How about the last bad customer service? - Today. I thought I was responding to a job ad but instead there is a company called Gigats that post fake ads and you get to talk to a rude salesperson who makes you feel like a loser and tries to sell you on taking out a student loan to go to one of their schools. Tons of complaints about them on the internet. Amazing they are allowed to do this.

Tell us about your last “good” customer service. On my mom's birthday almost 2 months ago, the family and I went to a new Applebee's restaurant near my house. The service and food were above and beyond.
How about the last bad customer service? When I went to try a new barber shop last weekend. They weren't even busy but I was ignored for a long while so I got up and walked out. They had almost 30 Yelp reviews that were either 4 or 5 stars, which made me want to try them. I wrote my own review and gave them 1 star based on my past experience with them.
Today Is:
Pit Bull Awareness Day My sister has one and he's the sweetest dog. They're just so misunderstood. Here's a picture of him wanting to play fetch.
Have a great weekend. Happy Saturday!
