inA guy at my counter in Reno said 'the customer is always right' is a lie we all agreed to, and I can't stop thinking about it
Does it really matter that much though? Customers yell about coupons and you nod and move on, that's just the job. I worked a register for two years and the worst I got was a lady mad about an expired deal, I said sorry, she left, end of story. Pushing back sounds great in theory but you're the one still standing there when they ask for your manager.

inShowerthought: I blamed the drive thru headset for 2 years and it was actually one setting on the register
A register volume setting at 40 percent for two years is wild but I gotta ask, was it really costing you that much? Wrong orders happen at every drive thru whether the headset works or not, people mumble, cars are loud, someone orders a large and you hear a small. Sounds like the new kid from 5th Street just happened to scroll one menu deeper than everyone else. Not sure this is the big lesson people are gonna make it out to be, it's just a thing nobody checked.

inPro tip: I told a room of 30 people at a Denver meetup that cold email is dead and 4 of them walked out
But those agency guys who left might be proving your point without knowing it. If it takes a super targeted list and a near-personal email to get any replies, then cold email isn't really working as a channel, it's just manual sales with extra steps. So the folks closing deals weekly are probably sending 20 emails a day they wrote by hand, not the 10k blast stuff the term usually means.
