Dear Customer

Dear Customer, 

I love helping you, I really do. I love it even more when I am able to help you find exactly what it is you want, or what you don't even know you want. I love the smile on your face when you've found that perfect thing. But, dear customer, there are some things I just do not like. 

I know you've had a bad day. I know that your husband didn't do that errand you asked, or your kid is throwing a tantrum. I know that you have to go to work, and I know that you are stressed. But dear customer, I too may be having a bad day. I too am a person just like you. 

Customer, please do not yell at me, or tell me that you are never shopping our store again because you do not get your way. Please do not tell me it is horrible customer service not to give you all your money back because you do not properly care for your belongings. Please do not demand things from me. I am getting paid little money to deal with your stress. Please keep your stress outside. I am a young woman, not your therapist. I am not your child, or your husband, so please keep your annoyances to yourself, and do not think you can have your way all the time. 

Customer, sometimes you make my day. But sometimes, you are just plain obnoxious.

Sincerely, 

Stefanie
