Customer service There’s customer service In the United States that’s good and there’s customer services that’s bad. If the customer service is bad it doesn 't necessarily mean it’s the employees’ fault; it’s more than likely the customers fault. If they have someone screaming at them for hours on end it wears them out and makes them snap. Customers only have to deal with someone being mean for the time they are at the drive thru, where as the worker has to sit through hours of screaming and complaining from other customers. One example of bad customers service would be this lady going off on a employee and started cussing him out and it turned out it was a mistake and the lady turned

Ken Blanchard’s "Raving Fans" is a book that details an interesting business approach. The protagonist, who is called “The Area Manager” is new to his job and doesn’t know where to start. Luckily, he’s visited by a person (or being) known only as “Charlie”. Charlie’s purpose is to show The Area Manager the three "magic secrets" to make what he calls raving fans, the ultimate in customer service. Charlie emphasizes that satisfying customers isn’t good enough nowadays, and that the best way to be a successful is to create raving fans. Be different, be better.

Managers can afford to hire more customer service representatives and ensure quality through proper training and development. It is a simple fact of money that it allows you to improve upon what is existing and construct what is not. What good customer service entails is a team of caring, hardworking people who truly want to help their customers. Unfortunately, money often dictates the quality of this department. This is again perfectly demonstrated in Good Burger—Good Burger, the needier of the two businesses, has poor customer service; while Mondo Burger, the wealthier of the two, has the superior customer service.
Service is a hard industry to be in. A prime example of this would be a dentist’s office, such as the one I work at. Many people are already on edge from just having to be there. Customer, or patient rudeness is very common and the people providing the service are supposed to be nice at all times. When a patient or customer is being disrespectful one should respond with kindness unless it gets out of
I would like to share a couple of examples showing good customer service and bad customer service.

Datatronics is an organization that serves their customers with Enterprise Resource Planning integrated solutions. Their growth is mainly attributed to acquisitions of smaller competitors.

The customer service personnel should be in a position to acknowledge their clients and pay attention well to whatever they say and put into practice active listening. They should also give a chance to the customers to respond to the services the company offers perhaps through the enterprise’s website.

I believe our legal system is fair to a certain extent. My contemplation about the legal system is that I do believe certain laws are fair and good to keep our society sane. Not all of them are. For example, my biggest issue is that “innocent until proven guilty” is not the case for everyone dealing with the law and I say this from my own personal experience. People are arrested and jailed and then eventually, after months or even years proven to be innocent which is completely unfair in my opinion. They must live with that mistreatment and misjudgment for the rest of their lives. I also do not believe in jury duty because yes, it is fair that us as citizens have the opportunity to have a say in the law but not everyone is educated on
Anglo American hired Cynthia Carroll as chief executive officer in hopes that she would improve the overall performance of the company. Failing to meet their expectations would almost guarantee her time at the company would be short lived. As CEO she must juggle the interests of her stakeholders and make decisions that benefit the company. It can prove to be a difficult task as certain stakeholders hold more power and have more influence when it comes to making these decisions. In this paper I will be using stakeholder theory to discuss how Anglo American’s stakeholders influence Carroll’s decision. Carroll is well aware of the dangers her employees face, however she must decide whether it is in her best interest to increase safety or not. While increasing safety measures may make the company look better, it will come at great costs. Although Cynthia Carroll is facing some opposition from it’s the South African government and its employees, when taking in the interests of all the company’s stakeholders it is clear that she must keep the mines up and running without taking more safety precautions.
Finally, the clock says 8:55. Only five more minutes until your eight hour shift, which honestly felt more like twelve, is over. The store looks perfect and all of the housekeeping chores are taken care of. As you are walking to lock the front door, a large family comes rushing in asking if the store is closed. With a fake smile plastered on your face, you tell them the store closes in less than five minutes, so they promise to be quick. Now their kids are running around and the parents are ripping apart the T-shirts you just folded. Being polite and helpful in these situations is hard, and all you want to do is tell them to get out. Customer service is important, but it can sometimes be a challenge. Still, there are a few key steps to giving good customer service that can ensure that the customers will have a positive experience while shopping with the company.
