He speaks to the hot shot manager and takes a firm stance. The manager starts giving excuses as to why it happened and tried to play it off like it was no big deal. My uncle used no profanity, but made the point very clear that that was piss poor service to be ashamed of. He demanded his portion to be free, and he got it. A $30 rib slab along with drinks.
Anyways, I think a good manager in a decent restaurant should have offered to comp all or at least part of his meal. |

At least your uncle waited for the manager to respond (poorly so, I agree that that situation is unacceptable in a restaurant) before demanding a free meal.
Anyways, I think a good manager in a decent restaurant should have offered to comp all or at least part of his meal. Here's the problem with the analogy. They're situation was face to face, so feedback is exchanged quickly. I have to wait for these lazy ****s to check their email, read my email, then wait to see what their plan of action is. If it takes two days to get a response, I don't want to hold a multiple week conversation about this. I want this fixed, yesterday. Call me impatient. I am. Oh, and this lolprogram can't even handle my rap genre in one run. This is embarrassing. I feel like childlike understanding of programming can understand the different loads that come from mass quantities. I don't even know if I'm calling the bleep blorps what they are, but this guy obviously slept through his community college classes. (Not hating on anyone at CC. Took a semester there to knock geneds on the cheap.) |

Yes, that's usually how these things go. C'est la vie.
Regardless, its 60 outside and I'm riding. Peace. |

RHC training.
Are you doing the NACCC this year? |
Wrecked for the first time in months and put my first dent in my top tube. Probably karma kicking my ass for all the negativing energy I've been spewing.
