"When I first started out in retail, I was very shy -- it was hard to adjust to the customer service standards at the store because I was so insecure about talking to new people. My manager noticed me struggling through a conversation with a customer, where the customer was growing frustrated with my difficulty detailing our return policy. My manager stepped in and gave me a hand, and afterward gave me a detailed critique of how I could do better in the future. I really appreciated the feedback; it made me feel good to know that my manager was taking an interest in my work, and it made me want to do better in the future. With her help, I worked on my communication skills and built my confidence, and now I'm much more comfortable talking with customers and answering their questions. The criticism gave me the boost of confidence that I needed."
