If you order a meal at a restaurant and don’t like it because it’s not to your taste, do you refuse to pay? A simple analogy but effective here, I feel.
Also, when you are turned away, you keep your money. When we are turned away, we lose money. That comparison makes no sense
Not sure that is the best analogy when I have actually gone to a restaurant and ordered a very expensive veggie burger and when I took one bite of it got a mouthful of beef.
By your analogy I should have eaten the burger they gave me or at least paid the full price of the burger rather than waste the Cook and Server's time.
I almost threw up as I have been a vegetarian for 20 years now.
So again using your analogy that because it is not my taste, I should take the blame. It is my fault.
If you call something "a car show model" or a "deluxe veggie burger" and it turns out to not be what has been advertised as the veritable product, although all the pictures and videos only reveal what appears to be a car show model and it turns out the burger is not a veggie burger, I am okay with paying a penalty of 20% for walking out.
But I am not so happy to need to pay 80% or 100% of the fee for walking when the advertisement was misleading or outright false or the start of the service was so awfully bad or actually was not what was agreed to by text.
Friday night I ended up having to give someone $120 to walk after 5 minutes of really bad "cold shower shrivelled penis" causing service.
Yea that's my fault that I took Viagra and the person killed a perfectly good erection and informed me she actually doesn't provide what the advertiser promoted on LEO.
Oh and at the restaurant where I had taken a group of five people to eat, they brought me the veggie burger 15 minutes after most everyone else finished their meals and I lost my appetite and trust of the cook and just left the veggie burger sit there.
But like the "nice chump I am" I paid when I should have sued.
You had one thing right. I didn't refuse to pay, but I completely felt that I was cheated.
Here is a better analogy. If you go to a mechanic and she tells you that she is going to tune-up your car and all she does is wipe your windshield with a dirty rag and checks your tire pressure, are you going to be happy paying her the $260 she wants?
Is it your fault that her interpretation of a tuneup is different from yours? You made the appointment with the mechanic thinking it was something it was not. Would you walk?
