Yesterday someone told me: “I will never shop here again!” I saw them at the same time the following week! Lol. Just a reminder to not take anything too personally.

People are very stupid sometimes, I work for a customer service center in a store inside Walmart, and I hear that many times, but... You always come back to Walmart, so don't come with games.

Not only do clients do that, but we also do it when we quit a job because we feel we are being exploited and the next week we are at another job doing the same thing and being exploited.

What do they expect us to do when they say that? Should we cry? Should we beg them to stay and continue treating us like crap? I always respond "ok, have a great day." Showing them I don't care and won't play their games is so satisfying.
