You know the kind you find in the best Local Computer shops, or the Finest tailors or Shoe makers. I mean seriously excellent Bad Service involves making the customer feel happy about the fact that they have just been insulted and in someway even though they may not know exacly how, but they don't care and are actually happy about the service in some sublime manner. This is because they know the person looking after them is professional and even though they don't like serving customers and aren't afraid to display it, doesn't mean they are going to do bad job. In fact they will do the best job they can -- they know they are so good they CAN be rude to clients AND get away with it because 1) The customers are always satisfied with the service or 2) they are so good at thier job that the company can't afford to get rid of them. <br /><br />Now, finding staff that are 'professionally rude' - now that's something unique you should look out for, isn't it? There's a *really* corny saying that kind of summarises all this: You can't have a rainbow without the rain. ;-)Eugene Szlamphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09717167953882162500noreply@blogger.com
