Read the full story below for all the details.

I hate when customers…

I’ve been working customer service jobs for a long time. These are some of the things I hate the most.

I hate when customers come in and I say, “Hi, what can I get you today?”

They respond with, “A million dollars.”

Or they come in huffing and puffing from walking, and Tteir response is, “A La-Z-Boy recliner.”

This woman just wants a real answer.

Like, come on. Just tell me what you want.

I don’t need to hear your corny jokes. They’re never funny.

If I was going to give anyone a million dollars, it would be me.

It would not be you.

She also hates conversations that are too personal.

I hate when customers come in and start telling you personal things.

These are complete and total strangers. They will say things like:

“Man, I’m tired today. I just had surgery on my foot and it’s so hard to walk around. It’s bleeding all the time. I even saw some pus in there.”

She doesn’t care about everything customers say.

Or they say random things like:

“I’m having steak and potatoes for dinner.”

“I’ve got to do some laundry, too.”

“I also have to give my husband a back massage.”

She just wants to do her job. Period.

What? Why are you telling me these things?

Clearly, I didn’t ask. Obviously, I do not care.

Keep these thoughts to yourself. Don’t tell cashiers stuff like this.

Just come in, get your stuff, and leave.
