I worked for a year at an Izzy's (pizza buffet) and quickly discovered, that as a whole, people suck. Because of this, I tend to be very sympathetic to asshats picking on poor waitresses, cashiers etc. <BR/><BR/>That being said, this situation was over the top. I get self-conscious if it takes me too long to put away my change before pulling away from a window if there is someone behind me, so the dog people, were clueless and rude- but coffee girl's boss needs to hear about this... bad customner service and... eeew!Ringleaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00432502725369879074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-64597151649423330992008-09-29T02:36:00.000-04:002008-09-29T02:36:00.000-04:00I worked at a starbucks in this neck of the woods-...I worked at a starbucks in this neck of the woods--<BR/>ask the store manager for the district manager's number and make sure you get through---you'll get free drinks for a month--no lie! <BR/>Oh, and the wait time? supposed to be out the door or driving away in 3 minutes--any longer and the drink is free--seriously--in today's economy they WILL take care of the loyal customer. trust me.<BR/><BR/>was my fave job btw-and my own dog came to visit on my last night. <BR/>puppy lattes are pretty fun!Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15601254307978094781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-23906367153644563482008-09-28T09:48:00.001-04:002008-09-28T09:48:00.001-04:00I'd still demand a bully with my latte.

BUT, they give it to me to give to him in the car and then I get my coffee and we are on our way. No more time spent than if he wasn't with me.<BR/><BR/>I think the problem is that the youth of today do not realize what customer service is. She probably didn't think that making you wait was a big deal.

I was holding him in one arm, the diaper bag, purse, and highchair cover in the other. Dylan was squirming and whining, my arm was about to fall off, and the service was beyond slow. I commented loudly, "I know, Dylan, it IS supposed to be FAST food, but it's not". The people behind me all chuckled and then the people behind the counter spit in my food(probably).Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13164420416881517854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-22715260270648178222008-09-26T20:30:00.000-04:002008-09-26T20:30:00.000-04:00That is insane.
