10 Attitudes of Successful Workers
By JLP | February 15, 2006
I saw 10 Attitudes of Successful Workers on the MSN homepage and thought I’d share it. Imagine the workplace if EVERYONE had those attitudes!
A trip to your local retailer will prove the fact that most people do not have these attitudes. Here’s some things that really bug me:
I hate it when I go to the grocery store and the checker and sacker talk between themselves and totally ignore me. No, I don’t want them to be fake towards me but it would be nice to at least be acknowledged.
I hate it when I see employees walk past trash on the parking lot instead of picking it up. Of course most of them will say “that’s not MY job.” However, I find this excuse a little lame since a lot of them don’t even properly perform their real jobs.
I hate it when something rings up wrong and the checker expects me to go get a price check.
I hate rude attitudes. There’s simply no reason for rudeness.
Of course, a lot of these problems are caused by managment because the managers themselves don’t care.
There, I got those off my chest. Read the above article. In fact, print it out, make copies and share it with the world!

I’m with you on the bad service. Its just so hard to get people who care about more than just the paycheck to handle those lower-end jobs. It’s really a shame because if done well, they could be a stepping stone towards something higher for them.

I ditto your annoyance with the cashier and bagger talking amongst themselves and not even acknowledging your presence! And they are usually talking about last weekend’s party and how they got so trashed that they don’t even remember how they got home that night. UGH!
