its wild to me that there are people out there who can actually complain about getting bad service. like, did you know if your package is late on amazon prime and you contact customer service they’ll give you a free month of Prime and a five dollar credit? ANY time that one of your packages is late? because I sure as fuck didn’t! I never thought to complain! an amazon employee could come in my house and beat me with a hammer and i’d just sit there and be like “its ok, it’s like this sometimes, i understand. the holidays can be stressful. i get it.”
did you know it’s possible to complain about service errors without being angry? you can even be friendly and nice about it!
“hey, so i think i got someone else’s chicken fingers, i ordered the quesadilla. oh, the cook misread the order and has to remake it? ok, i dig, i’ll wait. you’re offering me free breadsticks while i wait? sounds good, thanks!”
DO speak up, DO be specific about the problem, DON’T be blamey or sarcastic or snippy. DO realize it may take time to fix the problem, DON’T turn down extra goods/services they offer to make it up to you.
mistakes happen. businesses have a procedure for fixing mistakes. apology items are part of that procedure; if you turn them down, it doesn’t look like you’re not mad, it looks like you’re too mad to accept their apology but too confrontation-shy to say so. i promise that when you accept the free breadsticks your server heaves a secret sigh of relief.
Girls Scouts encounter Bigfoot the most frequently. Part of their oath is to keep him a secret because he’s very kind and makes up 30% of their revenue due to his fervent love for thin mints.
As a Girl Scout leader, I am telling you that this is NOT true, and any former girl scout that says it is, should think about what they are saying and what oaths they may have sworn in the past
Am I wet? Am I on my period? Did I pee my pants?- next on wtf is going on down there.
I’m so glad this is a universal wondering among vagina-owners, haha.
‘Vagina-owners’
Tune in next time for: Are these menstrual cramps? Am I pregnant? Is it just gas? I wouldn’t have to ask these questions if I didn’t have a damn uterus
Next week: Is it a bladder infection? An ovarian cyst? Do I have endometriosis? Oh God please do not let it be cervical cancer! A 20/20 special
Y’all are forgetting the all-time classic: Is it just my period or is my appendix about to burst? Some nice tea and a heatpack or 911 and emergency surgery?
There is actually a test for that last one!
Place your hand over the pain, press down slightly and release. If the pain doesn’t change by any great margin, you’re fine. If it suddenly becomes some painful you can barely stand, Get thee to an Emergency Room
reblog for the safety of vaginas and their owners
The appendix test works with or without a vagina so reblogging for everyone.
