We tried

We had today all mapped out...

Church in the morning. Back home for lunch and various tasks (playing for the kids, house stuff for Mark and I). Band concert at 3pm, after which (about 5pm) we would go to Sams to pick up a few things and eat dinner. Then home and bed for the kids.

Wouldn't you know? The band concert lasted until 5:30. Sams closes at 6pm so when we got there at 5:45 there was only one slice of pizza left and the woman would not put a whole one in the oven for us (we wanted to just buy the whole pizza). So we left, hit Little Caesars on the way home, ate pizza, and then put the kids to bed.

It all worked out but it was a little crazier than we would have liked. However, the band concert was GREAT and the kids loved it!

Can't really blame her can you? She probably had her own kids or family or her next job or school work to get to. (I work retail..and I feel sympathy for her)

Anon--There is alot to say for GOOD customer service these days and a lot of choices for where we spend our money. Obviously, you work for someone else and don't own your own business, or you might feel differently if you were losing a sale and possibly a customer. After all, they were there during business hours.

Actually, we weren't frustrated that we couldn't get pizza. It was more her attitude and response. She wouldn't say we couldn't have pizza, she just kept saying "Well, we close in 10 minutes" which led us to believe that she could and should have served us but she didn't really want to. Regardless, the outcome was the same. We didn't file any complaints, we didn't complain to her, and really I wouldn't consider what I said on the blog to be a complaint, just a statement of what happened--she wouldn't put a pizza in the oven and we left. It really wasn't as exciting as you seem to think it might have been, Anon. :)
