How Not To Grow Your Business, pt. 94

Say you were looking to diversify your pub's offer. Say you approach a supplier to get some new beers on the bar. Would you do it this way..?

Hi we own a pub here in XXXXXXXX, and would like to know who's Dick you need to suck to get a fucking keg of your beer.

I can confirm this was not the work of our own beloved Rabid Bar Fly. I also imagine Dredgie will be tutting over the poor grammar. I am reasonably confident that the pub won't be getting any beer from that supplier.

Forget the grammar, I'd just like to go somewhere called XXXXXXXXX!

Is this real?

Having seen the email myself, I can confirm it's real, and they are lucky they we're dealing with polite people and not myself.

It is DEFINITELY real and Boggle forgot to include the last line in the email which was:
"please call if you have the balls to (phone number excluded"

That is weird. Did they think they were being quirky? Had they previously been refused supply? Bizarre.

Some people just don't get post ironic humour.

Bailey: I have no idea. I wonder if they approach all their suppliers that way?

Cookie: over my head, son... ;-)
