Also “guest”? this isn’t a work huddle. Don’t you ever use that corporate trash-assed word after you clocked out. You arent c-suite, don’t use their language

so happy you said this. the use of the word “guest” instead of “customer” really gets under my skin

Same with “associate” or “partner” instead of employee. Garbage nonsense. It’s insulting.

I recently had a cashier call another one over for a purchase and referred to me as a “guest”. It felt weird. I was not a guest. I was trying to exchange money for goods and services and leave.

I don’t know what corporate big brain came up with the guest terminology, but it feels weird from every angle.

  I can get this one more so. My business has a client side and a contractor side. People say “user” and it’s too ambiguous.
