post # 1

Like those who I saw in the film Wal*Mart: The High Cost of a Low Price and reading the book Nickel and Dimed by Barbara Ehrenreich, I work in the service industry trying to cater to people.

A day at work in my position pretty much non-stop you are dealing with different people with specific requests and all different types of personalities, moods, and attitudes. I am to provide legendary service to these people who are paying at least two dollars for a small cup of starbucks coffee. I am to make connections with customers while keeping the line moving steady. That's damn near impossible. Working in the service industry and meeting the company's standards in terms of satisfying the customers is IMPOSSIBLE.
