In a moment of pure rage, this staff member tackles a rude customer in front of his boss and a full house of customers without even realizing he is doing it.

Some customers push every limit a service worker has, and this story is a perfect example. One bartender found himself dealing with a rude guest in front of his boss, his boss's wife, and a packed bar.

Working in places like that, where rude customers can become overwhelming, you need to have your management and peers at your back. You need to know you can rely on them when situations like this arise.

Unfortunately, this guy didn't seem to have that. Hopefully, he didn't stick around too long and found a better job with a better boss and a better environment.

That kind of workplace support makes all the difference.
