Working Up

by Dwayne Phillips

My customer pays me for a product or a service. I provide it. I do not, however, have to allow my customer to be my teacher.

My customer is my customer. They pay me for a product or a service, and I provide that.

However, I don’t have to:

• act like they act
• talk like they talk
• treat people like they treat people
• hate like they hate
• ridicule like they ridicule
• and so on

I don’t have to learn from them.

Not only does this apply to my customer, it also applies to my employer and a lot of other persons I meet each day.
