Hmm... seems backwards to me. Shouldn't psychic blow-jobs be given to the folks who behave reasonably and pleasant?

I like the idea of bringing back elevator operators.... and gas station attendants who actually ATTEND..

I'll second that.
Many studies have shown that when people go into banks they want Tellers in them not all machines.

With people who are nice to me it is easy to be nice to them, it is not a problem at all. It is the folks who rankle my nerves that it is harder to be pleasant to but in my line of work I still need to "Yes sir, right away, I will get that for you..." sort of thing even if I would rather tell them otherwise. I see that as a psychic blow-job, trying to please them-- but it is crap, I dont feel it.

I suppose I could try and come up with a better way to phrase it, subfever.
