If you're a Whole Foods cashier and chatting with the next lane's bagger about you leaving for the day, and you say, "I'm gonna be outta here, mother f*cker," perhaps you shouldn't say that in front of your customer. And perhaps you should actually say "thank you" when you hand the customer her receipt instead of continuing your chat with your coworker.
Just a thought.
And if you're the Whole Foods bagger who just finished bagging the customer's items, maybe you should acknowledge the customer as she leaves ... instead of the customer saying "thank you" to see if you'll respond.
Just a thought.
I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but when I go to Whole Foods, I feel like my presence is a burden and an annoyance to the staff. They seem to not want to deal with customers.
I understand Whole Foods is a niche store. And even though I'm shopping there and I'm a 20-something female, I still expect the same level of customer service and professionalism as a super-conservative little old grandma would expect.
The employees at Woodman's are super friendly to me and always professional. I shop in the organic/natural aisles at my local Woodman's every week. I will continue to do that and make my Whole Foods visits not so frequent.
