Pésima la atención de panadería y pastelería El Rosario, ubicada en Altavista, no la que esta en Unicentro. El dia de ayer 08 de mayo de 2019, ordene un brazo gitano el cual deje cancelado, para retirarlo este día 09 de mayo de 2019, a primera hora, llegue 5 a las 7 am, al hacerme presente una señora de las que labora en dicho lugar, persona de aspecto no joven, piel blanca, cabello con tinte, de estatura mediada, quien había salido a la acera se dedicaba a entrar a la tienda, en ese momento le comento que encargue un pastel para retirarlo hoy, me dijo esta no es hora y se soltó en burla ingresando a la tienda comentando con sus demás compañeros y dirigiéndonos con la vista hacia mi persona. Lamentable la actitud de dicha señora, porque las empresas se deben a los clientes, los que merecen un trato respetuoso.
