<p>I felt that I finally needed to reclaim that 160GB drive. My computer is set up with a 320GB for assorted datas (movies, pics, videos etc.), a 160GB drive holding a XP os with SP3, and an 80GB drive holding XP SP2. The reason for this is I originally planned for 2x80GB in <a href="/title/RAID+0">RAID 0</a>, mirrored onto the 160GB, but I never got around to getting the second 80. I didn't use the <a href="/title/Windows+XP+Sp3">SP3</a> drive anymore, because I used a release candidate, which was a bad idea. Slowed everything down.<br />At this point in time, I also had a friends 40GB drive in the system, which I was going to <a href="/title/format">format</a> and do a fresh install on, as a result of it being SP1, and being in a bad way due to his <a href="/title/bad+organisational+skills">bad organisational skills</a>.<br />Seeing as everything was on the 80GB drive anyways (except for steam, more on that later), I just decided to <a href="/title/ghost">ghost</a> the whole 80GB drive over to the 160 for more space.<br />When it finished, I then decided to ghost my friends drive onto<!-- close unclosed tag --></p>…The customer is always right (idea)http://everything2.com/user/rmvvwls/writeups/The+customer+is+always+rightrmvvwlshttp://everything2.com/user/rmvvwls2008-06-22T13:51:09Z2008-06-22T13:51:09Z<p>At my <a href="/title/workplace">workplace</a>, we have been told that "The customer is always right" is <strong>not</strong> to be <a href="/title/tolerated">tolerated</a>.
<p>What I have been taught is that "The customer is always <strong><a href="/title/first">first</a>"</strong>.</p>
<p>What this means is that you can correct a customer and you can tell them that they are wrong, and that the store down the street does not, infact, have that <a href="/title/model">model</a> for half the price. They have one that looks like it, but is not the same.</p>
<p>However, if there is a customer there, unless you are serving someone else, you are to <a href="/title/drop+what+you+are+doing">drop what you are doing</a> to serve them.

<p><strong>The Know-It-All</strong>: These people will, invariably, know everything there is to know about the product, but will still want you to explain it to them, usually pointing out any flaws in your <a href="/title/knowledge">knowledge</a>. Unfortunately, they are usually wrong but don't want to admit it. (Their previous <a href="/title/machine">machine</a> had a two <a href="/title/megabyte">megabyte</a> <a href="/title/processor">processor</a>, as a matter of fact.)</p>
<p><strong>Remedy</strong>: There isn't one. Either they will buy it or they won't. You are just wasting your breath trying to give them more information on the product. However, make sure to correct anything they get wrong, <em>but do so politely</em>. This prevents them from coming back later because "you sold them a <a href="/title/defective+product">defective product</a>" because that cd player they bought cannot play <a href="/title/mp3">mp3</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Sales prospects</strong>: Medium. If they're there, usually they want it. However, a lot do come just to chat.</p>

<p><strong>The Brat</strong>: Surprisingly, is not usually young. Will<!-- close unclosed tag --></p>…
