I'm in my 20s and these are still my inner thoughts. I blame having done retail and technical call centre jobs. Babysitting customers was always frustrating, I don't like other people waiting on me hand and foot.
I was getting tailored for a suit once and that was bad enough. Then when he brought some shoes he unlaced them and knelt down to do the laces up for me. I had never been so uncomfortable in my life.
Whilst basic manners are always necessary in social situations, the point of this sketch is that trying to make the client-servant relationship friendly and informal usually ends up having the opposite effect. Forced interaction is much worse than polite acknowledgement.
You shouldn't feel that bad about it, if you are a polite and considerate person yourself. I worked in retail, and it gave me pride in my job to make people happy, as long as they were as polite as I were. There is nothing wrong with a customer asking for help or being helped.
Totally agree. I always say thank you and compliment customer service people who make an effort. People who treat personnel like they're their servants are the scum of earth.
I have worked in public service including some just 'serivce' jobs my whole Life. Being overly or insistingly friendly with people who are just trying to do their job creates a great deal of tension when the worker is busy-the 'polite' customer takes it very personally.The middle class guilt also comes out in trying to make conversation where none is needed- especially when you don't feel the need to leave a tip.You are not kind, just needy and it takes more energy to adjust to your personality.
@@r.alexander9075 correct. By all means, be polite, kind and well mannered. But don't act like you're unworthy or un-wanting of the service. In the end, you're just one of the 100s or 1,000s of people that form part of the job.
I completely agree. As a service worker (cashier), the best social interactions while doing a service job are the ones that happen to feel personal *even though neither side is really trying* to make it personal. Whether because something unexpected happens and you happen to have an honest emotional reaction to that and open up, or because you just happen to feel like opening up because you like the person As a customer, feel free to unintrudingly *offer* to the worker to make your relationship more personal, but don't force them into a situation where they're made to feel like a dick if they "leave you hanging"
This is actually a very nuanced skit. Mitchell's character feels so uncomfortable asking these people to perform the jobs they were given to perform because he fears he is coming off as an entitled ass. However by acting so uncormfortable about it all especially in regards to 'are you in college, are you an actor, do you have money problems' he'd implying there is something wrong with those jobs and coming off as an entitled ass. In other words he's terrified of forcing someone else to perform a demeaning task for him, but his actions in response to that implies that he thinks that the task is demeaning, which makes the situation worse than it actually is for him and for the servor where all would have been fine if he just respected the professional relationship.
That's the beauty of Mitchell and Webb... they're experts at voicing the inner thoughts that many of us have, often at the subconcious level. Btw I'm the 159th person to let you know that you're not alone :)
That's what it's like to have social anxiety! You think you can clearly read other peoples' thoughts and in circumstances where you happen to cause even the slightest trouble or discomfort to another person it is CLEAR to you that they must hate you for doing so. That constant feeling of being judged for everything you do or do not, is what causes you to be extremly conscious about everything in social situations which at the end of the day causes anxiety by not wanting to make a mistake while keeping up this whole charade. It's really tiresome...
@@dairebarefoot9320 uh ok, but it also can be a symptom of social anxiety. it's like saying to someone who's had depression for many years that it's just a phase and will pass because you yourself were depressed for a few weeks in college. very rude to say this person doesn't have social anxiety, you have no idea.
It's weird how Mr Jeffries seems both selfish and selfless in this. He wants to treat these people well, but at the same time he looks down on them for being working class. He even pretends to be interested in their lives so he asks questions (because of societal pressure?). He's desperate not to be a snob, but at the same time thinking that they need his help is somewhat snobbish. In the end I think he just wants to clear his conscience for joining the system' as he put it, & eat his cake too.
I like to think that Robert Webb's character is intentionally chaning jobs to ensure consecutive encounters with Mr. Jefferies, in some sort of attempt at gaslighting.
I feel this way internally all the time in these kinds of situations. It’s awful. I wish I could just do things myself and then I wouldn’t feel like I’m pretending to be better than someone else.
This is so good. Exactly how 'working class' people would feel about the elite condescension implicit every time they they talk about.. the working class.
+The Joker what kind of restaurants do you take your dishes to the counter? Most restaurants I find the waiters have cleared up well before we leave (or there is just coffee).
Once I bought a suit in a shop and the vendor insisted on kneeling down and tie my - or the shops - shoes for me. It was so embarrasing and degrading for both of us, but only in my perception. "I don't need you wiping my ass for me, I'm a grown man!"
This isn't how I feel about people providing a service for me but it's exactly how I feel when its my birthday. The whole idea of "I'm not that special, why go through the discomfort of treating me special for this one day."
As a service worker (cashier), the best social interactions while doing a service job are the ones that happen to feel personal *even though neither side is really trying* to make it personal.

It's both amusing and sad to see so many comments that don't understand what is actually happening. While some is middle class guilt, it's mostly seeing those professions as beneath them and beneath anyone with any intelligence and look upon them with pity as they aren't capable of directing their own lives. They often look at different classes of people in the same manner.
Thank you and let me return the compliment straight away, yours is an interesting perspective too. :) Indeed there may be some truth to the idea that clients are 'simply' (although it isn't a simple process) projecting... Also, the whole idea of a paid job being exploitation seems to rest on the misunderstanding that if you're getting paid for something, you don't have the choice of not doing it. Yet very seldom IRL is anyone in so much money trouble that they can't afford to say no.
This is what happens when everyone you've ever met in your life looks like slightly-altered versions of Robert Webb, excluding the fact that dating would be a nightmare, you'd still inevitably go mental.
I usually sit in the front of taxis and chat with the driver. They're usually very friendly people and it's never been a problem. Though if - and it's never happened before - the front seat was full of litter or anything else, I'd take that as a sign and sit in the back.
+krim7 I haven't once sat in the back of a taxi when I was the only passenger. And no taxi driver has ever complained about it. To be fair though, I didn't toss their stuff on the floor before taking a seat.
Is there a word to describe seemingly selfish altruism? Let me explain: I don't want to be served, because it feels uncomfortable. There are different levels to this, of course, with some more extreme than others. Bellhops carrying my luggage, as an example. Yet, I know that this is their job, and if nobody wishes to be served in such a way, then they won't have a job anymore. So, despite my actual aversion to having someone carry my bags, I allow it. Which means someone does a task I should be perfectly capable of doing myself, and I get to be that much more lazy. A seemingly selfish action, but not done for a selfish reason. If I were truly selfish, I would carry the bag myself, because that would make me feel better about myself (selfish goal), and the detriment is that this person would have less of a reason to work there. I think it would be selfish to have someone fired merely so I can feel good about myself.
I wonder if the music playing in the restaurant is a "smooth jazz" version of the theme from "Monty Python and the Holy Grail". And I wonder if it's intentional.
You can say it like that of course but I would say that you will simply see how it is to interact with people who provide your wages instead of, currently the other, way around. Not being biased just learning more on how the social interactions work.
I think the point of the sketch is the opposite of this; people hung up about service relationships are imaginging an injustice that isn't really there. It's not the relationship between a serf and a suzerain, it's a professional relationship that would be enjoyable if people nowadays would only relax and let themselves be served. Someone eating an expensive meal pretending he and the waiter are 'mates' is condescending, since one is paying the other for a job he should be able to take pride in.
it makes it take longer to say things which is annoying if not actual hindrance but we do it any way to avoid upsetting each other, that shouldn't be a concern with someone I'm paying
This sketch is hilarious! Mitchell and webb created this skit to be LAUGHED AT not psychoanalized! Some of your comments are actually behaving like the guy in the skit because you're so up tight and pseud deep! The jokes on you! Lighted up guys .
