Red Lobster - My order and customer service

On jan. 11, 2019 my son placed an order for 2 cheddar biscuits -12...1 order of stuffed mushrooms and lobster mac n cheese.
First of all red lobster is located in wauwatosa wisconsin and I live in glendale wisconsin which is about a 30 min drive.
My son picked it up and the order was all wrong., he didn't think he had to check. We go the biscuits but the lobster mac n cheese was $25.00 and it was about a cup of that. Who pays that money for cup of eve lobster macaroni.
Instead of the stuffed mushrooms we were given lobster chips and dip and a salad.
Meanwhile before writing this I was on the phone wanting to speak to a manager waiting 15min before I hung up and called back again.
So I call back and the young lady said she had to the manager I was on the phone no one ever can she said they were busy so I told her I understand that but i'm a paying customer and wanted to speak to a manager and if no ones going to come to the could she please come back and let me know. Well i'm still on the phone and it's been 33 min and no one has yet to come to the phone and my son comes in the room said ma just hang up the phone yet i'm still holding on. Now it's 35 min still no answer. I don't know who's the manager at this time but this very very unprofessional to the fullest extent. Busy ok but my call would have jut taken a few moment. 40 min till holding on no one answered yet. I would like to be contacted regarding this matter my nam is delorise martin I can be reached at414-758-8480. Thank you and still holding 50 min later I don't think their going to ever answer the phone. Sad sad sad... Is this what customer service is like, i've never experienced this before... I'm sick. I'm looking forward to speaking to some one regarding this issue... To you have a good weekend

I would also like to add that I was so angry at them and my so for not checking the order that I told my son that he was useless and that he should just kill himself and that would make my life easier. Now he is so hurt that he won't speak to me.

Whoever wrote this complaint is a massive racist. They think everyone at the restaurant is cr@p (except for themselves, of course). Truth be told, this person is a waste of space and an oxygen thief. They don't deserve a job!

Apparently, you are the one with the racist attitude. Nothing but 'White' this and 'Black' that. What is wrong with being bi-racial or being married to someone of another race? Perhaps, your own racism is the reason for your general dissatisfaction with your experience with Red Lobster. I recommend seeing a shrink. You need it.

I worked with many of these people he’s referencing. All totally cool, and I worked there long enough to know the [censored]bags from the good people. The only one he was right about was Brian. I’m guessing he was any one of the many guys that walked in there thinking they didn’t have to go through the [censored] before getting the respect. I probably know him.

Theoretically, the longer you work at an establishment the better you should be treated (if you're a good worker) unfortunately when management is dishonest or unfair things may actually get worse!

Always be aware of the signs that they are trying to make you want to quit and then bide your time for management to screw up and then file for unemployment.

Ordered broiled Flounder, Sent back 3 times as was not cooked. Cearser salads, served warm, if there was a teaspoon of dressing I would be surprised. Very small in size. Rolls not cooked, raw dough middle of biscuits. Restaurant to cold. Never will I eat in another Red Lobster. Quality re food/service has steadily declined.

I don't think he was writing about pricing but about the quality. While sending flounder back 3 times seems a bit extreme and could have asked for more dressing for the salad while he had the wait staff running all over, you should have asked for a manager

Red Lobster somewhere in New Jersey has the same type of managers.
My boyfriend worked their for over 13 years now. Reduced his hours and gave him more work then anyone can do in the time he is allowed. Now reduced by two days now.

They want a server to be paid for doing cleaning, A.C. and utility. For under $3.00 an hour?
My boyfriend is close to making around $8.00 a hour, but still not there after 13 years.

He keeps hearing that we are "THE BEST" Red Lobster in the area from district managers. And the managers' get the bonuses and the people that slave and work for almost no pay and have to work their you know whats off to make a living in NJ.

Now Red Lobster is now stating No cameras due to some bad things that were posted on a public forum. with pictures of a few managers. The person was fired after the manager found out about it. The person sued Red Lobster. Closed case. I believe that Red Lobster Won that case due to the clause "at-will" employment. Fire you on the spot for any thing that they want to or for no reason at all. Just to get someone else to do your job cheaper.

My boyfriend states that a few of the managers are not too bad. Mostly the G.M's are the ones you have to watch out for.

I do not work at Red Lobster and I am great full that I do not work there.

From reading this, I would say your attitude is likely the cause for your problems. You will continue to have problems in life as well due to the very same attitude. If you have a legitimate grievance, explain yourself. Swearing and cursing and repeating "full of ###" actually tells us nothing as to your reason for being unhappy. My guess is that, if you were smart and capable of expressing yourself properly, you would have been able to communicate with the manager and he/she would have taken you seriously. If not, you could have gone up the ladder so to speak and voiced your concerns to their boss. Stop being ghetto. Educate yourself and raise yourself up to the next level. Look inward for the source of your unhappiness and stop blaming others. Only then will you find true happiness, make money and have a life outside the local penitentiary...

13 years is a long time to carry this around with you.
Put it aside and move on. Good luck.
