Now that's what I'm talking about! Wouldn't that make all of our lives easier? :)

Absolutely.

Exactly! Customers always give you the reasoning "customer is always right" even if they are being abusive and really obnoxious. When is yelling at a CSR right?

The customer is always right mantra went out the window a long time ago

I learn so much by observing my own behavior on the other side of things but maybe I naturally have more empathy for those in customer service.

If only we can post this in the window at the store

You would think that this would be common sense but nope

I never understand why people think they will get more accomplished by being rude and beligerent

Right, it's really that simple you know... You treat people the way you want to be treated

Be the best you can be, And bring your self to another’s understanding and always remember, how would you like to be spoken to or treated. Aren’t we all customers of consumer goods?

This is absolutely correct. If you're having a bad day, make it better by getting it started right. Respect others, and you will be treated with respect in return.
