Another letter

Dear Maggie Moo's on 10th St NW,

I was all excited for your free scoop giveaway yesterday, and I walked the three blocks to your location from my office building in the rain without an umbrella, eager to sample your goods. How great was my disappointment when I saw the sign posted on your door saying that your staff was in training, and so you would not be participating in the promotion? Not too great, actually, as I've never tried your ice cream. My anger, though, was at a high level. I was all in the mood for ice cream, so I went around the corner to Gifford's. You can bet I'll never visit you guys in the future, since you don't even care enough about wooing customers to postpone training for another day. Seriously, are you doing that well in this recession that you can afford to say, "Screw it, we don't need to win over new customers! Let them keep going to Ben and Jerry's or Gifford's!" Because I sort of doubt the attractiveness of premium ice cream in this economy.

Yours,

M Slash
