I want to remind everyone that is either new to us or maybe does not know me personally:
My name is Mollie, I am the owner over here at G*Y. I love this community, I love this business, I love the other businesses that run in the same industry as mine and all small business owners out here just trying to do the damn thing.
But mostly, I love the women that help make my business what it is.
And I have to come on here and say this, because it tends to be around this time of year that we run in to people who assume that they are allowed to speak to the women in this bakery however they want.
I am here to tell you that will never fly with me.
I will ride or die for these women.
No one is perfect, sometimes you have to wait a little bit for your items, sometimes we are already booked for the weekend when you call on Friday for a 3 tiered custom cake for Saturday morning at 7am, sometimes we have off days...
While I will always be open to constructive criticism, because that is how we grow as a business, I will not allow:
-yelling (over the phone or in person)
-talking down to (over the phone or in person)
-posting reviews about how you think my employee did something to your food because they took a minute to go get you an extra side of something
-hanging up on them
-kicking the door when you leave instead of opening it with your hands because we ran out of an item you wanted
-commenting on ANYTHING about the appearance of my employees in a negative or derogatory way
-anything that puts my employees in a negative light mentally, physically or emotionally
The fact that this is even something I have to say is, frankly, kinda nuts.
I don't know if it's the cold snap in weather, stress of the holidays or the world just being wild right now. But I won't allow these women to continue to be spoken to the way that they have been.
WE SELL COOKIES, CUPCAKES, CINNAMON ROLLS, SCONES... friggin' baked goods and happiness frosted and sprinkled with rainbow jimmies.
If you can't act right, you aren't welcome.
And if this rubs you the wrong way, you're exactly who I am talking to.
So that's that, thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Happy Wednesday.
This Saturday is sticky bun and banana bread... set your alarms!
Okay, love you, bye.
Mollie
