just sayin'....
So, how about this? Seriously, not trying to stereotype, but I think this is a reasonable explanation....
I think people are applying normal, customer service thought processes to this situation. You know, handle the customer with care...be diplomatic...a quick smile and appology "gee, I got a tad jammed up. But please, sit tight, and I'm going to give you a nice discount"...stuff like this.
However, I think it very possible, almost reasonable, to assume poeple in the tattoo/body piecing business lack this thought process. It may just not be part of their mental make-up.
I'm sure they are highly skilled at what they do, but I think it very possible they may lack, normal, everyday people skills.
Years back, there was a tattoo shop in town that sold other things. I visited it from time to time, and the two guys that wokred there were just insanely rude and crude. Real dumpy characters. But they provided goods and services that people desired, so their business did OK.
Anyway....
Day off Friday....first boat trip of the year!
