hello
just 2 days ago, i encountered an incident at Swenson's Tampines Mall Branch which kinda made us pissed with the service. It would be forgivable if crowded. But there was so little customers i could count them all in one hand,
i was downright explicit with my request, but they just couldnt get it
here's what happened..
Mum: Lets order the free ice cream we're entitle to by Great Eastern
Me and Sis: okayys (:
After awhile...
Me: I'm drinking my water real fast man..thirsty waiting for ice cream
After awhile more..the ice cream arrives
The waitress lights up our ice cream as it is the Firehouse Ice Cream, and it involves lighting a candle in the middle of the ice cream. Me, my mum and my sis saw that the candle was placed wrongly, but we wanted to see if the waitress was observant enough. The waitress started trying to use the lighter to light up the plastic part of the candle, which is also the base of the candle, the part that should go into the ice cream. And the part that should be lighted, which is the wick, was inside the ice cream.
For almost 10 seconds, the waitress was doing that until the plastic glowed bright orange. That's when we couldnt take it, and we told her this
Mum: Excuse me, what you doing? thats the bottom of the candle you lighting
Waitress: Oh..I'm so sorry, I'll get another candle for you
Mum: Its okay, we don't need one
Waitress: Oh okay, I'm sorry
Thoughts: Okay. At least she apologised. The next incident is going to make me vomit blood.
Me: There's literally no more water and my cup is already at the edge of the table..hmm..but this waiter seems to keep staring at my cup, and walk to the refil station, and walk off without refilling..something's wrong with him..let me try one more time
The waiter does the same thing, ignore. Werent they supposed to be iniative? Nevermind..let me do the ultimate. I turned my glass over with the bottom on the top now. This should let him know I'm out of water. Well, so I thought. The waiter did the smae thing agian. This time, he stared harder. Nice, I even caught hold off his name. If I was nasty, I would have written his name in the feedback form. yea.
Finally they realised that it was out of water after almost 20 minuteds of ignoring. And I felt like ignoring them by leaving my cup faced down. I wondered if they would still pour the water even if the cup was face down. Doubt they would notice it anyway
We couldnt take it anymore, so we wrote the incident in a feedback form. And the two of them, waiter and waitress, kept pacing in front of us now to see what we were writing. I guess they finally woke up =X
I guess service is indeed important in any service sectors. And with Singapore pushing to be the best in everything, and with events such as YOG coming up, I guess these are the things we still need to work on. Talk about service.
On to something more happy
