Describe a difficult situation that you handled successfully?

Submitted by: Administrator

The retail world poses many problematic situations at times. It is not always easy to please customers and keep within the limitations set by the company. While servicing a customer, I was propositioned for a certain amount in dollars if I could unveil my company's pricing strategy. The customer was actually a spy competitor. I figured this much out and politely told him that I am not at a liberty to answer his question. I offered him a discount on the washing machine he was looking at and politely turned him away. He was almost screaming obscenities at me!
