don't understand customer service

they had no eggs at breakfast. The person serving said the delivery had not arrived- there was a supermarket just down the road but when I mentioned this she said the company would not allow her to buy eggs- must be from the agreed supplier. Not her fault that there was zero service- it is the responsibility of the managers who have failed to understand what is customer service. ustomer
