Sorry folks for the inconsistent postings lately! I had to find a steady schedule to keep up with the blog and I think I’ve found it. So I will continue to post daily at 10 PM Pacific time on weekdays. I need to keep up with my blog reading as well. I’ve been out of touch with my fellow bloggers and readers. I miss the interactions with the comments as well. Thank you all for continuing to read Mostlygrocery. We’re still working on the secret project for our readers, by the way does anyone know how to make logos? Email me at pkwynn@mostlygrocery.com for more info!
There are some people who are always nice to each other. Then there are some who only act nice if they want something. We always get customers that want something who call us by our name. Customers we barely know and the only connection they have with us is with our name tag. They like to “butter us up” by being really nice to us and then drop the favor bomb…
Buttering Ben: Hey, Paul. How’s work treating you?
Me: Umm.. it’s going okay, I guess.
Buttering Ben: Paul, you always seem to be in a good mood. I always like coming into your line.
Me: [confused] You do?
Buttering Ben: I only go to this store because of the way you guys treat your customers.
Me: Thank you. That means a lot!
Buttering Ben: Paul, I need to cash this check.
Me: I’m sorry but our customer service booth only does that and it closed at 6 PM.
Buttering Ben: Paul, can you do it just this time?
Since he’s nice…
Me: Sure, why not?
Our store policy doesn’t allow us to cash third party checks.
Me: Sorry but we can’t accept third party checks.
Buttering Ben: Paul, you can trust me. I come here all the time.
Me: I’m sorry. It’s store policy.
Buttering Ben: Paul, comon…
Sigh…
