My friend Deb has a great blog and has written how service people really annoy her. Well one of them came out to California just to help me yesterday.
I was at Best Buy yesterday to pick up a video game, and when I got to the register I put the game, my Rewards Zone card and a coupon on the counter. All three were separated, you couldn't miss them. This guy is talking very intently to another employee and I was thinking "he should be paying attention to me" but I didn't want to seem rude so I didn't say anything.
So he scans my Reward Zone card, hands it back to me and as soon as I have put it back in my wallet asks me "Do you have a Reward Zone card?." Being the smart-ass I am, I said "Do you mean the one you just handed back to me?" At this point the other employee (a woman) wisely ceases their conversation and slinks away. After saying, "oh", he tells me my total. So I (with a great amount of patience) pick up the coupon that was right in front of him and make SURE he can now see it.
OK!
BTW, my new (repeat) job is pretty good. I'm working on the same application as I did last time, same office, same view, same people so it's very familiar. This week is milk-everyone-for-United-Way-money which means bake sales/doughnut sales/bagel sales/hot dog sales/ice cream sales/raffles, etc. galore. Since they give money to organizations that discriminate I have never given a dime to the United Way and luckily I can't eat any of that (yummy) stuff now anyways!
Only ONE MORE DAY until my favorite sushi in the world. What time is it? 4:43 am? Must be time to go to the gym!
