And.... Cut!!!

And.... Cut!!!

Yesterday was one of those days.....

You know those days. The day where everything that could possibly go wrong, does, and everything you attempt to do backfires.

By 11:30 am I was ready to hide my head in the sand and pretend the world didn't exist.

It probably wouldn't have been so bad had it NOT been the 6th weekend that I've worked in a row, or the 6th day that I'd worked in a row. The customers were bitchy, my coworker was working my last nerve, and my feet were hurting to the point it felt like I was walking on pins and needles.

My breaking point came at about the point that one of the customers had a fucking stroke over the fact that we didn't carry her seasonal (Christmas) Balsam home fragrances in April.

Are you fucking kidding me?

Who wants their house to smell like a Christmas tree in the middle of April?!?

It took everything I had to not yell "And CUT!!" in the middle of her scene and tell my coworker "It's a WRAP!"

Somehow, I managed to continue on with a smile on my face.

Definitely an Oscar winning performance. At some point, I will get the opportunity to witness these fucktards in their chosen places of employment. I only hope I get the opportunity to bestow upon them the same treatment and care they have shown me.

 I'll have to check out your profile and see your location. Sounds like we're neighbors going by the description of your customers and co-workers. Of course rudeness and uselessness are a national phenomenon these days.
Standards are people too.....kinda

Yes, I have to agree, it is definitely a national phenomenon. As a society we have forgotten what it means to be kind.

 I worked all my life in the customer service. And yes, they can be stupid and demanding at times, so when I am the customer I treat the service people with all the respect I wish I had gotten. Hang in there dear, there are good customers out there.
I believe nothing until it has become history!

There are good customers out there..... Every once in a while I get a glimpse of one.
