Ttulo: [Spanish Audiobook] The Green Rice
Descripcin: THE GREEN RICE
PART ONE
One day, Pedro went to the Plaza Norte shopping center.
In the Plaza Norte food court there is a restaurant called "El arroz verde".
This restaurant is very famous.
There are green rice locations all over the country. Pedro ordered his favorite dish:
Rice with salad and beef. He paid six dollars for this plate.
In ten minutes, his plate was ready.
Pedro took his food and went to sit down.
That day the food court was full of people.
While he was eating, Pedro noticed that there was a hair on his plate.
Pedro approached the restaurant manager and said:
"Look at this: There's a hair on my plate. Disgusting! You have to give me another plate."
The manager said, "Sir, our kitchen is clean.
That hair can't be ours. It must be yours.
I'm sorry, but we can't do anything."
Pedro said, "It can't be mine. This hair is long, and I have short hair."
"I'm sorry sir.
You should have seen that before the plate left here.
You took the plate away without saying anything. Therefore, we can't do anything anymore."
Pedro went home. He was very angry.
He decided to call The Green Rice's office.
He found the number on the internet. He called and heard this message:
"Thank you for calling The Green Rice.
If you know the extension number , please dial it now.
If you would like to speak to sales, please dial one. Accounts Department, two.
Party Committee, three. Gossip Committee, four.
Unimportant Matters Department, five.
If you are tired of listening to this recording and want to speak to a human being, dial six. "
Pedro dialed six, and heard the following:
"Your call is very important to us.
Right now all of our staff are busy watching a soccer game.
Or maybe they are in a meeting talking about how important our customers are.
Please wait on the line."
Pedro listened to this message for half an hour. Finally, a girl said:
"Good morning. Sara Jiménez at your service. How can we help you?"
Pedro said: "Look, miss.
Today I made a purchase at El arroz verde in Plaza Norte.
While I was eating, I saw that there was a hair on my plate.
I spoke with the store manager, but he said there was nothing he could do."
The girl said, "Good. Did you take a picture of your plate when you received it?
This way you could show that the hair was already there."
"What? Who takes pictures of their food?"
"Everybody does, sir. They take pictures of their food to share on the internet.
But hey ... If you don't have proof, I'm sorry. We can't do anything."
"Thanks for nothing, miss."
"Have a nice day, sir."
Pedro didn't know what to do.
In the evening, he decided to post his story on the internet and went to sleep.
The next day, Pedro had a private message.
It was from an account called "Green Rice Customer Service." The message said:
"Don Pedro: I apologize for the problem you had.
We are going to give you a thousand dollars so that you can forget all this suffering.
What was your payment method?"
Pedro was very happy. Finally someone from the company had heard him.
He replied that he had paid with a debit card from his bank account.
The other person asked for your full name and address. Pedro gave him this information.
The other person wrote:
"Don Pedro, I can't find this payment in our records.
Could you give me your date of birth and identification number?"
Pedro gladly gave all this information.
The other person said that he had finally found the payment and was going to call him on the phone.
Pedro gave him his phone number.
Immediately, Pedro received a call.
A very kind voice said:
"Good afternoon, Don Pedro. I'm Fernando, from El arroz verde customer service.
Before continuing I need to ask a security question:
What is the account number with which you made the payment? "
Pedro gave his account number.
The next day, Pedro had a thousand more dollars in his account.
He was happy! He did not expect to have such a quick solution to his problem.
PART TWO
A few months have passed. Pedro is in the theater with his girlfriend.
They are going to buy tickets. They want to see "The Phantom of the Opera."
Today is the last presentation. The last chance to see it.
Pedro asks for two tickets. But the cashier says,
"I'm sorry, sir, but there aren't enough funds in your account."
Pedro says: "It can't be! On Monday I received my salary."
"Sorry sir. I already tried swiping your debit card three times.
Your bank says there are no funds."
Pedro feels very bad. He has spent several months working on a very important project.
That's why he hasn't been able to go out with his girlfriend before.
And he had told her that he would take her to see "The Phantom of the Opera."
But there was nothing he could do anymore. He had to apologize to his girlfriend and take her home.
The next day Pedro goes to the bank. He is sure that everything is a mistake.
Maybe the bank's network had a problem. Maybe the (magnetic) stripe on the card no longer works.
Pedro talks to Customer Service at the bank and explains what happened:
"Miss, I tried to make a purchase last night.
But they told me there was not enough money in my account.
My girlfriend heard everything. What a shame!"
The girl from Customer Service looked up Pedro's account on her computer, and said,
"That's right, sir. You emptied your account yesterday morning."
Peter said, "What? I didn't do that! There must be a mistake!"
"Well, here it is in the system, sir.
It was yesterday at seven in the morning. You took all the money out of your account."
Just a moment. Seven in the morning?
What branch of this bank is open at seven?
Let me check, sir. Let's see ... here it is.
It is the port agency, in the south of the city.
It is the only one that is open at that time.
But I live and work in the north! I'm never in the south at seven in the morning!
You must have security cameras.
Check the cameras and you will see that I did not make that withdrawal of money.
Let me check, sir. Just a moment. No, I'm sorry.
Yesterday the cameras weren't working.
Actually, this is all very suspicious, sir.
I am going to report this case as a fraud case.
We will do an internal investigation.
In about two weeks you will have your money back.
About two weeks! I need to pay bills and I need to eat!
What am I going to do until then?
Well ... you could ask for a loan, sir.
We have the lowest interest in the market.
It's okay. I don't think I have a choice.
I need a loan of a thousand dollars for a month.
Of course, sir.
I'm going to check the system to see if we can give it to you. Just a moment.
The girl spent a while typing on her computer.
Pedro was nervous. At last the girl said,
I'm sorry, sir. We can't give you the credit.
You have already requested three credits in different banks, and have not paid them.
Pedro was very afraid. He had never asked for any credit.
What was happening?
Pedro was a victim of identity theft.
Months ago, Pedro wrote his story about "Green Rice" on the internet.
The account that sent him the private message was not an official account.
It was an account of a criminal gang.
Pedro gave all his personal data to this band.
The band requested several credits on behalf of Pedro.
Finally, they emptied his account.
Pedro now has a lot of work to do to clear his name.
End.
