CONSUMER ALERT

I can’t believe I almost forgot to post this. Tonight Eric picked up Wendy’s for dinner. Meredith’s kid’s meal came with a bacon cheeseburger rather than a plain one, so it had tomatoes and lettuce and mayo on it. She took off the tomatoes and lettuce but didn’t know what to do about the mayo. She really didn’t want mayo, so she came to complain to her Daddy because he got it for her. He told her that he didn’t order it with Mayo, Wendy’s just made it that way, and she should call them up to complain! So he has her get the phone, and he pretends to look up the Wendy’s number while actually dialing his own cell phone. He hands Meredith the phone when it was ringing and he went into the other room to answer it. OMG it was SO cute!

Meredith – hello?
Eric- Hello, this is Wendy’s
Meredith – I am Meredith
Eric – Hello Meredith, what can we do for you?
Meredith – you put mayonnaise on my burger
Eric – we did?
Meredith – yes, and I don’t like mayonnaise
Eric – did you order mayonnaise?
Meredith – no, my daddy just ordered a cheeseburger
Eric – We’re sorry about that. What do you want us to do about it, Meredith?
Meredith – I don’t want you to ever do it again!
Eric – Ok, next time we won’t put mayonnaise on your burger.
Meredith – right. Next time don’t put mayonnaise on my cheeseburger.
Eric – we won’t. We promise.
Meredith – Thank you! Good bye.

Hangs up the phone and looking all proud tells us that they promised they wouldn’t do it again and went and ate her cheeseburger

  1. That is SO cute! I love how she simply said, “I am Meredith” at the beginning.

  2. LOL! That is cute. :)

  3. YES!!!!!! i think you shoulda let her actually call wendy’s, tho! lol!

  4. oh kara – the real wendy’s might not be so nice to her though!!

  5. Man you guys, she was so STRONG! I think if it were me, I would have freaked out, tossed the phone at my mom or dad and ran off giggling. Even now I might do that, lol.

    I was in awe of my baby…my four year old baby. It really blew me away.

    And if she had really called Wendy’s, I am sure they wouldn’t have understood a word she was saying and would have hung up on her thinking it was a prank call, and she would have felt bad.

    Oh, and I should add that Eric was doing this from the other room, loudly, you could clearly hear him talking as the Wendy’s guy, but Meredith was so focused on the task at hand, she didn’t notice. I’m glad Allison wasn’t in the room because she would have laughed and told Meredith it was a big joke, and Meredith wouldn’t have had the opportunity to be so STRONG and feel so respected in return. She achieved something, and that was so neat to see. She was so proud afterwards.

  6. That is *so* cool, and cute, and strong, and awesome!
