I work at a movie theater and I am very socially awkward. Yes, I have plentiful experience in customer service and I do very well with getting through transactions, but my experience as a conversationalist is very limited.
I do have a few lines I say throughout the transaction that are unique to me and 9/10 times it is received very well.
The line in particular that is most successful is, "Since you have been so patient with me (at first they look surprised) I would love an autograph!" (to sign the receipt. Many of the older adults love hearing that, younger crowds are hit and miss.
Well, I said the most CRINGEWORTHIEST CHEESY line last night.
The customer told me, "Wow, I feel famous!"
And I said, "Well, at the movies, *you* get to be the star!"
It was just so downright corny and cheesy and I felt soooo embarrassed. The look of disgust on my coworker's faces made it worse.
Can you share some funny embarrassing things you've said that you can laugh about now?
