The Customer Is Not Always Right
If there is one thing I want my hypothetical children to do, it’s work in retail. Not forever, just a short sentence. Having suffered through this myself, I know that it is the most brutal character building experience short of joining the army. I strongly believe that we in the developed world should have conscripted retail service. This isn’t because I hate everyone and want the following generations to suffer. No, it’s actually because I believe that the experience creates nicer people.
