SOCIAL MEDIA- THE WRONG WAY

"dear everyone, sorry to have made such a SM mess of ourselves. i accept full responsibility for choosing my words so poorly and for not...remembering that the people i'm reaching are the ones who i might rub the wrong way. i was just looking for a laugh to wipe away a less...than memorable moment at the store. the last thing i would want to do is to put a bad taste in anyone's mouth, it's the opposite of...what i try my hardest to do for a living. i apologize to the crew for casting a gloomy shadow over what they do for a living too...this has been a humbling experience, and i pledge to use this forum more responsibly and with you all in mind. truly yours, jeff w, owner"
