Indeed..I've experienced bad customer services @ a couple Haitian Stores when I lived in the South!!!!! These biatches were all up in my business..always paying attention to the groceries I was buying. WTF? ...or flirting!! I had some clerk jerks giving me hard times...."
if you want your change, you gonna have to give me your number cherie" ..:5:
I once drove all the way to this Haitian market in Delray Beach,FL...and got the things I needed to cook me some bouillon..right;..there was four of them behind the counter..the one girl (with her ulgy fake long hair) that was checking me out held my "igname" in the air and shouted "
yanm is gross, I don't eat that"..the others began laughing and I heard them say..."
Ti pitit sa se moun Jeremie li ye kanmenm".....I then asked if Jeremians were the only known people in Haiti to eat "yanm" and told them that actually I was from P-A-P...hmm Ambrosia pitit...hell broke loose "
OH TOUT MOUN ICI SE MOUN PORT-AU-PRINCE "....One of them told me "
oh mwenmenm se *Liancourt* mwen soti mwen pa honte"!!!
Okay, like I gave a fck where they were from... I'm telling you I just turned around and left the store. Months later, I ran into the fat loudmouth girl in school...she confessed she was kinda jealous and thought I was one of them girls who think they're all that because that time I wore a tshirt that said " Don't hate me 'coz I'm beautiful"..WTF? well...despite her apology, I never went back to that store.:5:
Sadly, I can't remember a time when I walked into an Haitian business and was greeted by the clerk...nope that never happened! They were either to busy looking at what people wore..gossiping or just sat there joking among themselves. Seems like all they really care about is the money coming in..from us idiotsgrinnn . At first, I thought okay genleu se paske mwen jeune, si'm te paret yon granmoun yo tap saluer'm, but hey, when I go elsewhere..I'm always greeted!!! and they don't judge me!!
A friendly hello when you arrive at the counter would be alright..they don't even know about thanking the customers..what about a smile for God's sake!!... I'm not sure of a way to fix this, other than calling the owner and complain..or better yet advertise on the radio, have someone like Tonton Bicha go like "Si nou pa pran soin clients yo, nap perdu yo et business la pap mache" lol. An palan Lesly Jacques ta dwe fe yon emisyon sou sa!!
hmm I'm glad I moved!!!....around here there are no Haitian markets ..and you know what? I ain't complaining baby ;-)!!!
