Don't mess up this woman chicken wings order or she would...

[Svnla]

pull a gun on you.

LOL @ the restaurant name.

However, police say Clarissa Gagum took it out on the restaurant workers. The owner of FU Wangz says she threw the carton of wings onto the floor, then left and came back with a gun. He says Gagum waved the gun around violently, hitting the glass tip jar and cutting her hand

Id have thought Florida but NC is a close second

 

[zerocool84]

Wings are serious business

 

[Grooveriding]

Fu wangz!

Heh... article doesn't say how many bone-y wings she ate before she demanded her free replacements like they usually gave her.

:hmm: #DINDUNUFFIN

[SearchMaster]

Um, you pull a gun if they try to give you boneless wings when you ordered real wings, not the other way around.

Once this would have offended me, but the sad, pathetic march into the shitter of my beloved home state over the last 5 years has me shamefully nodding my head in agreement.

lol, really? I was youngin in Rocky Town and that place went deep into the shitter ~mid 80s and has never really recovered.

I went back to the ol neighborhood ~2012 or so and it was terrifying.

I think the Triangle is what you meant.

I like Wilmington--it's hard to not like a college beach town for various reasons, but it's still kinda stanky compared to the rest of the coastal towns. I liken it to a clean and classy version of Myrtle Beach.

Oh....I get it. You have excised those places from the state for reasons. Good call. There are a shitload of western counties that need to go, too.

Agreed. I've been vying to move back since shortly after I moved away 12 years ago, but recently, I've changed my mind entirely.

Damn, if Rocky Mount was deep into the shitter in the mid 80s, it's in the lowest place in the shitter now. you may even could say it's flinging shit out as they expanded city tax range about 5-8 years ago. so now a bunch of people that didn't have to pay their outragus city taxes for services they don't get, have to pay them and were told they would not get them. how the fuck???? apparently the people couldn't stop the annexing.

i was used to it in the mid 90s and i thought it was getting bad then. i avoid it when ever possible now.

It wasn't deep in the shitter then, but it was on an inevitable trajectory. The family moved us out when i was still in the 2nd grade, so I didn't get any of this until later.

Dad was then a professor at Wesleyan College, which was (And still is?) a big employer at the time. All of our neighborhood was primarily Professors with a mixture of the Hardee's execs of the day. I think Hardee's moving out around that time (I think it was at that time), and with the admins at Wesleyan driving out most of their departments with a "culture change" and budgetary downsizing--much of which had to do with city leadership--the neighborhoods that I knew quickly evaporated. Those people were beginning to flee ~1984 or 85, and we went back to Raleigh in 1987.

There was still an operable downtown RM in those years, and Bob Melton's had survived it's...28th? flooding and was still going strong. Well, all of that has long changed.

My uncle, who has been "long-retiring" as a pharmacist for KMart (KMart being KMart fucked over his pension several times), sent him down to "close out" the KMart in Rocky Mount about 8 years ago, and he's been stuck there ever since. The Pharmacy field is changing anyway--tough to find senior pharmacists that operate in the same kind of position that he does--but it's been completely impossible to find interns and junior pharmacists straight out of training willing to tolerate Rocky Mount for more than 3 months at a time. Turnover for him has been something like 2 or 3 pharmacists per year, leaving him trapped. He's finally done in 2 months, though, which will put him back in the mountains for good.

I'm not really privy to all the details of what doomed the town, but dad has filled me in some of the mayoral and superintendent machinations that were going on when we were still there. About 12 years ago, I met Alan Gurganus when he was doing a public reading of his then current novel. Afterward, I mentioned that I also "grew up" there (I consider myself mostly a product of Raleigh, but with a bit of RM because I retain strong memories), and he signed my book: "A fellow Rocky Mount escapee! NEVER RETURN!"

congrats indeed on escaping. Thankfully i don't live there. i do live and have always lived near there. 15 minute drive. a couple of my friends lived there, one grew up there and parents still live there and his dad runs a company there. It's horrible from their description. His parents fell under the last annexation. Some people at work live there and they always complain about it, but apparently can't afford to move due to electric bills taking all of their money. something they didn't know before they moved there. I'm sure there is more to that, but everyone seems to have similar extremely high electric bills for kw/h. People that move here to work where i do develop a quick opinion about RM if they rented an apartment there.

Listing to my friend that grew up there and his accounts of going shopping with his grandparents down town and comparing it to how it was just a few years ago before he moved, to FL of all places, it's sad. Partly similar to other towns that got Malls. Listing to him, it's corrupt council members, officials and partly the Mall. Granted, the Mall there is rather bad and is a hang out for some crappy people. There were very few shops downtown still open when i started driving in the mid 90s. I'm not sure who the larger employers are there now. Wesleyan is still doing well i think. Been a long time since i've even been that way. Was told the area around it was growing finally. Always found it funny that there weren't many places around the college; but, there are places springing up around it now i'm told.

#youredoingitwrongclarissa

They should have told her there's no such thing as a boneless wing.

 

[Blue_Max]

Sadly, it wouldn't have worked - she pulled this trick several times before -- or they actually did mix up the two things on a regular basis? Seems unlikely.

I'll bet money she orders one, eats half, then screams it's a mistake and demands the other... often.

That's actually a very common scam. The pizza shop I worked at had more than enough business - we had no problem with pissing "customers" off who tried to pull scams - we'd send a manager on the delivery with the replacement order, and he would only replace the wings that hadn't been eaten. If they ate all of the wings, "I got real hungry while I was waiting for you," we wouldn't replace the order at all.

We didn't have a problem with people attempting to scam us more than once.

Yep. Been there myself. :thumbsup:

From what was said, I gather this lady had been pandered to too often and she got used to it. When someone said NO for the first time, she went berserk.

There's a fine, fine balance between customer service and firm&fair - especially when dealing with greedy, selfish, unscrupulous diddlyboobs!

We and a couple other pizza shops used to trade names - customers like this were rejected as customers. They'd place an order, and when giving their phone number or address, "sorry, we don't deliver there."

Should have laid the cards on the table and told them they were black listed for being fuck ups.

They look like winners

Lmao. This really is like a story tailor made for the racist.
