    So I was answering some Linux server questions... and I'm sitting in the board of directors' meeting, and we get interrupted. We have a call from a customer of one of our restaurants. He says it's important. We took the call right then and there in the meeting.

    He says that a couple nights ago he and his wife came in to order some sort of shake and ordered fudge on it. He also mentions that the manager who also served him the shake showed him that there was fudge in it.

    When we asked: ":confused: Did you check the shake yourself?" he answered, "yes." So we asked "What was the problem there?" And the guy said "I saw a bit of fudge."

    We asked "So were you ok with it at that point?" And he answered: "I thought there was fudge there." We then asked "Did you request to have more fudge there, before going home?" and the dude said "No. I left."

    So we asked: "So why did you leave, sir, and then complained? Why not just have the employees or manager add more fudge there? Why wait until you get home?" and the guy says: "Ummmm... I thought there was enough fudge."

    So we asked him "So why are you calling us? Everything is OK now, isn't it?" and he answered: "No. I called the manager and told her she shouldn't have lied to my face."

    So we asked "Did she offer you any more of our delicious shakes or your money back?" and the guy says "Yes. Yes she did."

    So we all looked at each other and asked again: "Again, what is the purpose of this call, sir? Would you like to have free shakes for life, more fudge, or what?" and he answers "No, I just want your employees to stop lying. Also I want a cool mealeon dollars for my pain and suffering."

    "But," we asked "why would you want mealons when you checked the fudge at the store and you said it was OK?"

    The customer started to breathe hard... and then hung up. :eek: True story. I need to get back to my office.

    Lol, this is awesome. She told me there was just a little fudge and it was on the very bottom and that's why I couldn't see it.

    Should have told him to reboot.
    Let him know that Linux is the next big thing and that MicroSoftShakes will be phased out in the next quarter.
    Once that happens the Fudge to shake ratio will be upgraded and stable.

    Also let him know the manager is in peril because she only knows MicroSoftShake and the Linux upgrade will phase her job out anyway. . . . she wasn't lying to him in as much as the MicroSoftShake Apparratus does not have proper shake checking abilities which is why we are upgrading in the first place. Let him know though we are MacDonalds we are not a Mac shop . . . but we have some delicious Apple pies.

    The moral of the story is to always go to Dairy Queen or Sonic if you want ice cream from a fast food joint.
