Eight hundred do you wy Away. Maybe you've been in
this situation where you have a small customer service issue

it really worth me complaining about this?
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Oh? Yeah, question?
Speaker 2 (00:28):
And that was the case for a guy who bought
a birthday cake for seven dollars and ninety nine cents.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
That's a deal.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
They ended up giving him the wrong one, and you
didn't realize until he brought it out for his son's
fifth birthday the store. He discussed it with his wife
and he decided, yep, I'm gonna email the bakery about it.
What did his wife do? She emailed us. We could
get him in your phone tap right.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Now twenty Hello, Hi, I'm calling from his customer service?
Speaker 4 (01:04):

Speaker 5 (01:06):
Yes? This is Ryan.
Speaker 4 (01:07):
Hi, Ryan, I.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Was notified that you left a complaint after visiting our
bakery department. Yeah, can you tell me what happened.
Speaker 5 (01:17):
Uh. Yeah, I came in to get a cake for
my five year old's birthday party.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
Isn't that fun? Don't they grew up so fast? Oh?
I bet it felt like just last week he was
only four?
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Yeah he was or just a week ago?
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Crazy?
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Sorry, go on, go on. What happened?
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (01:39):
So I asked for the cake he wanted, which was
the Oreo cake, and I didn't check before I left,
and when we got home it was just a regular
chocolate cake.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
Yeah, I mean it was fine. I mean I have
to tell you to stop.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
I'm so sorry to interrupt you, Ryan. I just need
to know, is this inn a fish complaint? Then that
you got the wrong type of chocolate cake for let's
see here, seven dollars ninety nine cents.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
Yeah, but I don't think the price of the cake
has anything to do with right, right.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
I'm just confirming. I'm just confirming, right.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Yeah, that this is an official complaint you're filing.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Yeah, it's an official complaint. It kind of was a
big deal for a five year old.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Great and three two one, Sir, we are so so
deeply sorry that your poor child was forced to eat
a cake. It wasn't quite the right flavor of chocolate.
What is especially for seven dollars in ninety nine cents?
I bet for that price you thought you deserved the world?
Speaker 5 (02:49):
Oh my god? What was that?
Speaker 4 (02:51):
That was our official apology?
Speaker 5 (02:54):
So so what your official apology comes with? Violin music? Sarcastic?
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Well, this may come across as surprising, but we get
a lot of complaints here.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Oh yeah, yeah, sure, management.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Wanted us to come across as more compassionate and understanding that.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
Yeah, that's the music.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
You're right, that's the compassion. That seems to be like
the opposite of compassion. It almost felt like you were
making fun of me.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Oh, I don't know where in the world you would
get that from.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
Right there in your voice sounded like you were talking
to a child.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Did I just hear? Is that another complaint? Is that?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
What?
Speaker 5 (03:34):
That is a suggestion?
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Agree to one?
Speaker 5 (03:39):
Oh god?
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Because you know we would feel awful We said came
across as sarcastic or insincere.

Did that make you feel better?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
No?
Speaker 5 (04:04):
Yeah, it made me feel angry. Interesting, Yeah, this is
kind of bizarre that you couldn't get a cake right
for a kid's birthday party.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
Still stuck on that, and.
Speaker 5 (04:15):
Someone made a little complaint, and now you're you're being

talking down to me. You're making me feel like I'm
in the wrong here. I demand a repond.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
This is troubling.

Type of cake could get.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
Oh the language.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Then you complained to again that I came across insensitive.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
Listen to yourself.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
And now you're demanding a refund on a purchase that
costs less than a coffee at Starbucks.

you fired. At the point, who are you what's your name?
