If you’ve ever worked in a restaurant in your life, you’ve probably heard this one before…
A TikTok user named Kevin has a series of videos called “Working in the Service Industry” and in this one, he pokes fun at customers who say they know the owner so they can hopefully get some kind of preferential treatment from restaurant staff.

Kevin’s video features a funny skit that shows him asking a customer if everything is okay and the response he gets is, “Yeah, we’ve been waiting for a table for like five minutes.”
Kevin explains that the restaurant is busy and there’s a wait to which the customer says that classic line…“I don’t think you understand. I know the owner.”

Kevin then offers up a reply that I’m sure he’s never, ever used in real life but has wanted to say a million times: “Oh my god, no way! I know him too, he gave me the job, so shut the f**k up.”
Zing!
