Customers? Not Always Right [Thursday, May 16, 2013]

"Hey there," Josh said, leaning against the counter at the front of a McDonald's restaurant, "and welcome to the Danger Shop. This is your summer workshop on customer service." He gestured to a table where they would find hats, hairnets, and shirts with their names on them. "Please turn off your cell phones, put on your extremely attractive new outfits and get behind the counters."

Once the students had done so, Josh gave them a brief tutorial on how to make the cash registers work, then smiled a little fiendishly. "Good," he said, heading over to the controls of the Danger Shop. "Let's add some customers. You're on the lunch rush starting....now."

And dozens of customers in all shapes and sizes flooded into the restaurant.

"Sure," Mercy said, with no idea of whether or not they actually did. "Probably?"

"Are they free range?"

Potatoes. Yep.

Mercy blinked, then said with a completely straight face, "I can absolutely guarantee you that no one's potatoes are more free range than ours."

"Okay," the customer said. "And I want to order breakfast."

It was an hour past breakfast time.

"Of course," Mercy said. "May I recommend our wonderful breakfast chicken sandwich?"

She would not roll her eyes. She would not roll her eyes.

"Is it organic chicken?" the customer asked fretfully.

Organic. Well... technically, all living things were organic, so...

"Of course. We wouldn't serve anything else with ou free-range potatoes."
