Three crucial facts for customers.
So let's see... I've covered a few subjects now... I've punched holes in my mom's logic, blasted managers and their willing lack of individuality.... and now it's time for another topic.
Let's not delay shall we?
But first, I need some cooperation. Anyone reading this, my friends, people I don't even know... whoever... you're all customers of some business at some point. So this goes out to you. I now understand this fact, and I must share it, for its importance is great. So all of you, as customers, I want you to close all your IM's and other windows, turn off the TV, and put away anything that may be distracting you. This is that important. Are you ready?
Here we go. The fact is this - to you, the customer:
1. YOU ARE NOT GOD.
Yes, you heard me right. You are not God. Too many customers swagger into some store thinking that they are the greatest thing ever to grace the place with their presence. Some stores, like Wal*Mart... prime example... enhance this fact. And the associates get the shaft, because we are far inferior to you customers. (note sarcasm.) The only thing that seperates you from us is a flimsy uniform. Too many times I have seen hapless associates who, for fear of their meager-paying (albeit crucial) job being taken away, must remain completely silent while enduring vicious verbal abuse well beyond the normal human limitation. I've had customers say things to me that would constitute a well placed right hook to the jaw, and have been unable to retaliate at all. I have had a customer accuse me of raping children because of the movie theater concession stand prices (which, by the way, I think are grossly overpaid, but people still buy them!) when I didn't even write the prices! Which brings me to my next point.
This is gonna be a real shocker.
2. You, the customer, ARE NOT always right.
Whoever came up with this saying should be shot in the face at point blank range with a 10-gauge. Mind you, with a 10-gauge, there'd be no face left. This saying is seiously the most insanely idiotic thing I've ever heard in my life. A retarded monkey with half a jaw could say something of more intelligence than this. If customers are always right, then a customer could walk into a store and claim that he is the half-blood prince of Latveria and demand a discount. Mind you, Latveria's not a real country. You, customer, are not always right - matter of fact, you're mostly never right, like most people. You are just a person.
My final point is this.
3. The company DOES NOT exist to serve you. YOU exist TO SERVE the company.
That's what corporate America means. It's run and owned by corporations. Think about it. Does nobody realize this but me? It's not all about you. It's all about the corporations and how much money they can suck up in order to become a huge, pulsating blemish in this already revolting society. All customers are unwitting pawns in this nightmarish, tyrannical system. These corporations say these things to make you feel like you're in charge. You walk into some place and you think "Oh, I am so important. This place exists only to serve my needs. If I'm not happy when I walk out the door, oh they'll pay." Guess what. They won't. They try to keep you happy, yes. Just so you keep coming back, and spending more and more money to go straight into their XXL-size wallets. And in reality, they care not a single iota about you as a person, as an individual. They only care about your money. If they can't keep you happy, they really don't care. They have billions of other unwitting customers just like yourself to leech off of. It's all a front. Don't you get it? They don't say these things because they're true. They same them because that's what they need to say to keep you blissfully unaware of what's really going on. It's not "All about the customer." it's all about keeping the customer blinded by catchy slogans that make them feel important as a person, when in reality, it's all about the customer's money.
So remember these things the next time you walk into a store. These corporations can't be avoided... but take heart. One day, this society will be judged, and will burn in the fires of hell - where it belongs.
