SHORT “I didn’t like my free food, can I have more?”
This just happened to me today and I’m pretty sure it counts as a CB.
Every morning my son and I take a walk to some shops nearby our house, this morning we decided to stop in one for breakfast. This lady and her teenage daughter in front of us kept having an issue with the mom’s card declining and it wasn’t expensive so I asked if I could pay for her. It wasn’t a lot, somewhere around 50 bucks, and I just wanted to eat and get my son home. She graciously accepted but shortly after my son and I sat down with our food. While I was FaceTiming my friend, daughter comes up to me and says she didn’t like what she chose and wanted me to get her something else. She didn’t ask- she demanded. Are you joking? She was not. I laughed a little because it was ridiculous and the lady got upset demanding I just get her daughter a new meal because she didn’t know what she was getting and it wasn’t fair. The workers intervened and helped my son and I leave before things got out of hand.
My friend said I should’ve just helped them out and told them to get something else since I eat there frequently and I should’ve known that what she got wasn’t really that good.
