So this customer comes through drive and asks for the cranberry orange scone, our store was out for the day so I offer her the cranberry bliss bar or our other scones. She asks me what the cranberry bliss bar is and I explain it to her in my own way — it’s like a small piece of cheesecake with cranberries crumbled on the top and it’s really yummy. She doesn’t seem interested and then goes on to ask if we have those “little cranberry cake things” to which I reply “yes ma’am, the cranberry bliss bar?” She starts to get really loud at this point telling me “NO, it’s like a little mini piece of cake with icing and cranberries on the top and comes in those trays of like eight of them.” I turn my headset off for a second and sigh loudly and then tell her again, “That does sound like the cranberry bliss bar to me ma’am, it comes in the package that’s red and green?” Now we’re both frustrated. “UGH NO THAT’S NOT IT! FORGET IT”

I mean.....am I wrong here lol, is there another item she’s thinking of? 😂

Some customers you just can’t win. They come into the interaction looking to be pissed off.

Oh for sure, I just rarely have interactions where I leave feeling like the crazy one 😂😂

The cranberry bliss bar is a blonde brownie topped with cream cheese frosting and candied cranberries. I think the word cheesecake threw her off.

Probably but I think if I had said brownie she definitely would’ve been thrown off

Some days I think I am on a hidden camera show and the guests are just testing me to see if they can get a rise out of me. LOL This sounds like a situation where no matter what you said she'd end up screaming. Hang in there.

LOL that does sound like something corporate would do honestly, like undercover boss or something. Thank you love! You too 😊
