The nature of the service industry means that our lives are often interrupted by the needs of others. Customers need kindness and understanding especially if they have an emergency situation. Instead of resentment for being bothered, learn to deal with the wants and needs of customers. Some have trouble recognizing that "service" means to "serve" as in "servant."
A day may open with harshness or a daunting work schedule and a cheery response may take a bit of doing because this day doesn't invite a cheerful mood. Try to do a better job of seeming cheerful even when we don't feel that way. Look happy, act happy, be happy and perform happy actions with enthusiasm and your rewards will be handsome.
