Retail and Customers (1)

One of the beauty of working in retail is the opportunity to experience customers' behaviours at first hand.  A customer want to lose weight, she bought dietery products but too lazy to return the products she doesn't want to the original place. The products she didn't want were just near to the products she wants, she didn't even bother to think, look, and move her hand to burn a bit of the calories. A girl with acne problem spent an hour in acne section, she picked up every single products but never return the products to the same place. I clean up after her mess when she left, but not long after I tidying them up, she returns unapologetically to the same section and create the same jumble again just before my eyes. Oh my gawd, please girl how can you expect to win your acne battle if you can't clean up after yourself, something that just go without saying. Practice some good behaviours, it definitely will brought up good results and change your life for the better.

Honestly, it doesn't take a lot of effort to put the products back to where it was, I just couldn't understand people sometimes. I think being tidy, kind and responsible  are hard things to do for some people. I wonder the way they live at their own house, they probably often lose things and accused other people other than themselves to have taken their stuffs. When they lose something they might not even bother to find it, or they probably forget they have it, and they just replace it with the new one. They probably got upset quite easily, quite consumptive, big sense of entitlement, always take and rarely give.

These type of customers just challenge me and annoyed me to the bone. My husband used to has the same attitude towards his unwanted items at the shop, he just left the products anywhere and told me that to return the items to the initial place is the workers' job, he gave them the opportunity to keep their job. 

Anyway, oh Lord thank you for teaching me to be patient through these ignorant VIP (very irritating person) customers for these past 15 years 🙏🙏🙏, they definitely here to bring up the best in me.

Tiny But Big

The biggest and most captivating smile that I have ever received is in 2004, when I was doing a charity work to the marginal people who live in the landfill of the wealthiest people in the country. The warmest hug that I have ever received from a stranger is in 2018 from the homeless man who stop and asked me if I have a spare change which I did not have. Despite the fact that I had nothing to give him, he gave me a hug that I can't forget, the hug that come unexpected yet so beautiful. God usually pack a lot of power and strength into tiny little packages, in the most humble way.
