A video viewed nearly 13 million times shows a server yelling after a customer who reportedly left a low tip.
The shockingly rude and sarcastic service from a restaurant's waitstaff is seen in several other videos shared by the TikTok account @boozeboyss, but the attitude from the servers is actually part of the restaurant's schtick.
Restaurant chain Dick's Last Resort employs servers who are deliberately rude to customers.
"At Dick's Last Resort we don't just serve up tasty food and awesome drinks," the restaurant's careers page reads. "We also serve up feisty, sarcastic banter, laughter and an experience unlike any other."
The video opens with a server who is setting drinks down at the table just as another server yelled after a departing customer, telling them that they should have tipped for the free items they received.
"Thank you for being horrible," the server yelled. "Next time, go to McDonald's and have it your way."
When asked what the customer tipped, the server responded, "Sh***y."
In addition to that server's rant, the video captured the group's own experience while dining at the restaurant.
As they were ordering, one member of the group paused to collect his and said "umm."
"We got no uhhms," the server retorted.
Another member of the group asked for some water, to which another staff member said, "We ain't got water we're in the desert."
A server returned to the table with a cup and tossed the ice that was in it at a customer.
This was not the only video that chronicled the group's experience.
@boozeboyss posted several other videos that showed their time at the restaurant.
Throughout the course of several videos, a server mocked a customer's order of chicken tenders, napkins were thrown at the table and an employee called another member of the group a "cracked out [Machine Gun Kelly]," referring to the musician.
Writing to Newsweek @boozeboyss said the group had never eaten at the restaurant before, but enjoyed their time.
"We all had a blast there and didn't take any of the jokes to heart, just thought it was all fun," they said.
They heard of the restaurant through friends and saw some videos showcasing the service.
Many viewers were thrilled by the servers' attitudes, and some wrote they would like to work at the restaurant.
"I wish I worked here I could finally be myself and not get fired," a viewer commented.
"I have now found my perfect workplace," another commenter wrote.
One commenter wrote they were interested in learning how the interview process for the restaurant works.
"After working in the restaurant business for 5 years I would love to work here lol," a comment read.
Although many were amused, some shared they would not want to go to this type of restaurant.
"Who else doesn't go to those places because of low self esteem?" a viewer asked.
One wrote that they found the videos funny but felt they would feel "awkward" if they went to the restaurant themself.
Newsweek reached out to @boozeboyss for further comment.
Other servers have gone viral for sharing some insight into their job.
A woman posted a TikTok video showing how little she earns on a paycheck while working at a restaurant. She urged customers to tip their servers.
Another server shared a video in which she claimed she was left a scripture card instead of a monetary tip.
One video featured several servers who shared what their pet peeves were in their line of work.
