As a customer, is it your right to always get what you want?

Here are a few instances:

• I stopped by my favorite Chinese restaurant for some takeout during lunch. I know everyone there personally, as I have gone there for years. I’ve seen them through the ups and downs of managing a restaurant. So when I got there, a lady (who I also happen to know), came to the register to pay for her meal. She wanted to have the veggie egg roll removed from her bill because it only had cabbage – and didn’t have any peas or carrots. I was embarrassed both for her and the owner, and looked at a spot on a wall to avoid being brought in for opinion… but I was anyway. The egg roll had been 75% eaten.

• I had an ex-boyfriend who used to take things back to the store….all the time. He’d actually purchase things before thinking about it or making sure it was he wanted, and return them after opening. Not only this, but he would buy things and return them when he needed money.

• Some people buy dresses or suits and return them the day after.

• As a server, you experience many people who demand so many changes to the recipe that it loses the chef’s touch… perhaps they should have stayed at home and cooked it themselves.
