Default Why did everyone act surprised when Shirley got fired?

The only one NOT surprised was Dee, and she was totally right when she told Raj and the guys that you don't talk to customers the way that Shirley did to the man who was really trying to give Rob a loan. Regardless if the man was not a real customer, it's not for Shirley to be rude to any customer. She didn't know who he was, and it shouldn't matter. I like how Dee said it out loud that Shirley was wrong.

Yeah, I hate to agree with Dee, but you don't talk to a customer like that. I worked in retailing and the customer is top priority. In real life, Shirley wouldn't have lasted 1 day at that job. LOL

I think Shirley was more irritated by him being a suit on top of being picky about what he wanted. You have to remember she wasn;t used to serving a customer like that. But She still should have been a little nicer

Even though Shirley was wrong, she was hired as that kind of waitress. She was use to dealing with teenagers. It was proven that the high school kids are what kept Rob in business and they loved Shirley.

Default Shirley had her reasons...

Even though technically Shirley was wrong to be outright rude and pushy towards that banker customer (and some others along the way), in Rob's Place, I'm very sure that she had her reasons for being irritated...
After all, that banker WAS kinda nerdy and uptight! (THINK about it)
He'd get on a MAGGOT's nerves...

Yea but you dont treat customers like that. And it wasnt just the banker, she was rude to everyone.

Is your life that boring that you have to reply to a thread started in 2005?

You are talking to people who are no longer on the site. why is that so hard for you ton understand? Try starting a thread of your own for 2011 instead of digging up anicent threads started by people who are no longer on the site.

Why do you think these threads are still here for? If a current member wants to respond to my post, good, if not, so be it. Theres no sense having 4 or 5 threads talking about the same subject. Is that hard for you to understand?
