I joined a fundraising dinner today, and it was quite an interesting one because I sat with the children of the board members. It was a fun time because I really enjoy hanging out with kids, and they’re my level. There’s a part of me that is literally still 5 years old, and that’s also the same part that says really smarty pants things. I am doubly sure of that persona today.
But I got really ticked off at the last part, because the venue really forced us to write a review for them. The food was mediocre at best, and while one of the guys was attentive enough to me, the rest were also ignorant. It was quite a sad show of service, coupled with forced reviews, it was just not a fun experience.
As a service provider, in this day and age to ask for reviews is really quite a bad show. It reflects badly on how one expects to be respected, and honestly, I wouldn’t respect the establishment.
In fact, I think I am quite offended to the point where I would want to write in to explain how a bug was found in the soup and the other staff were not able to even tell us what the meal was.
It was quite a crazy situation actually.
That’s what happens when you force a review.
