It's a two way street though Bear. I find more and more it's not just customers with an attitude. I've worked retail. More years then I care to count. From bookstores to toy stores. I've sold it all or most of it in retail. I ever acted as some of these people that currently work in the field and I'da been looking for a new job.
Down here on my sandbar I run into some grouchy people on both sides of the counter, was just up in Va. near Richmond, saw more of the attitude on both sides of the counter, for little or no reason.
If your a customer and your having a bad day..Don't take it out on me. I'm not your ex, your boss, your shrink, or your punching bag. I'm here to do my job. Let's make it pleasant for both of us
If your a worker and Having a bad day .. See above. Don't like your job then quit an stop taking it out on folks trying to spend their money with you! If your not a people person find a job where you know..you don't deal with them. lol.
Very simple rules to follow for both sides. Shame common sense isn't so common.
Oh and that other simple rule..."Treat others as you'd want to be treated."
