We all know that when a deal is advertised, the possibility of it being misinterpreted is great. It is even greater, when the following happens (in order of deal).
The $5 Pizza, Pasta, Salad, Dessert Buffet
Does not include drink. For Dine-in only.
Him: Can I get a to-go drink ($1.99) and a buffet to go ($7.12)?
Me: Okay, that's (too lazy to remember/do math)!
Him: No, It's like 7 bucks.
Me: The buffet to go is like 7 bucks. This week only, the buffet as a dine-in is like... 5 bucks.
Yes, I had some attitude with him. This was after explaining the exact same thing numerous times to his wife, who ordered separately, while he listened.
Her: And seven buffets, all adults.
Me: And drinks with those?
Her: Yes! Please!
Me: Okay, that's (total)!
Her: No....
Me: ....(total)?
Her: Noooooooooooo....
Me: The drinks are not included in the $5 buffet special this week.
Her: NoooooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Me:
Normally, our night/weekend buffet is higher priced, and then Sunday buffet costs even more, but EVERY buffet was $5. This was difficult for some people to understand.
Me: Okay, and your total is (three buffets)! This week only, our buffet is $5 for customer appreciation week, and thank you for coming in to celebrate with us!
Her: What?! The total is always (three at the normal price... she saved about $4)!!!
Me: Well, this week you get an extra % off your buffets! The total is blah.
Her: This is crazy! Where is your manager? I don't want to get hussled!!
Wtf.
Large pizza, $10
Yeah, it's a copy-cat of Pizza Hut and Dominoes, but it's a good one considering the premium everything made from scratch every day every time you order. An important thing to remember, is that the ad in the paper has a $1 and then instead of 0, it's a pepperoni pizza. So.. $10. It's also in your face when you walk in the store.
I won't bother typing out every damn call that ended up like this:
Me: No, the pizza beside the one is supposed to be the zero. It's $10.
PP: The ad is right here in my face. The pizzas are going to be $1 each.
Me: Sir/Ma'am, I am sorry that the ad is so able to be misinterpreted, but it is, in fact, $10. No less.
This is where the caller chooses A....
PP: Well, I know I what I see. I see a large for $1.
... or B.
PP: Oh, I see it now that you're telling me, that's cute!
About 70% of them went A.
Me: Okay, your total is blah, would you still like your order?
PP: No! Not if you're not going to give me the correct price!! This is outrageous!!
Me: Would you rather speak to a manager about the price, or should I just cancel your order?
Almost everyone chose to...
PP: No no no, FUCK IT, just send the damn shit *click*
...but a few chose a manager, who told them that they are stupid, in a roundabout way, and then ended up deciding to take the price. A few more of them went on cussing me, and got a hissing hang-up.
Gross one is below this small quiet area.
Okay.
I was cleaning the bathrooms on Sunday, which we all know is the worst customer day, and when I got to the stall's toilet in the women's room, I opened up the garbage can and looked inside.
Someone shit their drawers.
...and their pants.
...and left them in the trashcan.
...I laughed for a while, and then stopped....
...how did they leave the building without streaking?
