Just curious as I’ve never been on the other side of the counter, how does this sort of thing tend to work at restaurants? Fast food and fast-casual places are where I’ve heard customers say things “pile as much lettuce on there as you’re allowed to” - is there ever a limit your supervisor instructed you for things like that?

Now obviously with up-charge items like extra meat or certain toppings I know the sizes tend to be pre-portioned to a serving utensil, but something like extra onions or tomatoes that goes uncharged - has anyone gotten into trouble for giving “too much”?

    Many years ago when I worked at Burger King, we had a regular customer who would order a cheeseburger with extra extra extra onion. She was a very sweet older lady, so we always obliged. We piled two inches of onions on those burgers, easily enough for 8 normal burgers. It was weird to all of us, but she absolutely loved them.
