Question In the banking scenario where customers are involved what are the do's and don'ts of interrupting when employee is with a customer, on the telephone, or in general? Is there a quizz on interrupting?
Answer Dear Ms. Gagnon,
A customer should try to respect the bank employee
who is serving another customer. The only reasons I
can think to break into a conversations involve the
need to inform one and all of a fire or flood. If I
am being waited upon and the phone rings,I might ask
the teller to ignore the call as I was 'there first'.
No,to my knowledge there is no quiz on this sort of thing.
Best regards,
Amanda Gamble
