Please Hold While I Remain Employable
What it does
Professional composure has been placed in front while the actual emotional response damages the furniture backstage.
Use it when
- Customer service requires a calm voice during internal fury.
- Your honest reply would create an employment event.
- Another person's anger must be met with trained politeness.
For example
- “I completely understand your frustration,” you say, reopening the policy for the ninth time.
- The client calls the final draft ‘a fun starting point.’
- A customer screams about a coupon that expired during the previous administration.
