Being Kind Can Give You Wings
I took my little brother out to a chain chicken wing restaurant for his birthday. I ordered a ten-piece wing platter. When I got it and started eating, I noticed I only had eight wings. Now, I don’t typically complain about food, but I wanted what I paid for. I waved the server over.
Me: “I’m not trying to be difficult, but I ordered a ten-piece platter and only got eight wings. I’d like to either change my order to an eight-piece or get two more wings, please.”
Server: “I don’t know how to change the order, but I’ll get you more wings.”
She goes to the kitchen and comes back about fifteen minutes later with another ten wings!
Me: “Why did you bring me ten more?!”
Server: “They’re on the house because you handled our mistake so calmly!”
It just shows that not being a jerk can get you a long way in life.
