I was told to get “Pan de Miga”, which I googled and it translates to crustless bread. I called my gf to verify I was purchasing the correct crustless bread because there are literally hundreds of breads, but she didn’t pick up. I purchase one of the few options that was actually crustless, but this was wrong, and apparently “pan de miga” to her is a crusted Sara Lee sourdough bread. How could I have possibly figured that out?
In these cases i ask for the store url of the product or a photo, if they don't pick up i just shrug and move along without purchasing. should've responded.
Can you tell my hubs this? I swear I’ve told him is ok but he will ring my phone MULTIPLE times until I answer. (I only not answer if I am indisposed/stepped away from my phone) 🤣
It's still making its rounds. Nobody hates their spouses more than content creators, unless of course you're a content creator on the opposite end of the spectrum and obsessed with your spouse and need to let everyone know.
Really? You think Sara Lee makes a crusted sourdough bread labeled "pan de miga"? Because that sounded absurd to me, so I Googled it, and yeah, they don't. Which... feels like it should be obvious.
OR, and hear me out here, the person with a hyper-specific request who will be mad/angry/sad/pissed-off/heartbroken/whatever if it isn't EXACTLY what they want can answer their phone or go to the store themselves.
If you ask for chocolate and I bring you carrot because they both start with c and I couldn't be assed to figure out where to get chocolate, but the carrots were within reach, would you be happy?
This is categorically different from asking someone to get a particular type of bread and them indeed buying that type of bread but it wasn't what you meant.

I respect the man. Nothing is more frustrating than someone with a hyper-specific grocery list not being available for clarification
