A fantasy retail interaction
April 12, 2018 at 9:25 pm
(This post was last modified: April 12, 2018 at 9:26 pm by Silver.)
Customer: How are you?
Retailer: I'm doing horribly.
Customer: I'm sorry, why is that?
Retailer: You know....(explanation)
The reality:
Customer: How are you?
Retailer: (lying) I'm fine, how are you?
***********
With which scenario do you most agree and with which are you most comfortable?

Doctor: How are you?
Patient: Oh, I'm fine.
Doctor: Then why are you wasting my time?

I believe in discussion and getting to know people. If you're not okay, tell me. Just don't use it as an excuse to whine.

The second. As the retailer/sales it doesn't matter how the fuck you are unless you know each other personally.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Or if you're where I'm working at Subway: Directly from the manager: "don't whine, just focus on yourself and not how lazy other people are being".
