I used to hate Boston Market, but maybe I’ve misjudged it. Any restaurant that will have its employees go this far to make the customer happy deserves all of our business.

This is an actual story, not my usual whimsy. One of my best friends whom I lived with a couple years back loved Boston Market, but it was too far to go by foot and I never wanted to go there in my car. So one day my other roommate/best friend and I were talking and we had a hankering for Boston Market. Unfortunately our other friend who loves the place wasn’t there. So we went to the Boston Market, got some food, and decided the best way to commemorate the moment would be to take photos of ourselves eating Boston Market, post them as our Facebook profile pictures, update our statuses to something to the effect of “Mmmmm, lovin’ this Boston Market food!” and then wait for our friend to find out. And he did. And he moped about it for days.

It goes without saying that I don’t really have many close friends.
