Employers everywhere are struggling to find work, leaving several companies understaffed and employees overworked. When you have exhausted, unhappy employees the ability and desire to help customers is just not there and understandably so, but as more people are vaccinated and the world becomes closer to its new normal, Covid will not be an acceptable excuse for poor customer service when people are spending their money.
