A Massachusetts car dealership is experiencing the demise of their reputation online after an egregious display of discourtesy toward a pizza delivery guy.
After ordering a pizza, the staff at F&R Auto Sales took a collection to pay for their food. When it arrived, Jarrid the delivery guy told them it would be $42 and the boss handed him the money he’d collected — two twenties and two fives.
Because the cash Jarrid was given included an extra $5-bill over what was owed, he reasonably assumed the extra $7 and change was his tip. He thanked them and was on his way. And that’s when things got weird…
Realizing they hadn’t been given their change, F&R Auto Sales called the pizza place and complained to the manager. Not wanting to create a disturbance or lose a customer over what amounts to spare change, the manager sent the driver back to return the money.
While he was there the staff teamed up on him as if he’d cheated them. By the end they were outright ridiculing and threatening him.
After he left they continued with their tirades.
And then to complete the bizarre episode, they took the footage of the entire encounter from their security camera and uploaded it to YouTube (with the ridiculously inaccurate title “irate pizza driver”) as if we’d all take their side.
The staff at the dealership followed through on their threat to call and complain, hoping to get the driver to lose his job. But fortunately (and not surprisingly), the manager at the pizza place took the driver’s side, noting that they were used to having trouble with F&R Auto Sales. Apparently, they’re bad customers. Surprise, surprise.
And not only did the manager take the driver’s side, the internet is, too.
A Go Fund Me page set up by a stranger is collecting “tips” for Jarrid and has already raised nearly $5,000.
And now, as all this goes viral, F&R Auto Sales is discovering what colossal idiots they were…
They are sitting with their measly 7 dollars watching as their ranking on Yelp, Google, and elsewhere online sinks irrevocably into the 1-star abyss…
