How Not to do Customer Service

Posted by Becky Carroll on September 27th, 2007

grocery-store.jpg This week, I spoke on customer service tips and best practices at CasinoFest IV in San Diego with Phil Wesel of MEI.  We shared this fun “how not to do customer service” video with the audience, and it is great for a laugh.  The setting is a grocery store employee training friends on how to get out of work.

      Notice how the guy who approaches him is in a fraternity…so I’m not surprised.

      I noticed that. Do you think the reaction would have been different if it wasn’t someone from a fraternity? ;-)

      I love this stuff. What a great way to make a point in reverse. Definitely keep these coming!

      Glad to have you chime in on this, Scott! It does make a point, doesn’t it? Thanks for the feedback. :-)
