I used to work service, and having people to talk to generally made the day much better. I definitely had favorite customers, and what do you know, it was typically people who were social.
I currently work in retail, please just tell me what you want, pay for it, and GTFO. I have significantly more important tasks to do than chit chat.
Geez, I hope they're not putting you front of counter.
Either amusingly or sadly, honestly, I still haven't decided which, I am my store's top earner and am considered a solid keyholder to the point I am regularly sent to go help out other stores of their messes.
Well, that doesn't necessarily require a keen bedside manner.
You say sadly. Do you... like your job? I know it can't always be helped, but I do hope you find a way to move into something better, if there is such a thing. My service job was almost a decade of my life, and I was sooo glad to leave when I was finally given an exit.
There are many aspects of my job that I do enjoy, but I think after over a decade in service jobs, I would either prefer a job or that isn't customer facing, or at least in phone support so I don't have to expend energy on face-to-face conversations.
Yeah, that makes sense. A decade is a long time to be doing something, especially if that thing wasn't quite the right fit to begin with.
