Now I would like to talk about a bad service that I received in a shop. It was located in my neighborhood, and it is a very famous shop that I usually prefer. However, my family has noticed issues with this shop. It was two weeks ago when I arranged a get-together party and invited my family, friends, and relatives. When my friends and cousins came to my home, we enjoyed ourselves a lot, and I gave some clothes to my cousins. Suddenly, I needed to go to the shopping mall because I wanted some clothes urgently. I went to this shopping mall and bought some clothes. After returning home, one of my cousins did not like the clothes. Therefore, I went back to the shopping mall, and the shop staff spoke to me very rudely. Suddenly, he hit my head, and I started bleeding. My family rushed there and took me to the hospital. He apologized to me and my family, and we forgave him. However, he lost his job and was not happy about it.
