Are you now shaking your head after reading how absurd people can be?
According to Zendesk, American consumer culture is centered on making customers feel special. So after they get treated constantly this way, they eventually expect the same thing from other establishments.
They feel upset the moment things don't go their way. Then the customer would come to believe that they have the right to treat others however they want until they are appeased.
After getting what they want, they relax, but only until the next time they are disappointed. This becomes a vicious and ceaseless cycle.
