23 Reasons Why I Love My Job(Or What Makes It Interesting): The Funny Observations From the Little Girl At the Front Of the Music Store

1. The fact that literally every single person that comes in asks me if they came in the wrong door

2. The old men that bring in instruments they've made themselves

3. Little kids coming in for their first time that stop after the front door and say, "Whoa..."

4. The metal heads that shred on the guitars so loud we can't hear the customers, for sometimes leading up to 30 minutes long

5. The respectful gentlemen that take the time to politely compliment my lipstick or dresses

6. Cute, old people who come in to buy sound equipment for their church

7.  When customers bring their damaged equipment up to me and think that I will personally fix it

8. People that ask where Saied Music is

9. Entire bands that come in together, nod their heads at me, and proceed through the store with their sunglasses on, making subtle moves to let everyone know they're in a band, unaware that everyone else in the store probably is too

10. Customers that actually treat me like a lady and say "yes, ma'am" and "thank you"

11. The people that tug on the stiff door, decide it's locked, then walk away really embarrassed

12. The hipster kids that come in because they need to return their sound programs or mixing software

13.  The classic arrogant, older musicians that bring in their equipment, yet refuse to follow company policy because "that's not the way they work" 

14. People that are impressed I know where a serial number is on a guitar, even though that is practically my job

15. Creeps that hang around the front counter where I stand and try to flirt with me, astonished there is a female in a music store (I do not enjoy this)

16. The happy people that buy ukuleles

17. The sweet old men that stand up at the front and visit with me

18. When I ask customers to leave their guitars out of their cases while in the store, as company policy, and they look at me as if I said, "Please take your clothes off"

19. The typical people that ask me what I did to my leg... as they're walking out the door

20. Wives that come in to buy guitars for their husband

21. Customers that call me by name because they took the time to read my name tag

22. When I ask female customers if I can help them find anything and they say, "Yes, my husband. He'd never leave this place if I didn't come looking for him."

23.  The occasional customers that ask if I'm in Brother Rabbit and then proceed to tell me they come to our shows and listen to our music all of the time

I truly am grateful for my job and love every strange person that comes in.
