That's kind of moot to note for you now, isn't it?
I work in customer service for a grocery store. I get to handle people that are already upset about something and try my best to make them happy again but there are some people you just can't please no matter what you do. I usually just let it go in one ear and out the other. if not, then I'll just go in back and kick around some cardboard boxes. just to make some tension release. sometimes though I don't think I make enough to deal with some of the people I have dealt with before. one such horror story goes as this:I had this one guy come in all the time and when he came up to the service desk counter this is our conversation:me: yes, sir, how can I help you?guy: when do you get off today?me: not til much later, sir, so what can I do for you?guy: you can come over to my house and cleanme: I'm sorry?guy: "name of company" pays you to help the customer, so you should come to my house and cleanme: *narrows eyes* sir, I don't get paid to clean customer's housesguy: yes you dome: no, sir, I don't. now is there anything else I can do to help you?guy: you just be ready later, when you get off, I'm coming to pick you up to take you home so you can get startedme: yeah, okay, have a nice daythat irritated me really badly because it seemed to me that he disrespected women so badly so he felt it his need to come harrass me daily on that kinda thing. and that's not the worst guy I get either.
I looked at her and said, "yeah, these are kinda funny looking chicken wings, I don't think you should get these." and I stuck them in my register cubby hole and stared at them point blank. they just smiled and left without another word. *shakes head* I'm not that stupid. ^^
