Cause let me tell you, there is a karmic payback. There we were enjoying our food. We had ordered from Oggis, a local pizzeria/brewery/sports bar. We had the grilled shrimp salads, which are always tasty, an order of Oggi sticks, which are just glamorous cheesy breadsticks, and a pizza. It was the Grand Slam or something. All very common, right? What we usually get… the not-bad-but-eh pizza. Only this time the pizza had a surprise topping. Staples?
Yep. Richard bit into a STAPLE. A staple just like you’d use at the office to attach one paper to another, like when you are out of post-its. So we argued about it, cause he was like, no big deal or whatever… But hello? A staple?! That shit is pointy. It could have punctured his esophagus or something. He could be dead! So finally he calls the restaurant and speaks to a manager. I swear it was like he was comforting her! She apparently was not trained for such a call and got all weird and in shock. She just kept offering to remake the pizza. Yeah, cause we want more Staple Supreme please. No offer of a refund or a credit, or an apology. Just more food, in case someone is hungry.
I guess the final outcome for today was that Richard needs to call back in the morning to speak to someone else. Hmm. I can’t wait to hear how that goes. Haven’t people won major lawsuits for way less?
i got a pizza once that had what looked like the little metal reinforcing thingies (name is escaping me right now) they put on the pockets of some jeans. not only did i bite into it, but it was rusty too. i called and they offered another pizza too. they insisted. they guy brought it and i refused and then he told me to keep the one i had. i guess because i also wanted more of the same. i ended up with a free pizza coupon out of the whole deal, which i never used. i never got pizza there again. they were very nonchalant about the whole situation, and i wouldn’t have been so calm if i had broken a tooth. funny part is, they actually asked if it could have fallen off something i was wearing. right, like it would have been rusty…please. i sould have made a bigger stink about the whole thing, but i guess i was too nice. if i ever get anything weird in my food again, you can bet i won’t be so nice.
