The Sweet Service Award goes to Sportmans’ Warehouse at The Point Mall, and its staff member Ronaldo, for his excellent service in selling me a new FitBit Charge 3, alerting me to its arrival in the store and then keeping one for me until I had a chance to get to the store, not selling it to anyone else, and contacting me regularly. Once I arrived, he set up my details on the new FitBit, quite a lengthy process of about an hour, but both of us were patient, as the FitBit is a vital tool in my health and fitness management, synced with my Discovery Vitality App. Despite a device change, all my previous data measured on the FitBit Alta are still on my FitBit App.
The Sour Service Award goes to PostNet in Sea Point, at which I recently posted a parcel of two of my SwitchBitch books. A staff member was sitting down, and made no effort to come to the counter to assist me, until I asked him to assist. He was in no hurry to do so, so I was lucky that one of his lady colleagues was more professional than he, assisting me quickly and efficiently!
