People who work in food service or customer service: What’s the dumbest thing a customer ever insisted was “the law” or “illegal”?

Brought to you by my discovery that some people think that “the customer is always right” isn’t the slogan of a long-dead department store, but rather it’s an actual call the cops law.

Wait, you can‘t drink in the US even with permission from your parents?

in some places it's legal to drink while underage if it's in your own house and with a parent's permission

Very few states allow it, and none of them in public. It's only ever allowed in a private residence (usually the residence of your parent/guardian) while under the direct supervision of your parent/guardian. Even then it can become a crime if somehow the law gets involved and they feel like pressing charges.
