ya right!

i really wanna meet the person who created that statement la. they’re NOT always right. most of the time, they’re WRONG, but since we are nice people providing services for these &^%$£*!, we ALWAYS have to PRETEND they’re right. sad huh? i’m a customer too, so i know when i’m right or when i’m wrong. i know i’m right when the person serving me shows muka tak boleh blah even though i haven’t even ask for anything yet. i know i’m wrong when i suddenly change the order or whatnots when he/she has already put it through the till so if he/she show muka tak boleh blah then, i totally understand. if you want good service, people, you gotta be a good customer as well ok? to be a good customer, these are the things you SHOULD NOT do :

(1) do not, i repeat, DO NOT, pretend like you’re the one doing the job. (even though you’re also working the same job elsewhere, but when you’re ordering, you’re the customer ok!) which means, don’t tell your friend this : “see, now she’s gonna pour it into the measurer and she’s not gonna fill it to the top and then she’s gonna squeeze the lime using her hands blablabla.” i’m not deaf. i’m not stupid. i can hear you dammit. whatever i’m doing, it’s cos am told to do so. and i didn’t get paid by you, so lemme do my job the way it’s supposed to be.

(2) if you’re not blind, take a look around. it is THAT busy and the person working only have two hands so don’t get so impatient and angry when he/she couldn’t serve you. just be patient cos eventually he/she would definitely serve you. it’s just a matter of time. if you don’t like waiting, go somewhere else that doesn’t require you waiting. (please tell me where, cos everywhere you go, you’d still have to wait.)

(3) MAKE UP YOUR MIND! if you’re at a bar/restaurant/cafe/any eating place, don’t order A at first and suddenly ask “can i change to B instead?” especially after he/she has put it through the till, cos you’re just gonna make his/her life more difficult with the kitchen people ok.

(4) if you’re not satisfied with the price or quality or whatever product the service is all about, don’t blame the people serving you. lemme tell you this again, they’re just doing their job according to instructions given. go complain at the customer’s feedback form or something.

(5) not ALL people working as bar staffs or waitresses or sales assistants are stupid and poor ok? so don’t give us that look like as if we’re wayyyyy below your level. most of us are doing it just to get EXTRA cash.  we won’t starve to death without your money ok? some of us even do it just to pass time.

i can’t think of anymore right now. will continue part 2 if i can think of some more. the conclusion here is, i really hate this phrase as of right now. customers are not always right ok! sometimes i think they purposely do anything cos they know they are govern (eh not govern, but i can’t think of the word right now.) by that stupid statement. if you’ve never had any experience providing services to customers before, which means you’re always a customer, try putting yourself in these people’s shoes. they’ve got feelings too you know.
