  • All this for a CAKE?

    I was off today, so I went to my job (aka grocery store) to pick up a cake for my boyfriend for his B-day. While I was trying to decide on what kind of cake I should get him because Wally- World was out. An SC marched up to the Bakery's team to pick up a cake. Once the Bakery brought the cake out, SC started the yelling.

    Me: Dressed like a normal customer,
    CW: bakery co-worker
    SC: B*tch

    SC: THIS ID NOT WHAT I ORDERED.
    CW: What's wrong witht the cake?
    SC: It's supposed to have yellow trim cream around it and it's ugly.
    *I took a peak at the cake and the cake looks very nice and tasty.*

    CW: How is it ugly?
    SC: It's just is. I only got 10 minutes to be at the party with this cake.
    CW: Alright, I can fix it for you right away.
    SC: NO. It's too late. I WANT THE MANAGER.
    CW: Mam, it will only take me 5 minutes to fix it.
    SC: I DON'T HAVE 5 MINUTES. I WANT THE MANAGER. I ordered the cake for 12:00 noon and I came here to pick it up and it's ugly.
    CW: Mam, your cake was scheduled to be picked up by you at 11:00 am. which was over 3 hours ago. It's 2pm now.
    SC: I still want the manager.

    *The SC turned to me and said*

    SC: This is ridiculus. They should have it done right.
    Me: So, why didn't you pick it up at 11am instead and the cake would have been fixed earlier.
    SC:.......
    Me:.......
    SC: Whatever... *SC throws the cake at the counter and leaves saying that she'll get the manager herself and leaves*

    CW: thanks Evil Cashier 411, I thought that she'll never leave. Did you decide on the cake for your bf.
    Me: you're welcome and yes I have decided on the cake.

    People Sometimes just never learn.

        But . . . but . . . she didn't want it. Why let a good cake go to waste?

          That would have been EPIC had you bought the cake because she didn't want it; even better if you had recorded her reaction! She probably was throwing a fit cause she wanted a discount.

            i'm betting she wanted a discount.
            and that she was either late on purpose in order to pull this stunt


            or she was late for other reasons which still are not the fault of the bakers, but she decided to unleash her fury on them because they're punching bags... I mean employees.

              Can not spare time to get the cake fixed.

              Can spare time to talk to a manager.

              I smell a discounter/scammer in operation.

                If an hour after you buy it that she returns and demands her cake, only to be told that she had personally rejected it and since it was now well past the arranged pick-up time it had been sold on discount as surplus.

                    Sadly, this is all too common behavior. Back when I worked as a groc. store cake decorator this sort of thing happened multiple times a day. Of course, the managers always gave in, so a lot of people got free or discounted cake just by being assholes. There was never anything actually wrong with any of the cakes.
                    Don't wanna; not gonna.

                          Reponse to cake

                          I got him a 2 layer chocolate fudge cake with Herseys candy. My BF is a chocolate fan. The cake that the SC had was yellow with green and orange sugar. It also had a unique design to it, but it was ment for different occasion. But still, it looked pretty good.
