I really get annoyed when I go to a store to make a purchase and the clerk acts like I\u2019m not even there! No eye contact. No \u201chow are you today?\u201d Not even a thank you. It really leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I\u2019m also not fond of not receiving <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/thank-you-cards\/\"><strong>thank you cards<\/strong><\/a>. Is it too much to ask? Has saying thank you become pass\u00e9?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/product\/classically-elegant-thank-you-card-300427\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5513\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/78JAY.jpg\" alt=\"Thank You Cards\" width=\"577\" height=\"420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/78JAY.jpg 577w, https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/78JAY-300x218.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 577px) 100vw, 577px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t get me wrong. There are plenty of people that haven\u2019t forgotten the old ways. I do run into people that say thank you and I do get thank you cards from some. But all too often we take manners for granted and do not realize the importance they hold in our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Being in customer service, I am on the phone and interacting with our customers daily. In order to assure them that I appreciate their order and the opportunity to serve them, I must convey with my voice. I do this by smiling and being helpful. No, it can\u2019t be seen, but they can hear in my voice that I truly care. When I am dealing with an individual on a more personal level, I convey my thanks not only in person, when I can, but I follow it up with a thank you card.<\/p>\n<p>Whenever I purchase my all occasion cards, I make sure that they include thank you cards. When the occasion arises, I have it at the ready. Whether in business or personally, and under appreciated person is an unhappy person. Either way, it\u2019s a recipe for disaster. I don\u2019t want to be the person responsible for that!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I have a pet peeve.
