Shop Talk
What?! A NICE customer?!?!?!?!
So we talk about it and pick out the phone that will be best and the granddaughter said she would send him up here.
So we get everything done, and as he's leaving he says to me "I never have anyone treat me nice, especially as nice as you have been. Can I have your card, I want to send you something" so i'm like ok. He owns a fruit basket company and he told me cherries were coming in and that i should expect some.
So, just wondering, are there any customers out there that, instead of pissing you off, make you day better?
I asked why she just did that out of the blue...she said that since I was so nice to her as a customer she knows I would be nice to her family and she said that next month when it is time to pay her next bill she will be adding the whole family of 5 to her account...(she qualifies for 8 lines...) đŗ
So yeah I know how you feel... đ

i had a guy give me $20 for 1 cigarette i gave him. while he was in my store he also authorized over the phone a 3 day/3night stay for his attorney in a $300 a night hotel.

nicest guy i had gave me some of the new dollar coins.
i am a lot nicer to nice people, too.
Kinda-Goth chick and her electrician dad came in a few times, once with a repair problem and the other few times to upgrade, and each time I remembered their names and they remembered mine. We played word association games while it was slow at their insistance and it really made me take myself out of work mode for a bit, which was awesome. Her dad was also one of the coolest people I've ever had an adult conversation about science schtuff with. Its not often you get to drop theoretical time travel debuffers with someone whose as nerdy as you are.
The best recently was a complete surprise, too. This guy comes in in beach clothes smelling kinda sweaty with sunglasse...
