Twitter Users Share the Most Ridiculous Demands They Have Ever Received from Customers
The customer is DEFINITELY NOT always right
Working in the service industry can feel like an uphill battle. As Dr. Susan David, an emotional agility expert, states, "The ability to manage our emotions and navigate difficult situations is crucial in high-stress environments." This is especially true when faced with disrespectful customers, as service workers often have to maintain a polite demeanor despite being treated poorly. The notion that "the customer is always right" is a myth, as Dr. Dan Ariely, a behavioral economist, points out: "People are not always rational, and expecting them to be can lead to unrealistic demands." Recently, Twitter user Dr. Susan David asked people to share "the most ridiculous demand a customer has made of them," resulting in a collection of responses that might just restore your faith in the absurdity of human behavior.
