Cut & Annoyed!

I hate it. All the blabbering. Especially at the Salon. Why do the stylists feel the need to bombard me with questions? Let’s say I go for my eyebrows done: First, they start by bringing you into this small rather cozy room with ocean music and wonderful scented candle. I love this part. But when I lay down is when the blabbering start. Ten random questions gets asked then miraculously one about eyebrows…this continues till’ I am gasping for air.

Where do you go to school? How long does it take you to drive to school? What are you studying? How long do have left? Did you start looking for jobs?
Do you have brothers or sister? Older or younger?
Did you grow up around here? Where do you live? Is that close by?


I could imagine that they were taught that engaging their customers and being interested in them is a good customer service but I can’t stand it anymore. My doctor doesn’t even talk that much. The questions the doctor asks pertains to my health—which is great-- but the questions stylists ask have nothing to do with her providing me the best service. How annoying would it be if doctors do the same : ask unrelated question in the name of customer service.

When I go for massages, they will ask whether you prefer to talk or just relax…and I say “Let me relax.” Damnit!
