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.

Smile

How to Win Friends and Influence People Dale Carnegie It costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None are so rich they can get along without, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits.  It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends. It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and Nature´s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away.  And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying someone should be too tired to give you a smile, maybe we can leave one of ours for them. For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none left to  give !  give ! https://www.thesun.co.uk/living/23...

Entitlement

People say our young generation is entitled, it is a good topic to joke about for the stand-up comedians. Entitled is believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment. I believe this is not owned by the young generation only, every generation has it, every one of us has it to some degree. This is a problem we have in society in any age, in any countries in this world. I remember when I was a kid, at night during the hot season our house was filled with mosquitos, and dengue fever are quite common in our country.  I can't remember whether I and my sister ever whined about it but I always remember the fact that my mother often stayed up late holding the insects killer racket just to defended us from the mosquitoes. However, My entitlement behaviour took the bad on me, I thought she ought to do that one because she is our mother, it's her duties to protect us. I did not really care how many hours she has spent at our room every night, or whethe...

Addiction

Addiction is the fact or condition of being addicted to a particular substance or activity. Addiction usually start with pain and end with pain. People will turn to addiction as an escape from their 'hard to deal with' current circumstances. Addiction have negative connotation but in my opinion addiction can be good and bad. But anything that not being done in moderation tends to bring more harm and good.  However, the dichotomy of bad and good, can we really be able to distinguish them? In my own opinion again there is no such things as true good and true bad, all good and all bad. It all depends on our own perceptions and our current states when it's happen. What is good now might not be good again tomorrow, the thing that is good now was not good yesterday. If we are battling with any addiction today, let's all of us be kind to ourselves. We should all acknowledge our addictions and bring them to the lights, but we shouldn't condemn them. We are what we are now b...
