I'm a good customer; however, I suck at customer service. Customers are usually obnoxious.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

I've been working in retail or restaurants for the past 4 years so I know how annoying customers can be. That's why I behave really well and never complain.

Having been a waiter for a very long time, I treat my own kind very well.

If all customers were like me, serving customers would be heaven.
And I'm not boasting. I rarely complain. If I don't like the service, I simply won't return. Why give the person a hard time?

In my case, you'll have to ask me what I think of customers... they're f**king annoying 90% of the time.
In music stores i'm very nice.

once I saw things from the retail perspective, I became more sympathetic. In particular, small businesses are lucky to break even.

I'm well-behaved, unless they try to rip me off or push me around. It bugs me when I see customers chewing out a shop employee for something that's totally beyond their control, though.

Being born with a typical English reticence to cause a scene I generally try and control myself, after all the shop assistant has to deal with dozens of idiots like me every day and gets paid pennies for their trouble. (Yeah, I worked in retail when I was younger - how could you tell?)
Shop managers are fair game though.
