Something going on, somebody says

I thank you for helping me to understand a text in "real time"

Here I don't know what "something going on" and "somebody says" implies too...


My guess is for "something going on" - A certain case in the restaurant is happening happening

Ans for "somebody says" it's something like someone said something about something?

I wrote him a letter. I said, “Please…we still give pickles away. Don’t you worry about it.… please come back.” and I gave him a coupon. Give ‘em the Pickle! But what happened is - and I thank him to this day - the war cry of our company became “Give ‘em the Pickle!” Take care of the customer. No matter what happens in our business, you hear something going on, somebody says, well what should we do… give ‘em the pickle…

I talk to companies all over the world. No matter where I go, I always find that successful companies and successful employees have mastered the same four things when it comes to taking care of customers. The first thing they do is give away pickles. They make people happy.
