Wow! When it is so easy to look like a hero, and simply say " i am sorry!" Next time you come in, have a free slice or beer with your slice. You would have tweeted, and shared the positive feedback. I think you are dead on in your assessment, that...

In regards to the long wait, I remember using Twitter at the time it was happening and I posted a Tweet at the 25 minute mark. 3 minutes later we got our first piece and just a bit afterwards we got the second piece. I could be off 1 minute, but n… Continue
