That’s what happens when you use all the good words
They always give you a lazy look before they say, “Do you want a bag with that?”
I’ll admit, often I don’t want a bag. Like if I’m at a book store. I’m just going to shove whatever book I bought into my purse. However, if I’m at the grocery store, I’m gonna want a bag for my 15 items.
At what point did customer service get so lazy? How much work is involved in putting my purchases in a bag? Hardly any.
I thought it was part of the covenant that we make with the store when we agree to buy their merchandise. I give them money and they give me a bag to put the item in.
Unless I expressly say I don’t want a bag.
I tried that argument on the bonehead at the CVS the other day. All I got was a blank stare.
Ava said I lost him at “covenant”.
Sigh.
Customer service? What’s that? We went to get pizza tonight. The total was $10.81 I gave the clerk $21.01 expecting to get back a $10 bill and two dimes. He proceeded to try and give me $9.20. It took a couple of minutes to get it worked out. (I guess he entered $20.01 into his register, instead of $21.01, but it shouldn’t have mattered. He could still have given me $10.20 and the cash drawer would have been right in the end, regardless of what he entered for the transaction. Enter a manager….) When did simple math become so difficult for the mainstream? I could figure out this sort of change transaction when I was 5 years old.
Don’t even get me started on trying to get correct change back. ***eyeroll***
