みなさんこんにちは、美樹のブログです。
先日、いつものようにハンバーガーショップでアルバイトをしていました。
すると、体の大きな三十代前半ほどの男のお客さんが入ってきました。その人は最初から機嫌が悪そうでイライラしていました。
注文を終えるとすぐに、「今のキャンセル！」と大きな声で怒鳴りました。ハンバーガーを作りながら会話をした私達の接客が気に入らなかったようです。狂ったように怒ったその男は店の中で食事をしていた他のお客さんにもきたない言葉で怒鳴り、「また来るからな！」と言って出て行きました。この男の怒り方は本当に怖くて、殴られるんじゃないかと思う程でした。怒鳴られたお客さんは警察を呼ぼうとしていました。なんだか接客のトラウマになりそうです。もう二度と来ないでほしい！
後日、友達にこの話をしたら、なんと友達のバイトしているコンビニにもこの男は来たらしいのです！同じように接客態度について怒鳴った後、「俺の接客は完璧だ！電気屋で働いているから俺の完璧な接客を見に来い！」と言い、「また来るからな！」と言って出て行ったそうです。
この話を聞いてから、電気屋に行く度にあの男を探してしまします。あんなに怖い人がどれほどすごい接客をするのか見てみたいものです。
電気屋の店員には気をつけましょう！
それではまた来週！

I have had experienced a couple of “crazies'’ in my time.
I used to work the graveyard shift a a gas station (11:30pm - 7:00am) in a small country town in Australia. In the time I worked there I had many customers who would come in a do odd things in the shop with a coffee machine, buy papers everyday (but never read them), the guys and girls who would come in a 3 in the morning to chat wreaking of alcohol and “mary-jane”, then there were the customers would would yell in your face because gas was too high, or their credit card wasn’t accepted. And of course the robberies the weapon of choice usually a large knife.
However, I did like my job because most people are really pleasant and I could study Japanese at work!!

I’m guessing he was probably the father of that 14 year old that tried to do some damage on the bus in Aichi Prefecture last week.:???:
But yes alot of crazies in the world.

そこにいたら私は天井から逆さまで彼をハングさせよう。
If I had been there I would have hung him upside down from the ceiling.

It seems from this story that Miki is (still) working part-time at that hamburger shop. Is that true?

蜘蛛さんは私ほ割り上げる。
Spidey cracks me up. (I literally translated crack me up so I’m not sure if it actually makes sense)

そんなに不機嫌なお客はひどいですね！美樹さん、頑張ってください！
私はバイトをしたことがないけど、時々病院に不機嫌な患者がいて、よくない仕事環境ですよ！

spideyさん
このブログを書いたときは、美樹さんはハンバーガー屋で働いていたかもしれません。でも、今はもう働いていません 
When Miki wrote this blog, she might have been working there. However, she’s not working there any more.

＞ヒョヌ
MK5は、そんなときに使えると思います。
というか、どうしてヒョヌはMK5という言葉を知っているんですか？？？？？ 
面白い
MK5（マジ キレる 5秒前）= It’s 5 seconds before you get angry
昔、流行った言葉なので、今はたぶん、誰も使いません笑。

Peter,
Hey give that book Winners Never Cheat a second look. I know you said you couldn’t believe that Natsuko liked that book but it was written by Jon Huntsman who is an incredible human being. I don’t usually go on about stuff like this but seriously look him up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Huntsman,_Sr.
He also runs a Cancer foundation in Utah which many say is second to none. I have never seen it but I have heard many interviews with him and if some of us could grow to be a tenth of the man he is i’d say the world would be a better place. Stephen Covey isn’t a bad choice either. One thing both of those men have in common is they are Mormons and while it isn’t revealed blatantly in the contents of those books a lot of the principles come directly from their faith. I am not a member of any religion but a lot can be learned from these people. Especially in business.
sorry for the rant.
