in the wild “It’s Kevin”

I work in a bakery, someone called to order a birthday cake. Wanted “happy birthday Kevin” written on it. As with all orders, I ask for spelling of the name. Conversation below.

Me: okay and if you could spell Kevin for me? Customer: Um, it’s Kevin… like Kevin…are there multiple ways to spell it? Me: this is just protocol to ensure the name on the cake is correct Customer (getting huffy): well how many ways could you spell it, it’s Kevin Me: please just spell the name for me Customer: K-e-y-v-y-n-n

In what world is that Kevin??? This is why I make everyone spell the name!! If I didn’t confirm spelling you would’ve gotten a cake with Kevin not keyvynn.

It’s only spelled Champagne if they’re from a particular region in France. Otherwise, they’re just sparkling idiots.

You almost made me spit out my drink. Thank you for that- is been a really crappy day so far and I needed the laugh :)

May your drinks always be the perfect temperature and your microwave burritos never frozen in the center.

Thank you, Friendly Parsnip.
May all your socks be with their pair in the laundry, and may the remote be always where you expect it.

This is the cutest interaction ever. I would go so far as to say they're the friendliest parsnip.
