As a working mom, the time you spend with your family is very limited and more so during the week. You have to maximize every minute, while you cook, while you clean, everything is synchronize in a way that you enjoy your family no matter what.
On Monday, I have asked my husband to buy a rotisserie chicken from Publix (local supermarket). It is 6:45 p.m., we are getting ready to have dinner and to my surprise the chicken was not fully cooked. I was so mad. Both husband and boy were hungry (and I was too) so we had to put the chicken on the oven for another 15-20 minutes.
At this point, I was livid. I had two options: let it go or call the supermarket and explained what happened. So I decided to call the supermarket. I was not looking for any compensation but I needed to have my voice heard. The manager was very kind and offered a free chicken.
It was not about the compensation or getting something for free, it was the principle that now another challenge was added to my busy schedule and my time with my family was decreased because of this incident.
Sometimes is the little things that matters and in this case, it came in the form of a chicken.
