16. Please don’t give me a ridiculous fake name to write on your cup, because I will either roll my eyes while writing it, or just wait for you to give me your real name.

Ha ha, your name is Beyonce, I am cracking up! Yes, it’s “witty” the first time, but trust me, this small interaction will be much more pleasant for the both of us if you stick to your real name.
17. A little kindness goes a long way.
Typically, if a customer seems tired or morose, and I greet them with a smile, they smile back. They might even strike up a conversation. I react the same way when a customer greets me kindly.
Just because this is a business transaction doesn’t mean it has to be cold and meaningless. We’re people, so please treat us as such.
