Very private people have mastered the art of telling you little about themselves but doing it in such a way you think you know a lot

[unofficialghost]

little things that make me fall 4 people

having a nickname for me (not necessarily a mushy romantic one) 

using my name in conversation 

complimenting something I’m not super fond of about myself 

sending me pictures of stuff that reminds you of me 

listening to my music

recommending music to me

picking up little phrases I use and starting to use them

If you think that Leslie’s reaction to meeting Michelle Obama is any different to what your reaction would be, you’re just lying to yourself.

Truth

[punlich]

One time I used my retail voice on a coworker and she was like, “Don’t use your customer voice on me, I know you’re dead inside like the rest of us, it’s just frightening and weird”

[1980sbusinesswoman]

The other day I asked for a table for two in my customer voice and the waitress squinted at me and I cleared my throat and said “Sorry, still in service mode” and she dropped hers and we swapped stories about our day and my boyfriend was like “You two just became two entirely different people in like .5 seconds…”

[gritsinmisery]

I can be bitching up a blue streak about a customer-from-hell while the store is empty, and when the phone rings swap over to my retail voice practically in mid-sentence. I even have managers and salespeople from other stores in the chain fooled into thinking I’m infinitely friendly and helpful, and my manager’s husband thinks I’m one of the most professional people in the store. One assistant manager’s daughter dubbed me Perky-Pants because she mostly dealt with me over the phone, and was shocked to the core when I dropped an F-bomb at her graduation picnic.

The acting required in the service industry is beyond the pale. My cousin freaked out when she came to see me at work because I was all smiling and nice while helping someone who was asking inane questions and who basically forced me to walk them to the product and put it in their fucking hand but I was nice as pie until I turned around to walk away and my demeanor changed back to normal and I muttered “what a fucking moron” under my breath as I got back to my cousin. She just looked at me shocked and said “no wonder you’re so exhausted when you get home.”

this is actually referred to as emotional labor in criminology, and is considered one of the hardest forms of labor

The art of bullshit is strong in the service industry

Put this in the history books

[blackismyhappycolourcausefackyou]

‘Do you believe in god?’, he asked me. I shook my head and saw the disappointment in his eyes. ‘I may not believe in god’, I said ‘but i do believe in some; I believe in lucky charms and zodiac signs. I believe that we all have our place in the stars and that that’s the place everyone of us comes from. I believe in love and the good in people. I believe in hell and the devil but also forgiveness. I believe in you and me and that this can work out. I believe it will.’

We may not have a lot of things in common. But we may discover some new things together (via blackismyhappycolourcausefackyou)
