TRP: Sloppy Seconds & Leftovers

Re: TRP: Sloppy Seconds & Leftovers

Around 5:30, we notice that two parties that were seated after us are further along with their dinners. My mother says to us that she bets they never put our order in. The waitress keeps coming by saying "It'll be two minutes." Fifteen minutes later, she said it again. That was when I posted earlier. The waitress came back to apologize that yes indeed, something happened and our dinner order was never placed. Manager came over, lots of apologies all around. I thought the waitrss was going to cry. I felt bad. I don't blame her specifically. Everything that could go wrong, did. It was just such a looooong day and I didn't need it.
The next two hit the nail on the head:
I certainly hope they comped your meal - you guys shouldn't have paid for a damm thing.

And a gift certificate besides.
.
They did not comp but they did discount it.
Poor showing by Olive Garden. They screwed up. I (and the other 3 with me that night) got a free meal one time at Texas Roadhouse because some kid walking by our table tossed his cookies. Texas Roadhouse didn't do anything wrong, but they apologised for the interuption to our meals and comped them. THAT is customer service.
This is what grinds my gears about businesses today. They would rather you pay and suffer than take care of you. They are more willing to lose a customer nowadays knowing that probably 90% of people are going to come back anyway.
I complained to Delta this over Thanksgiving about their gate people in Minneapolis not keeping us well informed when we had to deboard a plane and wait for another one due to mechanical problems. It wasn't that big a deal, I just wanted to tell them they needed to do a better job of informing their passengers of what was going on. I now have $200 off my next ticket :)
Here's one of my pics from the parade.

"Yes, I see that. That's a lot of posts. What do you want, a cookie?"

*Vegeta walks off in a huff*
