I think a new hobby of mine is going to be writing complaint letters to businesses. I am so fed up with the ever-declining level of customer service in this country. Look, if you don't want a job, go home and stare at the wall or play on Facebook (which both amount to about the same thing). I wrote a note of complaint to Noodles & Company today. This is a shit restaurant chain with a location in Ballston Commons mall near my gym - the pad thai and potstickers they make are adequate and I was starving today.
I walk in today around 3PM and the place looks like a bomb hit it. About 75% of the tables had dirty plates and cups all over them. I walk up to the counter and nobody was there except for a cook who was trying to ignore me. I ask him if he can help me. He stared at me. I asked him if the store was open. He walked away. Then, a pimple-faced kid ambles behind the counter, talking on a cell phone. Without interrupting his conversation, he snaps at me "What do you want?" What is this, Clerks? I stared at him for about 10 seconds. Against my better judgment, I decided to order (I was really hungry). I'm still disappointed with myself that I did. At some point you have to fight the power. I already stopped going to
The World's Worst Starbucks a while back. I think I'm going to need to add this shithole to my list too.
