My issue is why do they even get upset anyway I’ve worked and still working in retail grocery stores department stores we’re human beings were going to make a mistake so if something was to happen just go back to them and just let them know I’ve had incidents where something was wrong or my order was wrong or something happened and I was simply just called them back and go to the store and let them know what happened but I don’t have to scream and shout and belittle someone because a human being made a simple mistake

Wtf. I’m sorry but any logical person just wouldn’t go off like that if we were random strangers in the street. Truth is employees in this era are nothing but robots and it’s all about the profit, which means they make it okay to be belittled and harassed when we really should not tolerate it at all. As a shift lead I do my part to make sure that customer has great service but once that person becomes rude and irrational then they can go to a different store and harass someone else. And I’m not even rude about it either. I nicely explain we don’t tolerate that here and that I’m more than willing to help them if they speak to us differently. No kind of money is worth being talked like that too

Thank you for this. Looked up videos about how to deal w this just to be met w "just don't react and smile". Today a woman went off on how bad of a casheer I am bc of dumb things that weren't my fault so I panicked and got choked up. Ppl who abuse workers deserve to suffer. Next time someone is going to yell at me they can talk to themselves. You get the energy you put into this world. Tired of older ppl complaining it's my gen that's rude it's always older ppl causing a scene. I think it's unreasonable to say "stay calm" that's not possible when you're under that much stress

This culture is exactly why we have a problem in the customer service industry, we apologise after being spoken to like garbage and now it’s just considered acceptable for people to be unnecessarily rude, well I certainly won’t tolerate it, I simply explain that to the customer that if they’re going to continue speaking that way they will have to leave. I’m over it.

The problem is that sometimes is not as easy as saying "Oh yeah, we will ship you another product for free and remove this and that charges". Where i work i have to request permission for EVERYTHING and sometimes getting a little tiny credit can become a huge deal, not even mentioning shipping something for free or removing charges past $100. That stresses me out a bunch, i wish i had that authority to move stuff around in a way that felt aunthentic and under my criteria. :/

@Canity

It's a technique that enables the customer to calm down, and for you to then take control of the situation. Doesn't justify people being rude though and if someone is being aggressive or swearing at you we recommend politely telling them if they don't calm down you will be unable to serve them and if they continue then just remove yourself from the situation

@Canity
@Canity 4 жыл бұрын
If one customer is relentlessly rude it is ok to very calmly and politely inform them that if they don't stop being rude to you, you will no longer be able to serve them and if they continue then it's ok to walk away. You could also politely ask them to wait whilst you get your manager to take over and then walk away to get your manager.

We suggest trying to explain from a different angle, using different words and using the same type of language they are using i.e. if they are saying contract but you are saying plan that could confuse them so using the word contract may make things clearer. You definitely need to be patient and stay polite.

Service workers are like a lightbulb attracting blood sucking mosquitos. Except those mosquitos are the 3 types of people... narcissists and the mentally ill wanting to cause harm to someone to vent... the privileged who have never worked a job where their patience was tested...the physically ill who are in pain and cannot serve themselves.... Thinking of it this way saved my sanity because I realized that patient, sane, healthy down to earth people typically serve themselves and make up a minority of people drawn to retail, hotel and restaurnt. I pretend my restaurant is like a hospital cafeteria, it is not my duty to argue with anyone who is sick or to change someone's mindset. Im not here to prove anything to anyone, because not even a doctor can cure their ignorance. .. however, i can give them the food and make money which is what it all boils down to. 😉

I think once the customer gets verbally abusive and calling people "moron" they have crossed a line. A person can very well be frustrated - who hasn't. We all know what it feels like when a business makes mistakes etc. But once a line is crossed to harassment and bullying , the customer can go outside and find a pile of rocks to kick.

I just tell them what they want to hear and say everything is going to be alright . Which it really will , but sometimes there are processes and systems in place that take longer than what the cx wants and you can only do so much especially when you have limited resources at the customer facing Level. So yes listen let them vent and if you know deep down you won't be able to resolve the issue on the spot . Tell them what they want to hear assure everything will be alright and bail while still doing what they ask it will just take longer . I personally am not going to be a punching bag for them anymore.

When the customer left and didn't pay, but the food was being prepared, is that considered a loss? When the customer is intentionally breaking glassware, is that cosidered a loss? Should restaurants have bodyguards and good security no matter how small it is because waiters can't act like bodyguards because it's not their role?

I work at the tills and I had a customer out of nowhere gave me a hard time, he was rude, entitled, patronizing and sarcastic (more so than the average customer) all while I was trying to be nice (I even gave him a free bag cause our carrier bags are expensive and really poor quality and he had quite a lot of heavy stuff). All throughout as I was processing the stuff he bought, I swear he was trying to get me mad or get a reaction or something. What can I do? I wanted to give a comeback so bad but I'm still on provasion lol. But also just made the situation worse. Its so disheartening working when you have to deal with people like that but hey that's life for ya, full of a hols and d heads.

It's really distasteful of them though. Even if there's an actual valid concern, there should always be a level of politeness when addressing the workers/employees of any establishment. It creates an environment of equality and it helps the people servicing to find solutions. Venting that includes cursing and insults to the workers, should never be welcome no matter the mistake. If the worker is expected to be professional, so does the costumer in order for work and transactions to go smoothly. It's not a power game, it's not therapy sessions for clients/costumers, it's a professional transaction and personal feelings should be addressed in a better manner.
