Some people are just never satisfied, and grateful, forget about it. I often wonder how certain of our customers order food in a restaurant. Displaying such doubt and lack of decision-making ability (we are talking a color here) how do these folks choose where to dine and what to eat? "...maybe I should have gotten thing two..." But thing one is delicious I just want to say but don't.
It can be endless. Same customer once every couple of months can never decide on a color, or a style, or just about anything. Constantly doubting herself, her decisions, her choices, her everything. Never ever happy in the end. After an hour of mulling, finally chose our most classic boatneck sweater as a gift...and only after we appear with a perfectly gorgeous gift wrapped package does she change her mind on the color. So we unwrap apricot and serve her up an azure sundae in no time. Just smile and go on is the only way to move forward.
The kicker is when a longtime customer who hasn't been in in a few years...not surprising given the times, finds the perfect turf green vest and super cool Barbour tartan crinkle scarf to go golfing in on St. Patrick's day. It was a Saturday...she left happy as a clam. On Sunday I get an early morning phone call at home...yes, AT HOME, on Sunday, the store is closed, nothing happens in this community on Sundays...she was frantic because she's misplaced her favorite pair of sunglasses. Sunglasses! Can't it wait. Turns out they are not in the store & we've never heard where they turned up...
