Unexpected intimacy
There is an intimacy working at the checkout, casting an eye over the products can, sometimes more than others, give an insight into the customer, or the customer's day. It can give an opener to a conversation that is simple and intimate in a way that, quite often, customers, sadly, can miss out on in their day to day. So is this intimacy a good thing to pursue?
Try, try to ensure they understand what you think, not what you think they want to hear but what you think. Of course always be kind in sharing your honest word. I think a lot of the mess I find myself in now would have been avoided if I'd just said what I thought as kindly as I could. Instead the pinched face as I withheld my affection in the same dam that withheld my criticism is the pinched face that made it all turn to muck. Mucky muck.
I seem to be quite insistent on running on empty. Well, not empty, but I keep myself up at night fiddling or watching a television show that is not going to make me a better or more fulfilled person. Or even if it did there is still not reason not to do all the fluffle in the morning or the following evening or next week Sunday. Get a grip.
