In this episode of 3 Old Broads and a Lady, we’re talking about customer service—or what’s left of it—and how much it has changed over the years.

From the Boomer expectation that “the customer is always right” and service meant personal attention and accountability, to today’s fast-moving, app-based “help yourself” world shaped by younger generations, we compare what customer service used to feel like versus what it feels like now. We also dig into the differences between Boomers and Zoomers when it comes to patience, expectations, and what “good service” even means anymore... with a slight detour to explore In-n-Out Burgers...

It’s a funny, sometimes frustrating, and very real look at how we’re all experiencing the same systems in very different ways.
