Working in retail in the same location for over 2 years i have developed several skills while working with all types of people. Working with the public has taught me that i need to be prepared for anything. You never know what type of customer you will be dealing with that day so you have to be on your toes at all times. During these 2 years i have worked with dozens of people of different ages and personalities. I would always find a way to get along with them no matter their attitude. Its not always easy but everyone is different and depending on their attitude i shape the way i will respond differently. I have learned how to put up with demanding, emotional and often disrespectful people. Im thankful for my experience at my most recent job because i have been able to develop successful techniques when dealing with difficult people.
