England Vs America

customer service, food, People, work

This is from my own personal experience of customer service in the U.S.

I absolutely love America and all things American but omg seriously….

I find the customer service skills here in the U.S absolutely shocking,I’m talking about the workers in fast food, the 7 11’s,circle k and other gas stations,apart from Wawa, Wawa’s good.

There’s no greeting no smile no rush to come over to serve you and just miserable grunts and Huff’s like your bothering them by wanting to be served and them doing the job they’re paid to do,I’m sure there’s a few with good customer service skills but not any I’ve encountered,they’ve all had massive chips on their shoulders

What do you want!!!

In the UK sure there’s people with shitty customer service skills but mainly they’re friendly,they smile have a chat even if they aren’t feeling it they put on a front.

I actually walked away from Wendy’s the other day,I was the only one in the queue and the server saw me never acknowledged me,I waited and waited until I thought sod this and walked out.

Although I have to say the waiter/waitress service is excellent,never had an unfriendly server.

The driving though….wtf is that all about? Cars won’t let you switch lanes even if there’s a red light approaching and there’s knowhere for them to go,they would rather speed up and not let you They drive up your arse and leave no safe distance between you,any gap between cars they want to get in that gap,there never seems to be use of an indicator either,And what is the constant honking for especially in New York,they honk the horn for what seems no reason whatsoever,and L.A omg they drive really aggressive over there.

Hey I’m walking here,I’m walking

My take on Red Lobster cheddar bay biscuits

baking, food, recipes

In may of this year we visited red lobster in Naples Florida,it was our first time and omg the cheddar bay biscuits are amazing.I had heard you could pick up a red lobster cheddar bay mix at Walmart or somewhere similar but I couldn’t find one so now I’m back home I’ve made them myself by searching on Google and Pinterest for recipes so here’s what I use ….

2 cups of plain flour

1 and 1/3 cup of grated mature cheese

1 tablespoon of baking powder

1 teaspoon of garlic powder

2 tablespoons of parsley

3/4 cup of milk

1/2 teaspoon of salt

A bit of pepper

A little pinch of chilli flakes

1 egg

1/3 cup of butter

Preheat oven to 400f

Mix it all together and then get a bit and roll it in a ball shape and flatten down a touch,add a little bit of flour if it’s too gooey to hold,place on a baking tray covered with baking paper.

Cook in the oven for about 15 minutes.

Brush with melted butter.
