I'm cautious of sounding like a Self-Help book; because, I'm getting help from being myself. I'm learning that who I am really is eneough. If I write, orginality comes out. If I relax and talk to people they are welcomed. When I use my smile and bubbliness to serve people around me they respond.
Why?
Well I think in 2010 people are truly looking for people that still give a shit. ( I apolize for my language; but, seriously what other words can have that affect.) Wheather its in a coffee shop, airport, clothing store or a movie theatre. Where are the people that return wallets? Personally, walk you through hard buying experiences? Open the door for you when a taxi pulls up? We hear stories after stories about the bad stuff. Kids dying, people left out in the trash or being washed up. Television is consumed with crime shows, dramatic sitcoms and reality shows. Where is the good in this rough society.
That is why I love working in Retail. I have the oppurtunity to redefine Customer Service for one person every day. Maybe, the customer isn't always right; however, they do deserve a smile and a "What are you up today?" No questions or actions solely to increase business or for that extra commission. I want interactions with people to make a differnce.
Again, this isn't a refernce quote or part of my resume. If I could get a employer to believe this prior to the interview....I would! This is usually how it goes....Uhhhh only 2 months in retail; not eneough experience. Now I have two jobs that involve customers and I'm happy to do whatI love....Impact people.
