I know I'm a 'ranting old middle aged spinster' but seriously, all this ranting and public shaming on social media is really getting to me.
Today two posts popped up on my FB page. One was a full on photo of a guy who had asked to take his dog into a shop (and been refused because he wouldn't carry it) and the other was of someone who had witnessed a waitress licking her fingers and then serving customers.
Firstly...………... can I just say; I agree that dogs should not be allowed in 'food shops' and nor should staff in restaurants be 'licking their fingers'. ...............But seriously...……………… Why does this need to be posted all over social media?? Both of these posts had umpteen comments within an hour.
Shit happens...………………… get over it.
Social media isn't always a good thing...……………...
I'm pretty sure that both of these businesses are going to be destroyed by the negative comments that they have received. Why do people, (and quite often people who have actually no knowledge of how that particular business is run), jump on the bandwagon and start making very derogatory comments.
People write reviews in the heat of the moment. Take a step back peeps. Think about it. Do you really want to destroy someone's liviehood? Instead of posting a review on the internet, why don't you actually go and talk to someone????
……………..You have a problem? ……………….You don't like the fact that a dog isn't allowed in a shop? Go speak to the owner and find out why? You see a waitress licking her fingers? Go and ask her if she's been 'Food Hygiene' trained.
Don't just hide behind a load of really negative comments on a FB page.
COMMUNICATE.
I feel really strongly that no one talks to each other these days. No one communicates. Everyone is too quick to leave a comment on social media.
Think about it peeps.
If you can't say it to their face then don't say it at all!!!
