I try never to under-estimate how hard someones job is despite how badly they might be doing it, after all we've all exerienced something like this at one time or other right? As long as they're trying that's good enough for me.<br /><br />And that old adage of 'customer first' sometimes is just nonsense - we're all human and need to show it and I agree it's nice to be recognised regardless and it's also nice when someone takes the time to say 'I see you and I understand'.<br /><br />Like I say - I did have a bit of banter with her and hopefully left her with a smile that day.<br /><br />cheers!Alistairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16667242161539996736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2388717540545987605.post-85758039506767942772011-07-24T23:30:18.115+01:002011-07-24T23:30:18.115+01:00I worked a big event at the store last night, ring...I worked a big event at the store last night, ringing hundreds of people up for a triple-bill of 3 best-selling Young Adult authors. I had a blast being out of the office. What a difference, looking at people's faces rather than computer screens.<br /><br />Funny, because when being stuck at the register all day was my job, I hated it. <br /><br />But the few folks who truly seemed to see me always made a difference. It's a shame, because as merchants we should be brightening the customer's day, right?Aaron John Curtishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06633231503315269549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2388717540545987605.post-67049203270839827262011-07-24T20:01:20.616+01:002011-07-24T20:01:20.616+01:00LOL, i always try to be nice and help folk like he...LOL, i always try to be nice and help folk like her who are havin an `off day`...<br />a bit humour and banter often makes things a bit better for them, <br />i esp make that effort if there blond and have a nice smile -:)coastkidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06722983165386248189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2388717540545987605.post-75486516140820090842011-07-24T07:03:07.574+01:002011-07-24T07:03:07.574+01:00Bless, it's not easy working behind a counterBless, it's not easy working behind a counterlomhttp://justathoughtmyblog.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2388717540545987605.post-74851563635065861292011-07-22T10:59:27.076+01:002011-07-22T10:59:27.076+01:00Hullo BB - No it wasn't but I thought symbols ...Hullo BB - No it wasn't but I thought symbols and omens fitted with the post........<br /><br />I hope her day got better too.
