But yeah some of these systems asking for tips in places that clearly donât warrant it are soooo tilting. Same with those donations at checkout, which are often a total scam.
last night we went to a new place that just opened, itâs a local-ish chain, their other locations are full service but this one is self-service and on top of that theyâre in this mixed-use development that has way too little parking for the number of tennants they have, will definitely not be coming back
wtf havenât flown in awhile and had like 10 minutes to find/eat food in Lax so first thing I saw picked 3 grab and go sandwiches with cans of water and yogurt and came out to 99 dollars. Still wondering if maybe this was some âfamousâ sandwich or something
Sounds about right. Grab and go sandwiches in casinos are like $15+ these days, drinks are $3+, yogurt/fruit cups are like $7+. So youâre at $25 a person minimum plus tax, so low $80s would be the minimum of expect to pay in an airport.
left a three-star review on google maps pointing out that their decision to make this particular item a self-service product (they do milkshakes and a couple of other items as full-service) creates a ton of unnecessary waiting and the manager replied with some indignant rant about ânot apologizing for being busyâ so I deleted the review, posted another pointing out that they absolutely missed the point, deleted that, and then just left a 1-star review with no comments.
Pretty much the only situation where itâs remotely acceptable is when a certain type of customer tries to weaponize reviews. Those people are an opportunity for a business owner to win business by being funny.
PVNâs review sounds like it had actual constructive criticism. Being anything but gracious there is dumb.
Gonna give a special shout-out to my daughterâs pediatrician here. I can call basically any morning when they wake up sick (like today) and get a day of appointment). I show up 10 minutes early to be polite, and they always have us in a room within 2-3 minutes. Bonus points: He got a negative review on Google by a parent who complained that he told the parent that he wouldnât accept the kid as a patient because the parent wouldnât vaccinate the kid, and he didnât treat kids whose parents are idiots.
