Whether they’re buying at a local drug store or the ritziest downtown boutique, eating fast food, or at a five star restaurant, they are eating (touching, drinking) a LOT more than SNOT! If you don’t act like a HUMAN, you’re not going to get treated like one.
Also, CUSTOMER SERVICE DOESN'T MEAN CUSTOMER'S SERVANTS! When you pay SOMEONE ELSE to do something you are too lazy, too busy, etc., to take care of yourself, you should be THANKFUL for any help. If you’re EVER being rude, unreasonable, arguing, demanding, unprepared, or even just calling or insisting on talking to the wrong department, YOU ARE INTERFERING WITH THAT PERSON'S JOB!
If you’re LUCKY and the person you’re bullying is nice, you’ll get ignored, pitied, or hung up on. If you’re like most aggressive customers, YOU'RE GETTING LOST IN THE SYSTEM UNTIL IT'S TIME TO USE YOUR CREDIT RATING TO SCRUB TOILETS, or eating snot, or not getting that shoe in your size, or whatever service is being provided.
There is absolutely no reason to be rude or disrespectful to anyone to get what you want. You will get out of life what you put into it.
I have worked in different jobs that work with people on different levels. The one I currently work in is an area that I worked in 10 years ago and have come back to because I can make people happy on the level that I enjoy. Other jobs it was mostly phones. Sure , I was nice to them on the phone and tried to be helpful but now I am able to smile at people and they can see me. They can really see for themselves that I am happy to make them happy. I have A LOT of elderly people come in and they love it when you smile at them and are compassionate with them. Well everybody does. If these B@%*h's would stop and try being a little sweeter then they would find how much more they would get. You don't have to be mean and nasty to keep from being taken advantage of. Caution and wisdom will help with that.
