Observation: People are crazy!
Either people are crazy, or people are trying to drive me crazy. I haven't decided which one yet.
Forgive me while I rant, but it's actually pretty funny.
People come into the Jewelry Store to shop around. In the process they'll say "Can you clean my ring?"
I say "Sure". There's nothing better than clean Jewelry.
I put your ring in the Ultrasonic Cleaner, clean it, scrub it, bring it back out.
You look at how clean it is with all the beautiful sparkles. You get excited and say "Can you clean my other ring?" You hand me the ring.
No problem. (Do you see where this is headed?)
"Anymore?" I ask looking at your hands and arms.
"No" Silly laugh "That's it!"
I go back. Clean it. Scrub it. Steam it. Bring it back out.
You smile. "I forgot about my earrings." You hand them over to me.
I now smile and laugh a little. I keep that smile planted firmly on my face as I walk back to the shop.
(Crazy is just around the corner...)
Sonic, Scrub, Steam, back out.
This is about the time that their friend pipes in and says "Can you clean mine too?"
(Silent Scream)
I'm losing my mind.
Dear customers: Can't you clean all your items at once?
Is it really necessary to clean one ring at a time? Come on! When you walk into the Jewelry Store just hand them over. Rings, Bracelets, Earrings, Pendants... I'll clean them. They'll be sparkling new. You'll love them.
But, 1 ring at a time??? BONKERS!
I know what it is. It's the Jewelry Cleaning Curse. Clean Jewelry is Contagious. Addictive. It Hypnotizes us. You see it and you just want more. Nothing wrong with that. All those little sparkles sink in...
"It's beautiful!"
This beauty reminds you of your other Rings, Bracelets, Anklets, Nose Rings...
But, when we ask you about cleaning this other stuff, hand them over!
Because if I hear, "Oops, one more thing..."
I'm going to, well... I'm not going to do anything. But, I'm surely going to think it.
And trust me. You don't want to know WHERE I'm thinking about cleaning your Jewelry.
Ker-flush! One ring at a time.
Hence the smile! :)
