Customer service is really not that common and unremarkable. Good customer service and sales ability are harder to come by. It seems like it could be common but sadly it is not in this digital age where you can completely avoid talking to someone to get something. So many old school folks are going by the wayside and more folks who just don't care or aren't getting paid enough to want to do a decent job are moving in and the training is getting poorer and poorer in some places or it is commission based and then you are all sorts of wonky. However I am glad you are learning more skills so you can get that paper and buy more bike stuff. That is what life is all about working hard to buy bike stuff that you don't ride much...I think??? LOL.
