I’d add working in a call center to that list. Getting yelled at for 8 hours straight can also be a bit traumatic.

I’ve done retail, fast food, and call centers in my work history. I’m also very cognizant that there is a person on the other end of the service being provided.

Most recently, I went to the midnight showing of Black Panther. I had placed my concessions order with the gentleman behind the counter. As he was getting it together, I realized everything was a mess as they were very busy and obviously couldn’t take a moment to clean. So, I just took a second to thank the young man for job he was doing in all of the craziness. And, he sincerely thanked me for saying it.

TL;DR It costs nothing to be kind to customer service employees.
