Nath@aussie.zone 1 week agoI’m one of those weirdo types who loved customer service. I miss retail work. I could see myself doing it again, only you can’t live off the pay. I liked this time of year: Yes it was super busy, but people were mostly pretty positive and the days flew by.

I enjoy the “hi what can I get for ya” of hospo/fast food, and the one interaction nature of it. Seriously, I could do that for hours without wearing out. Which I found really odd considering I’m very introverted, probably antisocial, and have abysmal interpersonal skills

Nah, it makes perfect sense. People who are introverted or have issues relating to people are usually fine for this sort of work. The customer comes to you, and the list of things that they will require is manageable. There’s a formula to it. I thought of it as playing tracks on a CD to the customer. Your job is to know which track to play to them. Far easier than being required to think up conversation topics on people you need to approach in a social setting.
