After being away for work for six days, I came home to find my granddaughter staying over at our house for a couple of days. 
On the second day I asked what she wanted for dinnerā¦. āPIZZAā


Alright, I go online and order a pizza, from a long standing Pizza store, at 5:42pm.
At 6:30 no pizza, so I go to the tracker on the appā¦. zip. Hmm
Granddaughter getting tired.
At 7:00pm I call the store, six times with no answer. By this stage granddaughter has had a toasted sandwich and is in bed asleep.
So I send a cranky email.
At 7:30, I get a phone call from the store manager. Apologising (well not really an apology) for the delay, stating IT issues. And as a show of good faith was offered a store credit of the order value, the next time I purchase.
This is when I decided to talk ā¦ā¦ I have three questions:
What the fuck makes you think Iād buy from you, every again, to use a store credit?
I tried phoning six fucking times, why did no one answer?
WHERE THE FUCK IS MY FUCKEN PIZZA?
Thatās when I got the aggressive language speal, which sounded like he read it off a sheet of paper, pinned to the wall beside the phone
And that it would be delivered within 8 minutes.
At 7:45 the doorbell rings. Delivery guy from the store hands me our pizza, without saying a single word (yet out of habit, I thanked him)
2:03 hours later, I have a pizza, which I wouldnāt have bought in the first place, if not for my sleeping granddaughter.
Now, Iām not going to go into the fact that the store manager would have been more akin to managing a Curry house, rather than a pizza joint, because thatās not very PC, these daysā¦.
I struggle to understand what happened to customer service?
In stores, no matter what they are, I find myself saying thank you, often without a response from the cashier. Yet I purchased something from them, they should be thanking me for my custom.
Iāve stopped using FB because they keep deleting posts I make with a message that Iām inciting hate, etc. Yet all I did in one one instance was, say, after watching reel of a thief breaking into cars āThey should cut his hands off when caughtā and that is considered inciting hate. SOFT COCKS!
Grrrrrrr, maybe Iām just Old and Pittuded, but sometimes I wish I could go back to an earlier time (Oh, I could buy a few new Laverdas with certificates and a trendy Safari suit)
