Dear Owner,
I heard your establishment specializes in Irish music. I traveled a distance for the music and hoped to meet other Irish folks. What I heard were patriotic and beer-drinking country songs and, finally, TWO Irish songs. I was disgusted.
I tried to find out your name and was told, Mac. Do you not have a first and last name? And the name of your establishment, "No Thanks Needed." Do you not expect your patrons to say thank you? Maybe I shouldn't have left a tip either.
My meal was good, but I won't be returning.
Disheartened Lady
A Letter of Complaint - Part 2
Mac read the complaint letter and shook his head. He scribbled his response to purge the angry feelings that were boiling.
Lady,
Do you have a name? How about an address? Are you real?
Did you not see the large informative poster behind the bar?
Have you ever met a veteran before? Maybe you should search for someone with a military branch hat on and ask them what they did for our country.
Most people don't know my first name because I don't like it, so none of my employees would dare share it.
Get a life. Elsewhere!
Mac
