Country Club Drama: Frau Lets Her Children Eat Wedding Cake

I work at a country club in an esteemed section of town. Very old money.

Anyway, today we were having a small private wedding party outdoors in a beautiful cozy area with a great view. The person in charge dropped off the wedding cake so we stored it in the beer fridge that is staff only.

I’m doing my job when all of a sudden I see a bunch of unsupervised 5-6 year olds eating cake. I first thought to myself, “Where did this people get cake? Are we having a birthday party I don’t know about.”

Then it dawned on me. They went into the employees only area and raided the beer fridge for the wedding cake. When I confronted the mother of these kids and informed her of the situation, she rolled her eyes and said, “Well, when one kid gets cake, they all get cake.”

She didn’t care at all that the cake for the wedding party was destroyed and that the wedding was not taking place tomorrow….but tonight.

Some people really should not have kids.

Damn, OP, that's one I haven't heard.

R1 Yes, I read stuff like that all the time on Reddit and can’t believe it’s not made up fan fiction. But this actually happened and I’m just shocked at the nonchalance of it all. The mother did offer to pay for it but it’s as if she condoned the behavior.

What happened to her? You didn't just let it ride, did you?

Id be looking for another job because I would take that cake and smash it in her cunt face then smash it in the brats faces.

R3 she paid for the cake but it made me think that she’s using to bailing out her kids versus actually parenting them.

Report it to your boss who can report it to the membership board. A few more incidents like this and she and her kids can be kicked out.

Were you though? were you, OP?

Your job was guarding the cake. Why, OP, why did you fail so sadly in this?

Even if she paid for it, unless it came from a grocery store, there's going to be hell securing an equivalent cake on a Friday with a few hours notice.

Let them …

R9 - I was going to say - who the hell is going to whip up a wedding cake in 24 hours?

Or was the club making the cake? Some clubs have staff that can do that.

It was not a cake from the country club or store bought but some artsy fartsy private bakery.

Those children are now working the fields where once illegal immigrants worked.

And now you know ... the rest of the story.

Ban her and her hell spawn from the country club and take the bitch to small claims court for the cost of the cake plus mental anguish of replacing said cake on a Friday. She and her brats need to learn that poor actions have consequences. It's the only way some people learn.

OP, your storytelling skills are as good as that woman’s parenting skills.

I can't eat my wedding cake.

It's brokened.

I never wanted one OP but thanks anyway.

I apologize for my run on sentences.

by Anonymousreply 18May 17, 2025 2:23 AM

I question whether this ever happened. How did the kids find the cake, get a knife to cut it, the plates to put it on, and the forks to eat it? There is no country club that allows children to wander unsupervised into the kitchen, let alone opening pantries or fridges.

A floury story, OP. Your cake story has collapsed.

Tell the bride someone left the cake out in the rain.

r19 The jackass mom served it to the kids.

by Anonymousreply 21May 17, 2025 2:42 AM

This never happened.

by Anonymousreply 22May 17, 2025 4:34 AM

Probably happened in flyoverstan and then the mom ended her rebuttal with “It’s fine!” 🤡

by Anonymousreply 23May 17, 2025 4:46 AM

R21, thanks KittyDyke. You taught me to read more closely.

Still, I don't believe this happened. Members don't wonder into the kitchen, let alone the freezers or fridges of clubs. And what man or woman in his or her right mind would cut a wedding cake...a cake that by its very nature is for a special occasion?

Country clubs are still a thing in 2025?

So? What does that have to do with the story?

by Anonymousreply 26May 17, 2025 5:57 PM

I do believe it. People in those “ clubs” are clueless and certainly don’t care about what’s going on around them. Self entitled brats muck around without anyone caring.

I wouldn’t be surprised if that mom was in on it. Too bad it wasn’t on hidden camera like when Elaine ate Mr. Petermans cake .

In Naperville, mom would have called you the cunt.

by Anonymousreply 28May 17, 2025 7:56 PM

Where in the OP does it say the mother served the kids the cake? They were described as "unsupervised 5-6 year olds."

Exactly, Racist and anti-semitic places.

Next!!

"Esteemed" section of town, mother handed over like a grand for a boutique cake. Nope.

by Anonymousreply 31May 17, 2025 9:32 PM

I believe OP. You'd be shocked at how entitled some country club members are. They believe their membership confers ownership in a way and they do whatever the fuck they want. I hope this gets reported to the board and this woman gets dumped from the club.

by Anonymousreply 32May 17, 2025 9:40 PM

I can believe it happened, too. When I was a kid, I'd probably have explored if I was around other kids or bored and left unsupervised. But snooping would be my limit. No way would I even have touched the cake.

by Anonymousreply 33May 17, 2025 9:46 PM

In addition to getting it reported to the membership board, OP, I hope you or your supervisor let the wedding host know the identity of the member whose kids did this. They will surely make sure she is kicked out or at least destroy her social standing at the club.
