Grilled shrimp and scallop skewers with roasted sweet potatoes, bacon and onion, and a side of grilled pineapple that I marinated in maple syrup, brown sugar and cinnamon.
Some lady called in to my work and demanded we make a special for her and her guests, so I quickly came up with this dish. They all ordered off our regular menu anyways. Assholes.
Speaking of assholes, this is what I deal with on a daily basis (bruschetta flatbread):

How does that make them assholes? At least they told you they don't want the tomato or onion. They could have ordered it as is and then just tossed the tomato and onion. If you think about it they are saving you money because you're probably not discounting the item when it's ordered like this.

bruschetta pretty much is tomato and onion.... They could have just ordered flatbread.

Or the chef could prepare the food the way the customer wants without complaining like he's paid to do.

I know what bruschetta is and a true classic Italian version of bruschetta does not have tomato or onion. It's just the grilled/toasted bread rubbed with garlic, topped with olive oil, salt, and pepper. More often than not Italians would put cured meats on it.
Is flatbread alone an option on the menu? If so then it's the server's mistake for not ringing it up correctly. If not then what else is the guest supposed to do?
The way it reads on the order ticket is redundant anyways.

I ordered bruschetta multiple times in Italy and it always came with tomatoes and onion.

1) Yes, they are. Maybe I shouldn't have said assholes, but definitely stupid!
2) I'll keep that in mind!
3) Yes I am! At a golf club.
To the people in here saying make the food how the customer wants. That's all fine and dandy until you start getting more orders, and more orders, and more people saying I want this instead of that. Making food quickly in a restaurant becomes muscle memory to some extent. This chit isn't the best example, but I have been doing this for 10 years and I have seen just about every hold you can imagine. It's fine to request a hold or even two, but when you start to fundamentally change a dish from what it was intended to be (as in bruschetta flatbread with no tomato and onion), you become "that guy/girl."
I know some people won't see it the way I do (and everyone is entitled to their opinions) and I don't know if those people have worked in kitchens before, but if you have, you know exactly where I'm coming from. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE to cook and LOVE being a chef, but as with any job, some things get to ya after a while!
More pics to come!

My left over bone-in ribeye with some scrambled eggs. I should have added some peppers and onions, but I was too lazy.
