Telephone Customers ' Don't 7 Dear Ann Landers: I prom- ised myself if it happened again I would sit down and write to you. And it did, so here I am. Why does a telephone cus- tomer get precedence over the customer who has taken the time and trouble to. go to the store? I left my office today for what I thought would be a quick trip. Just as I was pre- paring to hand the saleswoman the money, the telephone rang. She turned around without so much as a word'and left me standing there while she be- came involved with a customer peho had dozens of qtestions. With every passing minute my blood - pressure mounted. I tapped my foot for 12 minutes. I very nearly walked out of the store but I decided it would be biting off my nose to spite my face. If I left I would have to start all over again some place else and perhaps not find what I wanted. Please don't tell me to boy- cott the store that treats its customers this way. They all do. Just tell me what to do about it. -- Columbia, §.C. Dear Columbia: Leaving a eustomer to answer the tele- phone is more than bad busi- ness. bit is bad manners. It's as rude as turning your back on a friend in mid-sentence to speak to an intruder. The sales person who must answer the phone should ask his customer before he leaves him if he will please wait one mo- ment while he takes the num- ber so he can return the call. The next time you are aban- doned this way I hope you will walk out. Then write a letter to the store president and tell him why the store lost the sale and} your good will. ne em ee Take Precedence Dear Ann Landers: I am the mother of seven childre and I have seen a good bit of gvhat goes on in the world so please don't think I'm naive. What happened yesterday gave me the shock of my life. When the delivery boy re turned the family dry cleaning he handed me some papers that he had found in our son Karl's coak pocket. Karl is 17, Among the papers was a note from a girl. Karl and the girl are not any of the others, The girl. was pleading with Karl to take her to a motel so they could pre- tend they were married. From the way she wrote it sounds as if she has been trying to get him to do this for quite some time. Please tell me if I should re- main silent and act as if I know nothing. Or should I let Karl know I saw the note and have a talk with him? -- Lancaster Mother Dear Mother: Get a copy of my book, Ann Landers Talks to Teen-Agers About Sex. You do not have to buy it. Your public library has a copy. Hand the book .to Karl when you return the papers to him. Explain how |you happen to have the papers jand tell him you have read ev- erything, Make it plain you have com- plete confidence in him and that you know he's not going to do anything foolish. Tell him you want to make sure he has plenty of information since it is ob- vious that some of the girls in his crowd are in pretty pathetic shape emotionally and are ig- norant as well.
