I (hopefully not for too much longer) sell Italian charms. I hear people's life stories all the time. They show me their bracelet and explain every charm.. tell me all about their cute little children, how they met their husband, their love of crochet (soap operas, soccer, painting... whatever hobby) The worst though is when customers order custom photo charms with pictures they bring in.They'll tell you all about their grandma who passed away, or one time someone's daughter (early 20's) had passed away in an accident and the person was putting her photo on a charm and told me all about it, she started crying, I didn't know what to say/do. Another time it was a customer's deceased daughter in-law who passed away while she expecting her what was to be the customer's first grandaughter. I also hear heart wrenching tales about pets... just horrible, makes me sad for the rest of the day when I hear stories like that...
