<p>So, how do I deal with rude people? Like, when I go to "customer" service, and I'm not attended to in a polite and diligent manner, I literally have the biggest BF ever because I come from a cultural background where that's absolutely not accepted under any circumstance. And when I'm working, if someone comes into the shop with a snotty attitude, I try to attend to them politely and try to calm them down, but if that doesn't work, I either call security, my manager, or I have another BF. I, of course, have never been fired because of my BFs because the same people always come back to me say thank you (idk what for). But, I'm beginning to understand that having BFs is not the answer to all life's problems and that they could possibly cause problems. How do you guys deal with rude people???</p>
<p>Treat people that you want to be treated. No matter how rude or how much you dislike them, be respectful and treat them like any other person.</p>
<p>By BF, do you mean the culturally accepted “boyfriend” (which would make little to no sense) or, the more likely, “beezy fit”?</p>
<p>she means female-dog fit</p>
<p>And I usually just don’t let rude people get to me. I try to help them with their problem, and maintain a positive attitude (or at least the appearance of one) which hopefully rubs off on them. As for dealing with rude people in customer service, I make a mental note to avoid doing business with the place as well as giving it a poor review on Yelp.</p>
<p>Do you seriously call security on someone who’s just being a rude customer though? Sounds like you need some anger management training or something.</p>
<p>I’m guessing BF = female dog fit (the best way I can put it without being censored)</p>
<p>I treat rude people with a stern, yet kind manner so I can look like the better person. I try not to let them get to me. I’m not letting some person with a bad day ruin my happiness.</p>
<p>kill them with kindness.
anybody with morals will feel guilty for being a jerk.</p>
<p>smack they mouth n tell 'em not to make beef where they ain’t none</p>
<p>Well. I don’t have a “BF” and get on with my day. Unless I was directly insulted or something more extreme, there’s no need to freak out and get your panties in a bunch and contact management. If I have a customer like that, I’ll still smile and say have a great day, because they’ll be gone in about one minute so there’s no point in focusing so much negative energy on it. One of the reasons why I never understand why people complain so much about their customers. </p>
<p>And when I’m working, if someone comes into the shop with a snotty attitude, I try to attend to them politely and try to calm them down</p>
<p>Really? Really? You’ll call security or your manager for that? Sounds like you need to chill out. I agree with DCHurricane. You need anger management training or something, because that is not how you treat your customers. If I were on the receiving end, I’d say you’re the one being rude. There’s hundreds of reasons customers might be snotty, and it’s not your job to figure out why. Just deal with them politely and nicely and move on.</p>
<p>lol my ass would get fired in a heartbeat if I ever yelled at a customer</p>
<p>You sound like someone I’d fire. </p>
<p>Learn how to deal with people. Seriously.</p>
<p>me=boy. boxers in a bunch.
i only call security if they directly insult me/co-employee, which happens a lot. We get a lot of shaddy characters sometimes. And a lot of poor people who act rich and try to come in the store and steal and get caught then come back with they get their paycheck and seem like they can afford everything. But I do try to treat every with respect and dignity and not yell at them, but this has just been happening recently. Idk. I’ve been feeling like Dr.Phil trying to help everyone with his/her problem. haha. Should stop that. But not to sound cocky, but I’ll never get fired from this job. Only when hell freezes over.</p>
<p>Assuming as part of your job training there was likely guidance in how to do with such instances of rude people, this insure you are following the guidelines by your job. If you were given no guidelines in dealing with rude people ask an administrator at your job.</p>
<p>I just tell 'em I don’t beef wit nobodys</p>
<p>Sometimes, the dude may just be having a bad day. Usually, if you’re nice, it can brighten the dude’s day and make him change his way. If he doesn’t change his attitude, then you can assume that you probably have more friends and better friends than him. </p>
<p>But if what you’re talking about is some full blown gansta strai from the ghetto, there ain no stoppin him. They smell fear a mile away, and they mean boy, they mean.</p>
<p>^at which point you whip out the heavy artillery: begin discussing things like string theory or the origins of the universe and raising kids properly. they’ll run back to the ghetto/barrio/trailer park in no time flat.</p>
<p>I suggest just treating people nice regardless of their mood and trying to get the ruder ones out of there quickly by simply doing your job very quickly. Everyone can have bad days and while some might be rude to you, it should all pass by quickly.</p>
<p>a lot of the students here complain about how “rude” the food service people are. granted, i agree that the majority of the workers are not smiling from ear to ear every second but they do their job. regardless of how the customer service person acts, i say “thank you” and “please” in the most earnest way possible and that usually makes them act “nicer” as well.</p>
