Abusing service / customer-facing staff fits in to this as well and is at once particularly revealing and particularly damning.

Whenever a customer is rude to me I just remember that they're probably compensating for how terrible their own lives are. If it was actually an issue on my part then one of my coworkers would've told me by now. Makes it way easier to move on with my day.

Im sorry that you have to deal with shitty customers. I always make sure to smile to the service/customer facing staff and be as polite as possible

I'm in and out and I always say thank you when I'm done, since I personally like it when customers get out of my store as soon as possible.
