Weekend Selfie Vibes And Story Time

Hi guys, story time 😭
So this weekend, a client placed an order for small chops and chose small pies. Simple, right?

Order confirmed. Payment made. Delivery done.

Tell me why I get a call later saying she’s not happy… because the pies are too small 😭

I’m like, ma’am… that’s literally what you ordered.

Before I could even explain properly, one Nigerian uncle collected the phone and said,  
“Ayo, in London when we say small pies, we mean the medium ones.”

Uncle… we are in Telford 😭

At that point, I had two options:  
Stand my ground… or protect my brand.

And honestly? I chose my brand.

I went back with 7 bigger pies I had at home.  
No charge. No extra delivery fee.

When I got there, I apologised properly, explained calmly, and just handled it with grace.

The uncle smiled, held my hand, collected the pies… and just like that, peace restored.

And in that moment, I realised something:

Sometimes, it’s not about being right.  
It’s about being remembered… the right way.

Anyway, that’s my chaos for the weekend 😭.

I’m off to finally watch Virgin River like I’ve been promising myself.

How’s your weekend going?

Check out my latest post, The Lie that changed everything.

With Love,
Ayo
