I work at BJ’s Brewhouse in Greenwood. I work there as a server, selling yummy food and good spirits. Sometimes when things go wrong we have customers who do not always act professional. Late night I had a lady who, at the end of her meal, had a problem with her bill. As I started to help her she proceeded to tell me I did not mention the promotion we had going on, and instead of letting me talk she started making noises at me.…
While working at CVS Pharmacy I’ve experienced bad and good communication with management. I once had a manager that never communicated with me and any of my coworkers.

If the customer is too cold, the store doesn’t have the exact item they want, they do not like a store policy, or there are not enough cashiers on staff to make the checkout lines go fast enough, quite frequently customers assume you are to blame personally. As much as I would like to have everything exactly the way you’d like it, if for no other reason than for you to stop yelling at me, you are not our only customer and I don’t own the store. I just work here. God forbid they ask to speak to your manager. Chances are good you’ll have to endure a pep talk about the customer always being right, even though you were in no way responsible for their…

Norm violations are common in society today. Norms are defined as being “expectations of ‘right’ behavior” (Henslin, 49). There are two types of norms: folkways and mores.

A more is a type of norm that is forcefully implemented.…
Whether you are taking notes or publishing a book, everyone uses writing at some point in their life. Writing is one of the greatest forms of communication we have.

I believe that the four best practices for excelling in customer service includes making a great first impression, respecting customers time, going one step further, and never argue with a customer. There are multiple reasons why these are the best practices. Making a great first impression is a great practice because how you greet the person can make or break a deal. Research has found that 20% of customers stopped using a brand/company after one bad experience. As soon as possible, a customer needs to understand your commitment to their needs, level of competence and ability to deliver what they're looking for.…
When dealing with a service user it is very important that particular attention is given to use of communication skills. Communication skills are very important whilst administering care to service users as it helps to gain their trust and co-operation. Many people today believe communication is a verbal action, which is correct but within society today it is no longer the primary method, as verbal communication is only 7% whereas nonverbal communication is 93%. (Nonverbalgroup.com, 2014) This evidently shows how important it is that health professionals are fully aware of the nonverbal signs that they themselves are given out and what the consequences of these might have on the client.…
Communications is one of the most important skills that you will need in life. Whether it is talking face-to-face, email, phone, or skype, getting your point across clearly and/or being effective all depends on your communication skills. In an article by Greg Satell, titled, “Why Communication is Today’s Most Important Skill,” the author states that, “Growing up, I had always heard about the importance of hard-work, honesty, and other things, but never communication” (Satell, 2015, p. 1).

With opposing viewpoints, knowledge, and/or biases challenging one another, you will come out with the best solutions.…
It was at this point that the manager came out to figure out why were all at the window trying to help the lady with her order. This seemed inappropriate to me because he chose the time where we trying to help someone as a team, and he hadn’t been out to help earlier. I talked to him later that evening and found discovered that the reason he wasn’t really helping was because he had a full crew of high schoolers and he felt “he was doing too much and some people weren't working as hard as they should’ve. More specifically he was angry at one employee because they weren’t doing what he had asked even though he had asked over 5 times.…
