Close encounters with real life customers

“With so many funny, endearing and immensely encouraging stories and quotes from customers, I thought I’d start a collection and share them here to warm the heart. The photos are different ways I’ve prepared Pink Muesli plus some contributions from real life customers, market scenes, production photos, etc. (Note: Reviews/Comments welcome here)

I’m calling this PINK TALES. Enjoy!”  – Marita (founder/producer)

Pink Tale #75, Determined tech angel

At Bendigo FM

Meghan and her Mum stopped by the stall, tasted everything and decided to purchase a few bags. My eftpos machine was not responding so I turned it off and on a couple of times. They decided to let my machine come back to life while they keep shopping and come back later. A while later, Meghan was back but my machine still wasn’t working and I was getting agitated.

Meghan: Try this, go to your settings and turn your mobile data off then on again. (I obeyed, and voila! It’s working again yay!)

Me: Meghan you’re an angel thanks! I even returned the first one to the shop for this very reason and they didn’t teach me this trick!

So now, my card reader was working!

Me: Ok, just tap the card. (She tapped but it asked her to swipe/insert chip and pin so she did. However, used to just tapping, Meghan could not remember her pin. You’d think after a second attempt I’d have lost a customer but no Meghan was undaunted, yes!)

Meghan: The car’s just there, I’ll go get my other card. Hold on to that bag (referring to her large purchase) and I will be back. (I set her bag aside and hoped for the best.)

Take 3.

Meghan: This should work now (we share lolz)

It worked, hooray! After all this, I had to make a pink tale! Thanks Meghan, you are my tech angel in the pink?
