Pet Peeves by Dawn DeBraal

I am perturbed with a particular selling company asking me, “Did the product you ordered meet your expectations?”

I ordered a gasket.

“Please tell us about what you like or don’t like about the product.”

Likes: It’s brown, it fits, it doesn’t leak, easy-open packaging.

“You need ten more words in your review for a minimum of twenty words.”

It’s brown. It fits, it doesn’t leak, easy-open packaging, its round, and it came fast. What I needed.”

“You need one more word for a minimum of a twenty-word review.”

Crap!

I really, really liked this gasket because it came in the mail. I opened it for the express purpose of.

“Thank you. Minimum twenty-word review achieved. Please list any product dislikes.”

Dislikes: Seriously? Why do I have to give you a thorough report on a gasket? It’s a gasket!

“We’re sorry, we need a minimum of twenty words for your review of this product.”

I hate that you are asking me to waste my time giving twenty-word reviews. It’s a gasket!

“Sorry, this review is only seventeen words; a twenty-word minimum is required to leave a review.”

I hate that you are asking me to waste my time giving twenty-word reviews. It’s a gasket!

Go get screwed.

“Thank you for completing your review; we will post your review in three to five days.”
