Working Smarter, Not Harder
Bookstore | Fairbanks, AK, USA
(I am a girl working the customer service counter. A male customer comes up with eerily direct eye contact.)
Me: “Hello, how can I help you?”
Customer: “I would like books on seduction.”
Me: “All right. If you follow me, I’ll show you to our relationship section.”
(I walk him over to the section.)
Customer: “I want books on seduction.”
Me: “Well, here is ‘relationships’ and on the other side of the aisle are the more intimate books. So between those I believe you can find what you’re looking for.”
Customer: “All right, I’ll look at these.”
(I return to the customer service desk. The customer returns a few minutes later.)
Me: “Anything else I can help you with?”
Customer: “Do you have any books on hypnosis?”
Me: “…”
