the Easter 'break' is over.......
Not sure how many of you have worked in an office before or any customer facing job ...
Last week one fo the customers said to me 'You won't know yourself' - he mentioned something about the long weekend - ....what he was really saying is 'You never leave the counter - never see you take any holidays'.......
strange thing to say - where do they get these weird expressions from - 'know yourself' - what does that mean???
Not true - I was away in January but he probably didn't notice ....
What do they expect ? Do they want me to 'disappear' for a couple of months in October or November
or some other time ?
Work is work - I have to work.....
Today another bloke - not a customer - one of the reps - reckoned it was 'nice' I think that was what he said that we closed from Friday to Monday....
For me I was at home most of the time and I had some digestive problems and a sore neck - ongoing problem
If I had to work on Monday I would work..if I had to work on Friday I would work - if they paid me
lot more though 🙂 3 times what I normally get per hour
There was one customer who asked me how the break was I told him I didn't go anywhere...
The good thing is I reckon no one will mention it anymore..hopefully not
This sort of thing happens every year - some people make comments other people don't
I like the people who don't ask anything personal
Anyone have the same feeling?
