I love to read reviews for something I might buy, a hotel I'm considering, a restaurant I may eat at, etc. There's a trend relative to reviews and service I wasn't aware was so common until recently and I want to get a fuck you in for it.....
Had a bad customer experience at a national chain restaurant. That night I still gave the server a 20% tip but told the server what was wrong. The server asked if I wanted to see the manager and I said no...the meal was over and I wouldn't be eating there again. I suggested he tell the manager what I said in the hopes it would improve his tips since not everyone had a daughter, like me, who put herself through college as a server that might be willing to overlook things and still tip that way. I eventually wrote a bad review for the restaurant.
As is customary these days the manager commented on my online review asking that I call him to discuss the issue as this wasn't the usual customer treatment. I called him, told him about my experience and when he suggested I come back to the restaurant, look him up and he would not charge me for the meal ... I said "No thank you". He was so surprised he went silent and then said "Wow....you are not just looking for a free meal". A few weeks later I overhead someone making the same complaints about the same restaurant.
So......Fuck You people who try to game the system for a free meal AND Fuck You service managers who write those fucking gratuitous comments on a customer's review that don't mean dick.
I feel so much better now. If you'll excuse me I have to get ready to go out with my family for dinner
