Second time he sent back the egg-yolk omelet for having some white. BS that his wife is allergic only to egg whites.

Third time he got upset the egg-yolk omelet came with fries instead of salad.

Now if his wife is allergic to fries then I feel sad for her but he’s still a tiny cretin for yelling at servers.

The server obviously didn't handle it well.

What did the server obviously mishandle?

Multiple mistakes. "I'm so sorry!" goes a long way. Likewise taking responsibility for the error and the annoyance it caused. Not once, but twice. Come on how unprofessional.

you mean the minimum wage hourly worker? Yes, she said "Oh my, let me take that back for you"

DP. I think he was a complete jerk but I doubt that any server at that restaurant is making only the minimum wage. Likely that server is making 2 or 3 times what a teacher makes annually. Just sayin'.

It's not like he's going to wither and die of starvation...

Neither is the waitress he complained to about it. The restaurant should have been highly apologetic, not defensive and aggressive.

Are you familiar with the concept of not kicking down? The server was apologetic and Corden was an ass. Then the replacement order had potatoes instead of salad and Corden was an ass about that, too.

When a restaurant screws up, it owes you a corrected order. A lot of them will throw in freebies, too, as a gesture of goodwill, but Corden had already demanded those (why? He can afford to pay for drinks). If it screws up again, it needs to keep trying until it gets things right. But as long as employees are making a good faith effort to fix things, why be a douche? What does that achieve?

Well, yes. You make it sound like, they gave him a free dessert and he was an ass about that, too. No, they messed up his order -- twice.

I was a waitress for years when I was young. A manager would have comped his check or given him something for free right away if a waitress or the kitchen messed up the replacement order. Good grief, your standards are low. Where do you eat, McDonalds?

That still doesn't excuse rudeness. It's even rude at McDonalds to be an ass when someone gets your order wrong. A hissy fit is never required for food when it's not the last meal you'll ever eat. Do you think the more you pay the bigger your sensepr of entitlement and ego get to be?

I think everyone has a hissy fit every once in a while. Admit it. After getting an order wrong twice, I think he was triggered. He's a comedian, not a priest.

You seriously think a waitress doesn't have the ability to say, "Let me take that back for you"? Are you serious? This is part of the job -- being able to speak to customers and represent the restaurant.

And she's not a minimum wage worker. She works for tips.

Waitress DID try to make it right: she said "Oh my, let me take that back for you"

He's not a priest A LOT

I agree he sounds like an ass, but on the allergy thing --- my sister has an egg allergy and she can eat small amounts of the allergen without it bothering her a lot. Like if she eats a cupcake, which only has like 1/8 of an egg, she's basically fine especially with a benadryl. If she were to eat a whole omelet, her face would all swell up and she'd need a shot of something. So I can see someone like her saying that they could eat an egg yolk omelette, but not a regular omelette.

But he insists he did absolutely nothing wrong. Shouldn't he just own up to his behavior?

Right? How could you even tell in a cooked omelet if there was some egg white. I can't imagine wanting this or getting upset if it wasn't correct. The only thing I can come up with is she is allergic to egg whites but it would be A. super risky to order this in a restaurant and B. that would have been reported in the press about it.

It depends on how the egg is cooked. She may be on a special diet.

Then she should eat at home.

Seriously? You can't expect a restaurant to cook EGGS properly? Any first grader can make eggs.

How do we know they didn’t cook them properly? The women was likely just being a diva.

I think he's an arrogant jerk, but he did put up a not terrible apology during his monologue last night.

I haven't been following this thread, but am I the only one who is shocked that James Corden has a wife?

[Anonymous]

Interesting how people (or maybe this is crisis p.r.?) bend over backwards to defend some closet case millionaire celeb and his beard wife -- but when that banker went crazy because the smoothie place used peanut butter when his kid had a peanut allergy, everyone wanted the guy's life ruined.

If you have an egg allergy, you don't order eggs at a restaurant. And I really doubt any allergy is the culprit, most certainly just Hollywood weirdos eating diet fad nonsense because they're so bored and decadent.

A lot of closeted gay men have a wife and kids. They often come out of the closet when the kids are adults. But most never come out of the closet.

I think it’s just that one poster. Corden is a well-established dbag, known for his shitty behavior to waitstaff, crew members, and fans for many years now.

I’m surprised Corden didn’t wonder how many people spat on the food when it was brought back.

Who was following this banker story and when? Your definition of "everyone" is unusual

Yeah I don’t like Corden or the smoothie-throwing guy.
