Destaque Alterations

Took 5 pants in to have the waists taken in. One pair was casual and those were passable in quality. The other 4 were quality dress pants. The stitching she did was crooked and the seams no longer matched on any of the pants. One pair actually had an «S» pattern on the middle stitch on the back.
So, when I pointed out all the errors, she told me that I just needed to have them cleaned and pressed and they’d be fine. I told her I knew enough about clothes to know better, so she reluctantly took them in the back and made some adjustment or other. Then an employee told me «the professional machine is broke, so she had to do it with another machine». It’s one thing to make a mistake. It’s another to try to lie to customers.
I brought them to a real tailor who told me he could fix 2 pair and the other 2 probably couldn’t be fixed economically.
