“The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned.” – Maya Angelou
What’s it like every time you go to the store? Are you treated rudely? Are you ignored? If you order something from the deli, does it always look like crap? Have they purposely overcharged you, and then you had to return to the store to get your money back? Every time I go to any grocery store that’s the type of treatment I’ve gotten. I do not want to lose my temper, so I say nothing.
But one day, I had some time, while waiting for the bus, to read my receipt. I usually don’t pay any attention to what it says on the receipt, except to make sure that the right change has been given to me. And on the receipt it usually says something about customer feedback. Well, I decided I had enough b.s. from the sales people. So I got on my computer and gave the company my feedback. I answered all the questions asked.
Today, I went back to the same store and its deli section. Well, to my amazement, the store clerks could not do enough to help me. I got taken care of right away. When my food was given to me, it didn’t look like crap. And I wasn’t overcharged for anything. What a change in behavior! So getting on the computer worked its magic. Some one at the top must have let the store know it wasn’t happy with how their employees were behaving.
If you’re being treated like crap, get on the computer and answer the company’s feedback form. Written words still have their magic. I’ve called the company several times and talked to customer service, and I’ve never gotten any satisfaction. But my written words of complaint had power. The written word is still very potent.
Don’t let anyone treat you like dirt because you’re a T.I. You deserve to be treated with respect as everyone is. Don’t let the gang stalkers get away with anything.
