I hope the customers are being kind to you this week. I am getting a pretty 50/50 split. It is very clear to me people who haven't worked customer service jobs before!

I hope you're all making it through. Any stories you can share of kind customers?

It's been a rough week and month over here. I can count on one hand the number of positive customer interactions I've had. The only one that sticks out was a customer trying to give me $20 for helping him find something. I told him I couldn't accept tips per company policy, he said "Oh that's too bad," winked, dropped it on the floor and walked away 😂.

I would say that most of the customers are being somewhat decent human beings. However, the rough ones are extremely rough. It’s like five or six people have decided they were going to bring all the crazy and make up for anyone else who wants to be a normal person. Happy holidays!

It's the same every year. 90% of the customers are great, or at least not a problem. But this time of year, the problem customers are epic. Just glad it's all over (but the returns and inventories)

Same here, some days are great, some are… not so much! A few customers have really made my day though, like the ones who actually say ‘thank you’ and chat for a minute. Those moments make it all worth it

I gained weight during my last relationship (probably around 30 lbs, and I’m 5’9”). Before my relationship, I felt like I could get any guy.
