I went in earlier tp buy dinner for my wife and I, and was really impressed with her level of customer service and friendliness, but I didn't want to say anything in front of the other customers, so I drove home.

I called the store when I got home, and asked if I could speak to the manager. I was told that the manager wasn't there, but that I could leave a message instead. So I told whoever it was I was speaking to about this girl and her amazing service, and was met with sobbing at the other end of the line.

I asked if I had said something wrong, and she said "No, that was me who served you. I am just so pleased that you went out of your way to give me some feedback, it's really made my day because I'm only new at the job". She also told me that she's basically taken on a job to improve her self-confidence and self-esteem (it sounds like she had a rough upbringing), and that she's had a few rude customers.

I think that if you experience extra good service from someone, you should let them know they're appreciated.

That is brilliant... Great form mate

Cheers mate, it just goes to show that the nicest people out there have insecurities too. She was a really nice girl, and deserved the credit.

Nice work Failed Creation - everyone is too quick to complain nowdays but not give credit where it's due.

On a side note - I received a phone call from CMI Toyota today requesting feedback on my service experience on Tuesday.

I think the poor girl was sorry she called :lol:

Now that's good form too. If someone's service is below par, they also deserve that feedback. They can then use that to improve at their job, or disregard it and lose customers...

Working alongside a cranky older female sales rep whos filling in for the guy I usually share an office with while hes away.

Shes a nice little lady until she opens her mouth and unleashes profanities about each and every thing that she does. I used to be a bit intimidated by her, until I told her to "**** off" the first time. Now we just have screaming matches about everything. It really does get me through the day. :lol:

Unfortunately todays the last day of her sharing an office with me, so Im going to make the most of it...

Another funny thing is she says the F word about 40 times an hour, but if I accidently drop the C bomb ONCE im in trouble for being vulgar :lol:
