I know there is a drought in Australia. I know that inflation is high. I know that interest rates are high. All the more reason to supply your customer with that which they are expecting.
The boy joined me at work today and we decided to have some Subway on the way home. Pulled in to the nearest one to our house and ordered a couple of footlongs. I noticed that there was very little topping on the bread. Closer inspection revealed that all of the breads had bugger all topping. An Italian herbs and cheese is supposed to be smothered in herbs and cheese. The one the shop assistant was going to give me had four or five thins strips of cheese on top. I informed the assistant that this is not the way to treat your customers. If I buy something I expect what I'm buying to be the same as what is advertised.
In my opinion the shop owner was skimping on product as his costs have risen but it amounts to ripping off his (once were) customers. I won't be heading back to that shop. We walked out and went home to make toasties.

Subway - Eat Fresh
Hang your head in shame, collectively that is, Subway. I visited the Subiaco store today after working longer than usual and had to do the fruit and vege shopping before coming home. While I was waiting to order I noticed a lot of midges hanging around the bread. You know, the insects that appear out of nowhere when you leave food scraps around for a couple of days. This was rather shocking.
I asked the girl serving me, "Did you see the insects on the bread?"
She replied, "I'm not so sure about that. They just fly away."
Dumbfounded is a good way of describing how I felt. With a good mind to just walk out of the store whilst my sandwich was being made I decided that as mine was going to be toasted that would get rid of the blighters anyway.
The fact that the shop assistant, or sandwich expert if you wish to call them that, couldn't have cared less made me feel incredulous. I'd loved to have been a health inspector right then and there. Did I mention previously that every time I went to Subway they had new people. Obviously we are down to the dregs of the workforce, the people that just couldn't give a bugger.
Subway. Eat Fresh? Eat elsewhere, I think, if you want fresh.
