As in any business, we are serving our customers, and we want them to return. Arguments among your co-workers will not be tolerated. If you are having an issue with a co-worker, be sure to solve the problem in a private area and time. If this cannot be done, you are expected to act in a professional manner and leave your feelings behind. If you must confront a patron who is breaking a rule or policy, pleasantly inform the patron of the unacceptable behavior and explain the policy to them. If they do not understand and things get out of hand, you are to remain calm, and seek further assistance from another co-worker or professional staff member.
