"Once, a customer complained about waiting in line for so long on a busy Monday morning. She was so upset because she was late for work, and the rest of her schedule for the day was thrown off. I listened and let her know I understood where she was coming from, ensuring her I would move as quickly as I could to complete her transaction. I calmed her down and eased the tension by listening to her and empathizing with her."

"If I were faced with an irate customer, I would listen to their concerns. Usually, people just want to be heard. If the situation escalated and the customer became threatening, I would call in a supervisor or security."
