Customer's Holiday Got Ruined

[Dark Psion]

You should have told her "Wait here!" and ran to the nearest KFC and brought her back a Bucket-o-Chicken.

Going to KFC and back would've taken too long. The closest one is a few blocks away from one of our other stores.

One of these days I'd just LOVE to throw something like this back in an SC's face by demanding to know "how, EXACTLY, is this OUR fault? We only sell this stuff, we don't make it."

I mean, come on, it's not the store's fault if you don't like something. If you don't like it don't buy it. If you're trying something new, dont' come crying to us when it doesn't work out. Learn the lesson and move on.

exactly.

and the guilt trip she's laying on people. like anyone at the store gives a damn about her holiday.

One bad dish ruined her WHOLE HOLIDAY? Um.....get over it?

By contrast, my friends and I had our Thanksgiving meal yesterday (Monday). Why? Because myself, MT and JP worked Thanksgiving, and DR went home to California to visit her mom for the holiday. So yesterday was our Thanksgiving. And I cooked. And the whiskey honey ham was great. The tropical island cranberry sauce was awesome. (MT, who says he hates cranberry sauce, said "Jester, you have redefined cranberry sauce for me." I was proudly embarrassed by the compliment.) The sourdough stuffing was absolutely brillant. The garlic redskinned mashed potatos were....um, did I mention how good the ham was? See, what happened was, somehow Jester botched the potatos and they were, to be kind, rather soupy. Gloppy even. And JP thought they had too much garlic. (The rest of us think JP is nuts.) But, did the not-so-hot potatos ruin our Four Days Later Thanksgiving? No. You know why? Because we still had good food, good drinks, football to watch, booze to drink, games to play, and good friends to partake all of this with. We had fun, made fun of the potatos (and the chef who made them) and enjoyed the holiday for what it is supposed to be about....

Being Thankful For What You Have.

We had BBQ for Thanksgiving.

Gatekeeper is coming to visit this weekend, and that's when we're going to have Thanksgiving dinner.

Jenni, the who's waiting for Cranberry sauce!
