The bookkeeper/office manager at our office has a sign worded nearly exactly like that hanging on her office door... Kinda goes along with one I use at work... "I work miracles every day but today isn't your day." And yes, I've told customers that. I also had a lady tell me that she was going to be my "problem" customer one Sunday. I looked at her, smiled and said, "Today's Sunday. I don't have time from problem customers on Sundays." Turned around and walked away. Half an hour later she brought me back a coffee and a danish from Starbucks and she was nice as could be, no problems. I took care of her and she left. No, I did not eat or drink what she brought me.

SiG Lady Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 There's a Firestone/Bridgestone service center one mile from my home which I frequent for minor services, and I routinely bring them bags of snack foods as a goodwill investment toward cheerful service. They love it and it doesn't cost me much. Needless to say, they get a kick out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When her bus breaks down she takes baked goods to the mechanics. Guess who's bus gets moved to the head of the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
