Nooone said nothing to me on the way in . I used the restroom as i walked in since there was a line. As i checked out the food, the store manager made sure someone assisted me. The cashier told me about a deal for pizza that comes wit a drink. What she didnt tell me: i leave to go get the drink she just told me about, im gonna get skipped.
As soon as i came back to the counter, she we meet at the counter and she skipped me and assited the woman with the sam skin color as her. So i walked out. Bad customer service. I really wanted to try that pizza since it was my first visit.
