You're Welcome

 
Not actual Michelina's brand pizza roll snacks
Having just put my Michelina's Lean Gourmet pizza roll snacks in the microwave at work, I stepped around the corner to use the restroom. When I came back, my pizza rolls were on top of the microwave.

A girl there said, "Oh, was this yours?" She had aborted my pizza roll cooking so she could put her popcorn in there. "Did it have time to finish?" I guess not, since I was only in the bathroom a minute. She asked me how long I had set the timer for, and I turned around to wash out my cup at the sink, thinking she was going to politely put them back in there for the three minutes I had set them for before she took it upon herself to delay my lunch.

Instead I turned around, and they were still on top of the microwave and she was finishing up her popcorn, which was starting to smell burned.

Astonishingly, some of our customers seem to think that people who work in customer service are complete idiots.

I was going to let this post go as just another "Art-ism," but then I noticed that you actually linked to the pizza roll company website, an attention to detail few other bloggers show.

So, as a loyal reader, I clicked on the link...and read something very disturbing.....stick with me here.

The web site plainly says "9 count," but the nutritional information sticker shows the package contains 2 servings, with a serving being 6 rolls. WTF?? I was never good with math, but I think you have a class action suit in the making...they have been jacking you out of 3 rolls everytime you buy them!

I am not sure who this Michelina woman is, but her slogan needs to change from "Let Mama feed you" to "Mama just jerked you."

In all fairness, I am sure she is a credit to her GED.

I think you should contact them immediately and demand at least a case of the damn things. Fair is fair.

The boxes I get have different packaging than what's shown on the site, so I hope there's something different, because I also usually eat two boxes so I can really feel like I've had a lunch! According to the calorie index on the ones I get that would still be just 400 calories. They're very small.

Brian Regan: "You know what the serving size is on Fig Newtons? Two Fig Newtons! Have you ever heard of anyone just eating two Fig Newtons?...You know what my serving size is? Two sleeves!"

Sometimes, if people leave their food unattended, I'll slap an extra three to five minutes on their time. By that time, their Lean Cuisines pretty much become concrete.

Typical mean-spirited Republican (okay, "Libertarian") attitude, Willoughby! My pizza rolls were due to be finished right around the time I dried my hands in the men's room. I believe this young lady was merely jealous of my personal achievement in arriving in the break room ahead of her. Total class warfare.
