That brunch regular who finally told me the truth about my hollandaise

There's this guy Mark who comes into my station in Portland every Saturday for eggs benedict. Last week he pulled me aside after service and said my sauce has been breaking for 6 months and he'd been eating it anyway because he felt bad. He even showed me a video on his phone of how the emulsion was wrong. Has anyone else had a customer give better feedback than your sous chef?

Honestly, at least Mark gave you a video tutorial instead of just passive aggressively leaving a bad Yelp review.

showed me a video on his phone of how the emulsion was wrong" - wow, that's real dedication. I had a guy at our diner who brought in his own thermometer to show me why my eggs were over-hard. Once I got over the sting I actually learned a lot from it.
