes like 'The King of Lateness' and 'Always Rushing' were visible. One restaurant owner even jokingly shared that they once saw a customer labeled as the 'King of Scammers' by another establishment, complete with a yellow crown. 'Inline is a lifesaver! Seeing the notes tells you exactly how to deal with them,' and 'Don't tell them you're spilling the secrets.' Some also revealed that even if a customer is blocked, they can still call to make a reservation, and the restaurant can't refuse the call, so they just have to remind colleagues to be extra vigilant. Another restaurant industry netizen shared that during busy times, it might not be possible to immediately grasp the situation of regular customers from external staff. Before the customer was about to be seated, a colleague reminded them, 'This customer is difficult, be careful,' and only later did they realize the person had already been tagged.
