Guess what was in my inbox today? Why an email from Wendy’s Canada! Let’s read shall we:
Thank you for taking the time to send us your comments. As a valued Wendy’s® customer your concerns and observations are very important to us.
Wendy’s® strives to give total customer satisfaction through quality products, speed of service, and order accuracy in a clean and friendly restaurant
We were sorry to learn that you had not received your validation code email. Please try looking in your computer’s bulk or trash sometimes if the computer has a filter for junk mail it can go there. Failing that please send us your full name and address and we will be happy to send you a Single Hamburger Coupon.
Sincerely,
Wendy’s Restaurants of Canada
Do they think I’m a fucking moron? I know how to check my junk mail you know. I’ve already responded to the email with my full name and address. I anticipate my free burger coupon will be arriving about two months from now, so if it comes earlier than that I will be quite surprised. Naturally I will express my surprise through rage and profanity, but that should be expected at this point. The clock is ticking Wendy’s, prove me wrong!
I love that the email is from Wendy’s Restaurants of Canada. How demoralizing must it be to not only have to deal with emails like this all the time and then not even be able to sign a name and position to the correspondence?
Also, what does a clean and friendly restaurant have to do with your coupon anyway? This polite letter makes me hate Wendy’s.
Well actually, the person who wrote me DID sign their name. However, I decided to spare them the humiliation of having their name on my blog, which is literally read by dozens of people. Not to mention if you search “gastronome” into google this blog shows up on the THIRD page, which is pretty awesome when you think about it.
how many people would search the word “gastronome” on goolge and how many of them would actually make it to the third page?
Um, lot’s of people. You’re just jealous because if someone types in jerkface your name wouldn’t come up until the FOURTH page.
i kind of view that as a good thing.
