Have a Bad Day Day   Having been on both ends of customer service this day I resonate with. Bad Customer Service isn't always the fault of the customer service rep. Sometimes it is instigated by the, wait for it, customer. *GASP* Newsflash : the customer is not always right. Now, that being said if the customer is wrong it doesn't warrant poor behavior from the customer service rep.  To quote Rodney King, "Can't we all just get along?" Both customer and customer service rep need to behave, to remember their manners, and to extend civilities. Maybe You Get Bad Customer Service Because You're a Bad Customer It is a huge pet peeve of mine when customers act like jerks and treat the person trying to help them like dirt because of some false entitlement that they are "always" right.

I couldn't come back to it in 2015 the way it was.  I gave myself a space of time that had a hard time limit and got everything done I wanted to plus a little more!  It's because I had a time I needed to be done by so it made me focus in and get the job done.  The time limit also helped me from indecision.  I didn't linger over anything, just made the decision and moved on.  In 40 minutes my desk and drawers were done and I walked out of my cube for the last time in ...
