    I worked customer service for over a decade, and the customers I remember best were the nicest ones. My manager took the person who was supposed to help me handle lunch rush, so I was on my own, and handled over $1.5k in sales. These customers came in to place a carryout order, and while I was taking their order, a pizza fell out of the oven. I fought the tears, but they were winning. The customers asked me if it would be better if they came back later, and that's usually polite customer for, "we'll go somewhere else." They actually did come back later, with a bag of lindor truffles and a card. On top of that, they tipped me really well, which was rare for carryout orders. I've forgotten most of the bad customers, but I'll never forget that act of kindness

      This is so very true. I worked sewing doing alterations and tailoring and some custom sewing. I remember the women who screamed at me on Christmas eve an hour before we closed because she demanded a full tailor alterations on her husband's suit. We were swamped with work and was going to be speed sewing till the last minute. We suggested she give the suit for Christmas and get it altered later. She reported us to better business bureau. We fought it.......we had witnesses. At the end of day the last customer gave 100 dollar tip. I went the grocery store.

      @Accrovideogames Před 2 měsíci +16

      It's socially acceptable to ask for consent first. As a customer, there are plenty of workers I would agree to hug if they asked. Although it's a contributing factor, being an attractive girl isn't a requirement. Other factors include not being terribly ugly (ironically, women are more likely to be in this category thanks to makeup and plastic surgery), not smelling bad, being clean, showing vulnerability (as someone with C-PTSD, this one triggers a lot of empathy), being courteous, and not following unlawful policies (plenty of businesses encourage their employees to break the law). The last one is important, as it can trigger my C-PTSD and turn me into a Karen, albeit one who is actually in the right.

      Customer complained that the soda was flat. We checked and saw that was the problem then explained it to the customer. He demanded a soda. We showed him that it wasn't working properly. Told him to watch us as we put the cup under the dispenser and filled it and gave it to him. He still accused us of doing something and demanded we give him the soda. 3 cups of flat soda later he started calling us every awful thing he could think of while throwing the soda at the window.

The nice customers didn't use to throw me like in the video (I know it's an exaggerated reaction for comedy purposes), but I (and my co-workers) would always inwardly react with 'Ah! Finally!

    I used to work as a cashier and a stocker at a couple different grocery stores, and my favorite thing about finally being out of that line of work is making the days of others who work in customer service positions just a bit brighter. Seeing them smile is such a delight when I know they must deal with as many or more nasty customers as I have dealt with.

    I used to work somewhere with one hour delivery (as in we were expected to get things delivered to people within roughly an hour). It was a ridiculous thing to offer and bred the most entitled customers. I still remember when we were short staffed on delivery drivers and a customer said it was fine if she got her delivery tomorrow, and I apologized about it, and she said, "I mean it's not that bad to just wait one day." I was so shocked to have a customer behave like a normal human being

    I’m not sure I’m super nice, but I’m too anxious to even correct mistakes when they happen or ask for substitutions. My first time actually drinking coffee was in university when I ordered a hot chocolate and they handed me a coffee. I just ask for something simple, say my thank you and leave bc I’m too awkward to try and make conversation.
    As for tip I’m kinda sensitive about that lol. In America (I live in Canada) you’re expected to give at least 15% even if you get basically no service or even rude service- honestly they can scoff at you, never return to your table then forget your allergy request and if you give like… 10% they’ll chase you out the door to ask why you’re screwing them over. It’s so much part of the culture that a tip for bad service isn’t that meaningfully different from one you’d give a good server (in my case 20%, it’s too expensive to go above that).
    I think it’s nice to be in Japan. The customers and service workers all tend to be polite and wrap things up quickly.

    deserves kindness and respect. The smallest thing like giving someone a smile, a thank you or even just a simple hello to the bus driver, the postman or your neighbour - these things matter more than we think, just a smile can make someone’s day … and he or she will probably pay it forward … give a smile to someone else :)❤

    Whenever I have exceptional service, I ask to speak to the manager. I ALWAYS get the “oh shit, what did I do wrong?” look. I have to say, quickly, “it’s for a good thing!” We are so tuned, since elementary school, to assume, if the head honcho (or principal) is summoned, it’s for something bad that we did. That’s a shame.

  • @coroixiwa
    @coroixiwa Před 3 měsíci +4

    They are rare even here at my hometown library when we’re stretched thin with a staff of TWO running around trying to do everything at once. In fact had one today after an extremely stressful incident dealing with a parent that at first played dumb as if they didn’t see our rules (I have them up everywhere for safety reasons), warned them three times and still ended up getting screamed at for her child getting hurt by jumping on our caterpillar sofa (It’s small and we have signs literally in bold saying it’s for sitting and reading and I asked her to please stop her child)… She learned the hard way that no the library is actually not at fault for you letting your child do such when I asked you repeatedly to do something; we are NOT a daycare! We are not to watch your child for you so you MUST have them with you even if you go into the other room, I do not care if you argue with me on it that is the rule at every library in our County; we’ve even had some leave their six year old here while they drove off, they are never happy when police call them. We also do NOT allow food unless we personally provide it for events due to misuse of us previously allowing it; choking issues and someone spilled candy all over a keyboard that we had to throw out because it melted into it. The list goes on.
    So after that parent left in a huff, I was just drained and trying to handle a difficult phone call while being forced to tell a patron in front of me to wait as the policy does state to handle in person patrons as priority but I was almost done dealing with the call while my coworker was on lunch. This patron left their books at the desk and wrote a little note saying they would give me time and purposefully went over to look at our new shelf with all new books to the library (Not new as in new to exist but new to the library itself). I finish the call and am just done with people, so when I apologize to the patron they brushed it off and I wound up breaking down crying (Apologizing while crying because I don’t like crying in front of people for any reason). They asked for recommendations on a specific genre and helped calm me down, which they didn’t have to do. Wound up making a $50 donation to the library and checking out a book from a genre I knew.

    I work in a grocery store and sometimes the noise and chaos and overall din of the day can really get to me. But once, I must have looked visibly angry, because a woman approached me as I was stocking the shelves, and she said, "It's going to be okay, sweetie." She was so soft-spoken and so kind I could not help but smile and I told her thank you and very quickly felt better. Why is human kindness like that feel like such a rarity these days?

    The other was a very large man who had not been able find new clothes in a while. I took his measurements, asked for a week n moved all stock that fit him to our store. You Cnt be manly when a grown man hugs you in tears over something as simple as clothing that fits. Gratitude at its finest

    I bought a belt a few months ago, it's been awhile since I needed a decent one - ended up I got one waaaaay too big and needed to exchange it for a different one; the customer service worker behind the desk must have been used to being abused by customers because she was incredibly timid and almost afraid to tell me that the new belt I picked was more expensive... when I told her that I was expecting to pay the difference and I was chill she just sorta broke for a second! Imagine being yelled at so much by toxic people all day long that something like that is almost normalized is atrocious!
