When people go to a fast food chain, for example, they often don't remember that they're talking to a human being.
This can, obviously, be quite problematic.
Simply saying hello to them, asking politely for things (please), and saying thank you can bring a smile to their faces.
Despite the simplicity, they're dealing with rude customers on a regular basis, so the polite ones tend to stand out!
Eventually, they're bound to take a stand, right?
I mean, if you were constantly being mistreated, wouldn't you say something?
Meet Austin Simms.
Austin had been struggling with impolite customers for quite some time, so he decided to take a stand in a funny way.
Austin jokingly attributes his creative response to:
"Wanting to solve all the injustices in the world."
Instead of lashing out at customers or being passive aggressive, Austin took a creative approach.
Customers satisfaction is still number one, so why not spice things up, right?
The sign, which he placed right outside of the store, has been causing quite the stir.
The sign reads:
" 'One small coffee'
$5.00
'One small coffee, please'
$3.00
'Hello, I’d like one small coffee please.'
$1.75 "
$5.00
'One small coffee, please'
$3.00
'Hello, I’d like one small coffee please.'
$1.75 "
Receiving a discount simply for being polite? Gee, thanks for the manners, Mom and Dad!
It's a pretty sweet way to get a discount, or inflated price, on your coffee.
