Are we talking 'brave' on the initial date this thread was started...or can we post something brave that happened today...or for me yesterday now....
Uggh...confusion.
But, I technically 'stole' from my Chinese restaurant last night. But I believe they have been 'stealing' from me the last few times I've been there, plus the rude service is 'stealing' my custom ie; once I've put in an order I agree to pay, but you agree to not be rude and be glad I buy stuff from you.
Sooo....I go to pick my order up last night. I ask to check my crab before I purchase, because the last few times it has been really inconsistent ie; no noodles / half what a normal serve is / 2 scummy bits of chilli and no garlic etc etc.
Anyway, I check...noodles look like a scummy serve and I ask nicely for a discount and explain the quality has been inconsistent for quite a few weeks now. Person says that is not possible...after a rude discussion from that person, whilst I am being polite I then request perhaps they get the manager.
The manager was 100 times ruder!!!! I then said right, I won't take this, PLUS I want my money back from the last 3 times I have been here. He said that was not possible, they never refund (wtf) - I said well your waiters are always rude, you are lucky to have customers at all. For some reason he said he would be back in a minute. Somebody from the restaurant who was serving another customer had a question or something.
Well, this shows you how inattentive they are. Under the nose of the cashier, I thought 'fuck this', picked my order up and left without paying. I kind of feel bad, but seriously, if the cashier is so oblivious to what is happening and the care factor is zero, plus they are lucky I didn't ask for my money back the last 3 times at least.
Why is their stealing from me and giving me shit, inconsistent servings any different from me taking that order without paying?
