Today being the first day back in class because of the storm, I expected the teachers to freak out about how much time we have missed but in all acutality one of my teachers canceled a test we were supposed to have! Also, my World Civ teacher for who I am not very fond for, she told us today that all the stuff that we have done up to this point she is just going to drop and it is kinda like we are going to be starting like a fresh new semester! I mean I was very baffled when ever she said that to us because this teacher had struck me as on that would really stick it to you!! But I guess I assumed wrong...
Also, about a month ago, a man came into work and I sold him a $500 color handheld GPS. Well he came in today wanting to return it because he said he didn't use it, but infact when I turned it on he had put a bunch of fishing spots in it and had taken it on a couple of trips! Of course I couldn't say anything that would denote him as a liar but that out raged me. So, I returned it and gave him a gift certificate back from our store and he started getting really pissed off because he wanted cash back! There is no way that we can give a customer $500 straight out of our door! It is against company policy! So we ended up hashing it out for 15 minutes with him geting up in my face. I never have this happen to me because I am a very nice salesperson but to be honest he was pretty much white trash. So eventually I was able to get him off of me and he said fine...and just walked out. Like I said before having the customer happy is the key to running a successful business but at the same time if you always bend over backwards they are going to keep breaking your back. There has to be a limit to everything.
But on a side note that is a continuation of my last post, my girl friend came over last night and ate dinner with my parrents. It seemed successful but there are still things between us that still need to be worked out.....but I will ponder more on this and dictate later...
