And while his words startle me with their ego wounding potential, the traditional feel-good, let-you-down-easy, sugar-coated feedback is not much of a gift. It’s hard to tell someone they’re not good enough and t

Someone sent me this lunchtime message:

‘Whilst waiting for my toasted foccacia, a young man came into the shop and asked for a salad sandwich.

‘While the shop owner prepared the sandwich, the young man kept saying “Give me heaps of carrot”, and “Give me heaps of beetroot”, etc.

‘When it came time to pay, the shop owner rang up the transaction and said, “That’s $3.50.” The customer replied, “But the price says $3.20.”

Training Evaluation Made Easy

Of course, that customer will never return – and I’m quite sure he will tell others about his bad experience. Those he tells may avoid the sandwich shop, too.

The shop owner should have checked whether his menu pricing reflected a surcharge for ‘extra’ toppings. I looked, and it didn’t.

Stamps are authorized impressions or marks used for the prepayment of a tax or fee. It is an official mark or seal indicating an approval, ownership, or payment of tax. The history of stamps can be traced back to the sixteenth century. The first official royal mail office was opened in England in 1516. Later, mail was required to be paid for by the recipient rather than the sender; this system proved too problematic for everyone because of the resulting preponderance of undelivered mail. The concept of adhesive postage stamp was introduced by James Chalmers in Great Britain in 1834. Brazil issued stamps in 1843, and in the United States, the adhesive postage stamp was officially issued in 1847.
