- Now hear this, now hear this -

Announcement number one of two:

There is only one serving of shepherd's pie left. If you would like shepherd's pie, please let me know. I may make another if there is sufficient interest.

I arrived at work today 11 minutes late, and I wasn't wearing a name tag, because I lost my sister's name tag, which I have been using for about a month. (My sister used to work with me) I don't think my manager was mad; infact, he may not have even noticed... Our conversation was confusing.
Announcement number two of two:

When I worked in retail, we kept a spare name tag in a drawer near one of the cash registers. If you forgot your name tag, your name was "Donovan" for the day.

That is all.

I wish we did that. I'd like to be named Donovan...

It was funny though, because I had been wearing my sister's nametag, and her name is Emily. Some customers like to look at your nametag and pretend they know you, and it was hillarious, because they'd call me "Emily" like they knew me, but that isn't my name. :D

Reminds me of something they had us do: supposedly because they wanted to make the customers feel like they had a "relationship" with the store, they told us to use their name as much as possible, and to get the name by checking their credit card, e.g. "thank you Mr./Ms. ______. Enjoy your CD player/camera/whatever."

It didn't really work, though. Usually, they'd get weirded out for a second ("hey - how does this stranger know my name?"), then realize what had gone on ("oh... that stranger was just really paying attention to my credit card. I wonder if he was trying to remember anything on it besides my name."), and was more off-putting than relationship-building.



Announcement:

If you do have an actual relationship or rapport with a customer, great. If you don't, don't pretend like you do.

That is all.

Yeah... they do that at my bank. They read my check and say, "Have a nice day, Hannah." :D

But I'd prefer that they didn't... I know that they don't actually remember me, and I don't like them pretending that they know me.

Safeway does that too. I used to get weirded out by it, now it's just annoyance that nobody ever proounces my name correctly.

Attention to all.


I had jury duty today but did not get picked. I do not have to go tomorrow but still have to call in until next week. My butt and back hurts from the seats and admit that I miss working.

Thank You.
