No question there are some rude and inconsiderate people here. However, there are also some of the nicest, kindest, friendliest people that live here. Working retail you're going to find some of the worst. Just the nature of the beast. Driving around TV in a golf cart, going to the squares and talking to others, participating in your favorite activities gives you a chance to find some of the best. Also the nature of the TV beast. TV is NOT perfect (sorry Gracie) but it is hard to find anything much better.

My daughter worked retail and had more than her share of mean people. My advice to her was to have her imagine the mean people were in pain (either physically or mentally) and forgive them their bad behavior. Rather than become frustrated or take it personally, she began being extra nice and going the extra mile for them. Amazingly, several of these mean people went out of their way to tell her manager that she had made a very difficult day so much better because of simple acts of kindness.
