Jennifer Aydin is getting slammed by fans for age- and job-shaming employees at an airport Jersey Mike‘s Subs.
On Wednesday, the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star posted a video rant of herself and one of her relatives stopping to grab subs from the sandwich chain before heading on vacation.
In the video, Aydin, 47, said she was “so mad” because she and her cousin had stood in line for “what felt like forever.” She went on to complain about how a customer — who had ordered after her — received their food before she did.
“The 80-year-old that was working there, the amount of time she took to cut that bread was almost as much as we were waiting on that line. Geez,” she said in a video obtained by a Bravo fan account on TikTok.
“Everything was slow … we get it. It’s early in the morning, you’re in a bad mood, it’s New Year’s — you’re working. I’d be pissed, too.”
Aydin and her cousin claimed the elderly woman acted like she “couldn’t hear” them.
The Bravo star then explained that she wanted to add on a tuna sub for one of her sons after she had already ordered. She claimed the employees told her she would have to get back in line or ask the guy behind her if it was OK.
However, the man told Aydin that her request was “ridiculous” and refused to allow her to add on to her order, which would have extended his wait time in line.
The reality star claimed the man was a “freakin’ jerk” and she started recording him and the Jersey Mike’s employees during the altercation.
Aydin said the man, who claimed to be a law professor, said he would sue her for her “fake” jewelry if she posted the video of him online.
“Fake diamonds, bitch? What you don’t know — you better ask somebody, Please,” she said in the rant.
Aydin then shared the video she recorded of the employees and the man who was waiting in line behind her.
In the clip, Jennifer told the man that her husband, Bill Aydin, was a “medical doctor” and that all of her jewelry was “real.”
“I am a f–king celebrity, you asshole!” she told another waiting customer.
The Bravolebrity tagged Jersey Mike’s in her posts and Page Six has reached out to the sandwich chain for comment. Hot sandwiches at Jersey Mike’s typically take longer to make than cold subs, though it’s unclear what kind Aydin ordered for herself.
After seeing the video, several fans and critics slammed Jennifer’s behavior online.
“Ewww, just ewww! She thinks she did something here? All she just was just prove how vile she is!! Disgusting!🤮,” commented one user on a Reddit thread.
“Imagine making fun of a poor women [sic] just trying to do her job during the busiest time of the year and to make it worst [sic] age shame her. Unreal,” added another on Instagram.
“What a pretentious entitled Karen – complaining about people literally making minimum-wage during the holidays…. I bet those people at Jersey Mikes work harder in one day than Jen did the entirety of 2024,” wrote a third user.
“Dear God….this is all you have to complain about? 45 people just killed/injured on Bourbon Street… Count your blessings and pick your battles,” urged another netizen.
Other fans blasted Jennifer for saying she was a “celebrity.”
“Only in her mind she’s a celebrity! No wonder her husband stays in the pool house I would to,” wrote one user.
“‘I am a celebrity’ 🤣🤣🤣 Barely,” added another.
Page Six reached out to a rep for Jennifer, who declined to comment.
The mom of five and the rest of the “RHONJ” cast are currently on hiatus as Bravo and Andy Cohen decide whether they will move on with an entirely new cast due to their divisive Season 14.
The most recent cast included Jennifer, Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, Dolores Catania, Margaret Josephs, Rachel Fuda and Danielle Cabral.
Jackie Goldschneider and Jennifer Fessler were also labeled as “friends” of the wives.
