Yup, shock horror, end times must be upon us but one of my favourite customers is moving out of the area soon.
Oh yes, despite what you may believe, I do have some customers that I can not just tolerate but actually like.
The main reason for me liking this customer is the large volume of mail he brings in. Granted this is tempered somewhat as it means I've got a lot of extra work to do but a good amount of his packages are special delivery which is a nice little earner for me.
Another reason why I like this customer is that he's actually stayed loyal to the post office and I'm gonna stick my neck out here and say that that's due to the excellent service we provide him. If he's got a couple of sackfuls of mail and he's in a hurry then we'll take 'em in and get 'em done while he's off doing important/more interesting things than standing around in the queue.
Unusually, I actually appreciate his rudeness too. Now, I'll give you a moment for that to sink in. I'll have to qualify that as it's not just your common or garden rude rudeness. It's generally well humoured, friendly and amusing banter. Also, he's quite happy for us to give as good as we get. It's very refreshing to be able to be rude to a customers face instead of just slagging them off as soon as they're out of earshot or writing about them on this blog.
So, I'd just like to say thank-you to this customer (assuming that he reads this blog, hopefully most of my customers don't) and if you're reading this and it's still Wednesday them pop in to see me and there may be a small token of my appreciation waiting for you (and I'm not just referring to a tirade of swearing, although he deserves that too).
Normal service will be resumed in the next post.
