| Customer service. Almost everyone works in it at one point or another and know how a job in the field is. The stress that is heaped on you as an hourly(and in this economy its even more...they fire you for anything!!), the strange hours that keep you up late at one end of the week and get you up early at the other end, and the worst...dealing with hundreds of customers a day. Hundreds of people from nice to mean, from mellow to angry...everyone who has worked in a job like this know how stressful just the customers can be. Now everyone knows that you have to handle this. Why do people find it needed to make it worst. In todays life cell phones are so very common and we use them constantly. Its how we stay connected, keep our schedules, and a multitude of other things. But cell phones...they have thier time and place. And it most certainly is not when you are at the regesister. I can not tell you how many times I have had someone come up to my register on thier phone or blue tooth. There are times when it is understandable, like when a construction/trades work is getting a job name to assigned to the recipt. But there many more times when this is not acceptable. Like the other day a man carried out a whole conversation about kids movies...what ones he like...and not, his favorite character...and the whole time he ignored me. This is one of the most annoying parts of my job of customer service. | | |
| There are decisions in your life that will change it forever...in ways that will alter it in unfeasible ways. And when you make these choices it is inevitable that you will hurt someone. Hurting someone is the worst part, you know that no matter what you do you will hurt someone and it rips at your heart. It hurts you deeper then anything else does knowing that you will hurt someone you love. And once you choose...once the decision is known to those you love, the pain you you see that you have inflicted on the person that you love it tears at you. Like a hole in your heart that each time you think of it it seems to burn, sting or throb a little more till you you can not take...can not stand to feel it. Knowing that the pain I'm in...the bottomless hole that exudes endless amounts of pain is nothing compared to their pain. Its...a most horrible pain knowing this. Knowing that I have done this to someone that I love more than almost anyone. And being unable to fully explain my decision to anyone, including no...especially the one that I hurt the most, its hard and it hurts exponentially. I want to fix it but...I can't. And i know this, and its so hard and the hole...it hurts...and i cry. More often then not when I think of the pain that I inflicted...I cry. I can't stop it either it just happens...and i don't know what to do. | | |

| I was 4 years old living on an Air Force Base in Denver Colorado, it was a day after christmas(which i dont remember at all) and my new tric was sitting by the front door, calling to me to ride it. But there was too much snow on the ground outsid to ride. It would have to sit there for a few weeks at best. But me, being the brilliant child i was, decided that that was not soon enough and i would ride in the house. There was a problem though...there was no space to ride it. It was a tiny two story town house. But i had a solution, so I grabbed my new tric and carried it up the stairs. I made a lot of noise bringing it up but miraculosly my parents didnt respond to it was just a thump, pause, tump, pause, nothing to worry about. I got tot the landing just befor the stairs turned and went up a few more steps to the top landing but i stayed on this one. Turned my bike down the stairs, sat down and started peddling, Now this was not a very long staircase but i was barley down 5 steps when my dad saw me. Just before i hit the wall at the end of the stairs he plucked me off that thing. I was a crazy child.
I just answered this Featured Question; you can answer it too! | | |
| When does a person fully know if the decisons they made in the past are the right desicions? How do you know that that decison that was so hard, or even so easy was the right one to make. That easy or hard decision may have changed your life and how can you know if it was the right choice before you can no longer fix it. Does it have to go the point of no return before you know if you made the right choice? Or can you figure it out before then and change it, make ammends, change your mind, make it right. What if either way you took it was the right way, well not the right way but either choice ended in your happiness, how do you know that one wouldnt make you happier than the other one would? These are not original questions...they are not original thoughts by any means but this is time for me to express them. In 2 weeks i could know when my life will change forever.Ill have an exact date of when it will change. I just am scared, its time to voice these questions... | | |
