That was good timing. Hopefully he will eventually learn some tact, manners, and customer service. -
Screw them good for you. !!!!!!!
Clerks at resturants, stores, and in my case banks have no business asking personal questions unless they are being coversational and friendly. and theres a LINE you do not cross.
Screw em!
Now I'm mad !!!! ( wheres that smily that turns into a hulk? We NEED a smiley that turns into a HULK!!!!)< at least this one has green hair, use your imagination.

Customer service is a dying art. I expect it to be extinct in the next 5-10 years.

From what I can tell, the clerk really got what was coming to him.

If you think that's bad, over the Summer I attended a friendly soccer match between A.C. Milan and Chelsea.
The person taking our tickets was a teenage African American and asked "Why are you paying money to watch n's kick a ball around a field?"
I was stunned and speechless. I asked my wife if she heard what I think he said and her response was "yes...probably just aching to get a reaction out of you so it was good that you ignored him and avoided a scene.""The farther we go, the more the ultimate explanation recedes from us, and all we have left is faith."

Currently I'm flat out amazed at what has happen to the service industry in the Pacific Northwest. I've had too many customers ask me why, if jobs are so hard to come by in today's economy, do we have so many service people who don't have a clue about what they are doing. "I'm only willing to give you the minimal service I have to. By the way, you know what tipping is don't you?" "I don't just accept tips, I expect them as mandatory."
I believe it is a backlash of the "privileged customer" attitude. During the 80s and 90s too many people decided they deserved more than others. All they had to do was hold out satisfaction and not be too easy to please. It worked over and over again. A new standard had been established."Two dollars and it only transports matter...I don't know."
This works best with big companies. Not small businesses, they tend to use the "right to refuse service" more than a big company would allow even a manager to. Before I left Seattle, I had a customer who always waited for me. I didn't know it at the time, but he had gone through the other seven barbers and none of them were willing to work on him anymore. He was always impatient, used descriptive terms like "you know" and "like last time". From the second haircut he expected me to remember what he wanted and was always disappointed when I didn't. Around the tenth time, he got all mad at me over this issue. I explained that he didn't owe me anything for the haircut and that I was no longer interested in being his barber. I told him to feel free to wait for anyone else, but any attempt to wait for me, would be a waste of his time. This sent him over the edge! He was a local business owner (copy center) and extra privileged customer. He could fire me, but I was not allowed to quit. After all, sitting in my chair, made him my employer. I asked him how many copy would he make for a customer at no cost just trying to get one perfect enough to sell. He just glared at me without answer. I told him, if this was an example of how he treats his employees, I felt sorry for his employees. He stormed out of the shop, and came back the next day to talk to the owner and attempt to get me fired. Only problem with his plan was that the owner was one of the barbers who did not want him as a customer. Even when the sign was clear that his attitude was costing him more than he wanted, he was not willing to change it.Comment

You want to know whats difficult?
Try getting a COMPLIMENT through customer service. I try to be a nice guy and I know how hard LOTS of different jobs can be.
I told a waiter at a Buffet once the steak was really good and he freaked out and brought the manager over all freaked out.
As for the haircut thing. I notice the Great Clips people ask for my phone number and they know exactlly how to cut it right down to what buzzer to use. It's all in the computer. THAT freaked ME out.
Looking for a new barber . . . .
