Nescafe Saves The Day Though Maggi Takes The Cake

Nestle’s Nescafe Saves The Day, Though Maggi Noodles Takes The Cake

It’s a hot and sunny Friday morning. 

Thank God, it’s Friday.   (Phew!)

A middle-aged gent enters a restaurant. He has been identified for some good-natured prank by the management and Nestle

The gent wipes the sweat from his face while a waiter puts the air conditioner on full blast. The gent expresses his gratitude and asks for a hot cup of coffee. The waiter makes a quick exit..

...and comes out quite quickly. The waiter tells the man that it’s Nescafé. Does he like the art on the cup of coffee? 

The man says sure, it looks like a logo of Nestle. 

The waiter goes in and comes out with the bill and a file.

The waiter presents him the bill and a fine.

The gent is perplexed. What fine, he asks.

You drank the logo, says the waiter

The good gent splutters and he begins to sound hysterical.

The waiter is unmoved. Would you drink our national flag? No, no? He opens the file and shows him some legalese. Company policy, Sir.

The gent turns an ugly blue. He wants to see the manager asap (oh, dear!) all of which is recorded and uploaded on YouTube (dear, dear)

The manager comes in nervously wringing his hands

“How can I help you,” he asks.

The gent gives him an earful and threatens to take them to court. (Tsk, tsk)

The manager apologises and says a joke was played on him by the management and Nestle and would he be so kind as to accept a hamper of Nescafé and Maggi Noodles with best compliments from Nestle. Thank you, vannakkum. The gent is happy and leaves. 

All’s well that ends well...

...until the next time...(wink, wink)
