• Responsibility of staff towards Customer.
  A customer, whether coming to us directly or through some agent, is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us - we are dependent on him. He is not an outsider in our business - he is a part of it. We are not doing him favor by serving him, he is doing us a favor by giving us the opportunity to do so.
  
  If we don't take care of our customers, somebody else will.
