Yesterday, I watched a co-worker ringing up a customer. She said, "And I'll just need to see a piece of photo ID for the check" The lady stopped writing her check, looked up, and said angrily, "I'm still writing the check! I'll get out my ID in a minute. Hang on

***Just because they're salesclerks doesn't mean they're stupid, ill-bred, or deserving of rudeness.***

Yeah... that's right. Stupid, ill-bred and deserving of rudeness is reserved for our customers. =) Just kidding.

But are you really? Just kidding?

And I think it should be a requirement in life to be BEHIND the counter for a while...6 months each should do it. Amazing how much nicer people might become.

Umm.... Are you asking if I really am stupid, ill-bred and deserving of rudeness? And then saying "Just Kidding?" ;)

Am I really 'just kidding' about the customers? Well, no not really. But I didn't want to get flak like Aut did on her journal. =)

Most of...The majority of...SOME of my customers are... I have several customers who are very nice, intelligent, and to the best of my knowledge, not inbred. Oops, I'm meant ill-bred. Almost no-one is deserving of rudeness, but it's damn hard sometimes. I'd say that a simple majority of my customers are stupid. Two-thirds are ill-bred. 3% inbred. 10% bake bread.
