crack up the clerk is my favorite hobby. [View all]
probably a sign that i spend too much time alone, but i make it a point to get a smile or a laugh out of the ppl i interact w 1 on 1, whether at the cash register, on the phone w customer service, or dealing w healthcare ppl.
so, i had to get a mammo last week. walk up to the desk.
lovely older lady- what can we do for you?
me-(cracking up in advance, cuz i cant believe the straight line) squeeze my titties.
she stayed in professional mode, but couldnt help chuckling.
the rest of the encounter was conducted w smiles on both sides.
its my fave hobby. i esp do it when im complaining, cuz those ppl have a hard enough job.
i had an hour long call w tmobile a while back. it got very chatty, cuz her system was slow.
at the end of these encounters, i usually thank ppl for laughing, and tell them its my hobby. but i had so much fun w this lady in the phillipines, i made her promise to pass it on. to share w her coworkers that she had a GOOD call.
i think of it as being an anti-karen. i figure we need that.
im making this long winded post to remind myself to post the good 1s here. i think about it, then forget.
im sure the folks in this forum do their share of this, but i think its good to be intentional about it.
