I wonder where Jacob is? He’s thirty minutes late

coming back from his dinner break!

Click the button beside the option that you consider to be the best course of action for Jim.

“Jacob, you’re awfully late coming back from your dinner break, and tonight has been really busy. You know it’s important for us to keep to our schedule so we can provide great customer service. It takes all of us to meet their automotive needs.”

“Jacob, you’re awfully late coming back from your dinner break tonight. You’re usually so good about following the schedule. Can you explain why you were so late coming back from your break?”

. . . We grab a still frame from the video using QuickTime . . .

. . . and lighten it up . . .

. . . and take away Jacob and remove part of Allison . . .

. . . and add a new manager . . .

. . . and add another AutoZoner . . .

. . . and here’s Bella . . .

. . . and here are Bella’s feet . . .

. . . and here’s Allen . . .

. . . and the top part of Jacob can go here . . .

. . . and now we crop out the other Allen, posterize it, and here’s the final image:

But then we changed the arrangement a bit:

And added a word balloon and put the image into the formatted PowerPoint unit.

In our meeting this morning, I’d like to commend Jason for

earning an Extra Miler award!

I do feel pulled between multiple

priorities. It’s frustrating!

It is hard to balance customer service

and our other tasks. We all face

that problem!

Please remember our customers are always our first priority. Our AutoZone value “Puts

Customers First.”

That’s an odd thing for Angie to say! I wonder if

she understands how important being an Extra

Miler is to us?

Yeah, I’m sorry I was so late. I’ve been having trouble with my car

lately. After I had dinner I couldn’t get my car to start.

By the time I could get it to start, I was late coming back to work.

Exactly! I’m glad you understand.

Maybe now you’ll be more likely to look for

opportunities to go the Extra Mile for a customer.

It’s a very rewarding experience!

I will do that.
