People who are ignorant of the challenges of being a small business owner just won't get it. It's a shame they'll speak from that place of ignorance to try to bring punitive consequences on situations they don't understand at all. When an apology and restitution aren't enough there's something terribly wrong with the spirit behind the criticism.
