What's more important: Your employee or your customer? A popular business expression is, “The customer is always right." But you should never say “always."
The owners of a restaurant in Alaska won international praise after protecting their autistic (自闭的) employee.
When the employee delivered the wrong food to a customer's house,that customer reacted violently and unkindly. Even after the employee corrected the mistake,the customer continued to shout. And that same customer was even rude to the restaurant owners,daughter. So the owners “fired” the customer.
Restaurant owners P.J. and Spiro Gialopsos have added the customer to the restaurant,s “Do N〇t Deliypr” lilt. That customer is now gm/a,Latin for “an unwelcome person."
P.J. Gialopsos wrote on the restaurant's Facebook page, “you would think in the year 2015 the majority of the population would have learned or at least heard about autism."
Gialopsos said, “The employee has worked at the Little Italy Restaurante in Anchorage,Alaska,for two years. He was very upset about the angry customer."
Gialopsos describes the employee as a seriously gifted university student who is curious about the world. She adds that the employee also has aan amazing personality,great sense of humor and a strong work ethic(职业道德) .”
“This employee is also one who will not have to deal with that rude customer anymore ,” added Gialopsos.
Reached at home by reporters,Gialopsos said she is happy about the positive comments she and her husband are receiving. By Tuesday afternoon,her Facebook posting about the incident received more than 30 ,000 “Likes” and hundreds of positive comments. Comments and emails came from Australia,the United Kingdom,Ireland,Namibia and the United Arab Emirates.
Gialopsos said she spent a couple of emotional days crying over the posts on the Facebook page. She adds that many parents from around the country who have children with autism wrote to her about the incident. “Their stories broke my heart/' she said. Another comment on Facebook that she found “striking” is a woman who thanked them for hiring someone who is “differently-abled. ”
