Dec 11

As I was finishing up with the customer and thanking her for her business, I wished her “Happy Holidays” and she responded with “thanks, and Merry Christmas to you. I guess I can say that now”. As it was a customer, it took every fiber of my being to not respond to her with “you’ve never NOT been able to say it moron!” But as sweetly as I could I just said “ that must be such a great feeling!” Man, I just can’t with these people.
