0:00:00.150 --> 0:00:05.260
<v Speaker 1>Show is on. Fred's Fun Facts. Fred's Fun Facts. You

0:00:05.320 --> 0:00:15.300
<v Speaker 1>can learn so much, guys. Did you know that the

0:00:15.660 --> 0:00:20.720
<v Speaker 1>world's oldest known customer complaint is nearly 3,800 years old?

0:00:21.120 --> 0:00:26.140
<v Speaker 1>So in 1750 BC, a Mesopotamian customer named Nanny was

0:00:26.200 --> 0:00:30.150
<v Speaker 1>so furious about receiving poor quality copper that he had

0:00:30.190 --> 0:00:33.010
<v Speaker 1>his complaint inscribed on a clay tablet that he then

0:00:33.050 --> 0:00:37.870
<v Speaker 1>gave to the merchant. And that tablet survives today. He

0:00:37.930 --> 0:00:40.409
<v Speaker 1>was very upset. He wrote on a clay tablet, gave

0:00:40.430 --> 0:00:44.120
<v Speaker 1>it to him 3,800 years ago, and said, you gave

0:00:44.130 --> 0:00:47.140
<v Speaker 1>me crappy product. This was Yelp before Yelp before Yelp.

0:00:47.740 --> 0:00:50.339
<v Speaker 1>Send it on business. The next time you have a

0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:52.199
<v Speaker 1>complaint for us, I want you to inscribe it in

0:00:52.220 --> 0:00:54.770
<v Speaker 1>a clay tablet. I want you to send it to us.

0:00:54.770 --> 0:00:56.810
<v Speaker 1>Don't do that. More Fred Show next.
