Hey! Long time no see..... Everywhere I go people remember me.

Yes, it is nice if we're a regular, but sometimes my boyfriend and I feel that they know we like their business they may take advantage of us. Lately, we have been experiencing that at Whole foods. We would request 'a certain' piece of meat cut and the guy would be like okay I'll grab it from here (which is an older batch looking) and we're like no, we prefer 'this one *points*..... and they'll be like it's the same. Or I get a specific amount of sliced cheese usually 10 thin slices of aged cheddar cheese & the guy would always mock me. Do you want 10 thin slices of aged cheddar cheese when he's the old guy is at a different department. My boyfriend gets annoyed by it. So, when I see him ~ I'll get a different cheese so now he stops. So its pretty disappointing.

@ScribbledAdNauseum The meat cut was already cooked smoked chicken wings! The ones displayed looked newer and the one he was picking from was an older batch that was darken and did not look very new. Usually the ones that are reheated from the day before, will be sold at a cheaper price and displayed in a different area of the store.. And we know this because we're a regular customer there. And about deli meat, someone did try to sell me slices already cut. I refused to take it. She told me she had just cut it... And???? Whats her point. And I was upset last week, at $11 a lb for aged cheddar cheese, you bet I want to pick my cheese. So its a bulk size cheese let's say, it should look like this: [ _______________________________ ] when the cheese is brand new When I asked to see how much is left of the cheese? [ ] Literally all the way to the end, its OLD. Imagine how many times the cheese went back and forth from the fridge into air back into the fridge??? I asked if he had anymore. He said well I only want 10 slices. If the cheese is HALF WAY, I won't request a new one, but the cheese literally was at the end of it's life! Thats a pretty strict rule! One refill only... how many refills can one possibly drink. I drink probably 3 refills but thats because they put so much ice!

@infatuatedbby It also sounds like it can be inconvenient, and in some cases, not good customer service. I think some people are like that. Especially if they are part of a small business. The deli counter guy shouldn't be trying to sell you older meat, even if it is only a few hours old. Is he trying to get you to buy meat that's already been sliced? Sometimes the waitstaff just aren't the best either. This is a bit different from your own situation but it annoys me so I'm going to talk about it here lol. A family member and I go to the same restaurant once a week. We've been getting the same waitress for several weeks now. She is nice enough, but she annoys me. I think it might be more to do with her boss and the way they were trained, but she used to refill my glass before t was empty, or nearly empty. I think she must have heard me talking to my family member about it once, because now she waits until my glass is completely empty refill it. That wouldn't be so bad, but it's usually a considerable time later before she checks to see i need a refill. The drink I order offers one free refill, so I figured that she used to refill it before I was completely finished just to get me to buy another "refill" of it. Hmmph. I wouldn't have done that anyway, but would have asked for plain (free) water.

It can be nice, and it could be weird too :)

@DianneN I hope so!

Hopefully they remember me for good reasons and not talk about me behind my back!

@infatuatedbby I'm sure they love you!

I hope so! Long time no see to you! How have you been??

@Lucky15 Haha where have you been?! Glad your laptop is back & running

@infatuatedbby Been to London? Kidding! Have the laptop get done again, then work..work..work

I hope thats the impression they have on me!

I hope a positive one, ha!

@magallon Hopefully that is so!

@infatuatedbby I am sure it is... or maybe they really remember the name of regular customers and befriended them.

I hope thats why they remember me and not something bad of me, ha-ha.

@infatuatedbby

I sure they value me as a customer, and not someone they talk behind their back about :)

Exactly, the owner was a man too! I know that he's the manager, but I don't know him personally. But people sure do have good memory.

I really hope so :)

I hope so, and I hope they're not talking bad about me!

That is very nice they remember you too as you're a usual :)

I would hope so!

@infatuatedbby

Yes! I am not one to remember names, but faces I do!

@infatuatedbby ......You hope you are memorable?

I hope so!

Yes they must have great memory to remember!

Yes ! I am sort of good with faces, just not names. But I do hope they remember me for good reasons not negative ones lol!

@Happy2BeMe I really sure hope so! Haha

@infatuatedbby lol I am sure it is for good reasons.

Yes I did come back so the owner was happy.

@infatuatedbby that is wreat

I hope so and it isn't something they think bad upon me so they remember me!

@infatuatedbby agree
