‘The Starbucks worker effect’: Five Guys worker complains about customers who order grilled cheese with an extra patty
A Five Guys worker sparked debate in the comments after they posted a viral TikTok complaining about customers who order a grilled cheese with an extra patty.
The six-second video features TikTok user @lil.loner29 who filmed themselves in the back angrily placing their hands on their head, with melancholy music playing in the background. The text overlay reads, "'can i get a grilled cheese w a extra patty?'" Then, the content creator screams inaudibly, throwing their hat onto the floor, and falls to their knees.

“Why are y’all acting like complaining is wrong now,” one person said.
“Why do y’all act like fast food workers r never allowed to complain about their job in the slightest,” a second agreed.
“Fast food workers are allowed to have human emotions and feel stress. everyone gets annoyed at their job,” a third defended.
A couple of former Five Guys workers related to the video.
“Lol every time I still work at five guys I be Soo mad,” one worker empathized.
“The way this is me anytime someone orders this,” another commented.
