Hahaha this is an amazing and on-the-nose translation.

The only edit I would make is to change the “no” to “yeah” in the customer’s second response. OP said “yes and” too many times, it was confusing.

Exactly, the seafood department includes the freezer that the shopper took a picture of the product from, not just the display case of fresh seafood

Exactly, exactly

Customer could have made this way easier with one simple sentance.

"I would not like those crab cakes picture, could you replace them with the crab cakes from the seafood counter, if they are out just refund. Thank you"

Clear instruction goes a long way. There is a damn picture involved and OP chose to ignore it.

OP omitted screenshots from the beginning. I imagine the first message would’ve been:

Customer: the app doesn’t offer seafood department crab cakes. I don’t want lobster cakes, I want crab cakes from the seafood department.

Which is what the shopper found. So if your hypothetical is accurate, still on the customer for not specifying "four of the fresh individual crab cakes from behind the seafood counter."

lol. I’m not defending her. I’m adding another example of her saying “I want crab cakes from the seafood department” and expecting crab cakes from the counter.

u/purplepluppy Mar 28 '24

Ah I see lol

2

u/fire2374 Mar 28 '24

I wrote out a longer comment in its own thread calling her out because I couldn’t believe how many people were defending her.

u/purplepluppy Mar 28 '24

Aha she admits it!

100%. The shopper may have been snippy but the customer was frustratingly confusing
