The following unsolicited letters were received

prior to the establishment of this www website.

However, the letters are 100% genuine.

Dear Mr. Saade,

I'm sure that since the People article you've had many requests for your

cards and this is indeed another. I am also sure that accompanying each

of these requests are personal stories of ill treatment by insensitive, rude

sales people. The following is mine:

Between the time I read the article about you and my decision to order a

package of your cards, I had occasion to go shopping for some new

clothes. Being a not so small woman, it is occasionally difficult to find

clothes in my size. However, I am not so gargantuan as to merit the treat-

ment I received in a particular store. While looking around, I noticed that

most of the clothes were in smaller sizes than I wear. Not wanting to

waste my my entire evening in a store that doesn't carry my size, I add-

ressed the following question to the only saleslady available in the store:

"What sizes does this store carry?".

Her reply: "fourteen."

I responded: "This store only carries one size?"

Her reply (as she gave me a head to toe once over): "Well, six to

fourteen."

As you can guess, I was highly insulted. Of the 50 cards you send me,

number 1 will be personally delivered to the store manager where I was

so rudely treated.

Might I suggest we get together and compile this and other stories in a

book? We could call it. Saade Tales.

Thanks for reading this letter. Keep smiling.

Sincerely,

Valarie_______ --Chuluota, FL

Hi! George.....$- enclosed for (50) "customer comment cards". Clever idea.

In frustration of correspondance problems, I'll share this 'attention getter"

with you: address the letter to "Someone with Intelligence AND Authority".

Response guaranteed.

Another ploy I often use is....."I'm sorry for you. It's too bad you have to use

untrainable clerks."

Jack ______ --Grand Rapids, MI

Dear George:

Please send me two packets of your cards. My sister and I have been writing notes

to employers for years on good or bad service and this will make the task even easier.

I own two retail businesses here in Kitsap County and I always appreciate input from

the people that are the reason I can stay in business!!

Sincerely,

Rick_____--Bremerton, WA

Dear Mr. George Saade,

I had really enjoyed your story in People Weekly Magazine "your right," there are a lot of rude people. When

I was about 18 or 19 and got my first job: if I was rude once to people I got fired on the spot! Thank you for your article.

Jeanette_______--Mineral Ridge, OH

Dear Mr. Saade:

If the great American economic engine is to survive, it's gonna be through the good offices of just such as you.

Congratulations on the success of your job performance cards, and I hope you get rich off them.

I enclose something similar I did about ten years ago after I walked out of _______at Lenox Square. At least

four clerks were engaged in animated conversation while I stood waiting to part with about two hundred bucks.

Being a country lad I assumed _______ must have become a do-it-yourself clothing store--I never went back.

Feel free to copy my card, adapt it, whatever. I'm just tickled to see another real fighting man.

Sincerely yours,

Charles_______--Atlanta, GA

I love your idea...I needed one of these cards last Fri.

The ultimate in rudeness at a restaurant.

I'm not over it yet. Please send pack

of 50....Thank you. Ruth _____--N Tonawanda, NY

Dear George,

When I saw your article in the People's Magazine I felt like I had written it! I encounter so many rude

people at the grocery store, department stores, etc. I have even called to complain to store manager.

I think your performance cards are a wonderful idea. Please send me a pack of 50. I wish I had them

yesterday-I could have passed out 3 very easily and I'm happy to say I know of 2 other people who

would have received an excellent mark!

Not all workers are bad they just make it easier to spot the friendly, courteous ones. I know my

husband and I try to really praise the clerks who have a smile and a kind word. These people are rare.

Sincerely,

Lois _______ Akron, OH

Dear Mr. Saade,

My name is Lisa _______ and I can't tell you how many times I wish I would have had your cards.

My husband and I travel frequently and have been known to leave notes on anything we can find.

Enclosed is a check for a pack of your cards.

Lisa _______--Gainesville, FL

Mr. Saade,

I read the article in People Magazine about your Job Performance Cards. What A GREAT IDEA!

I usually make my feelings known by the amount of tip I leave but your way is MUCH BETTER.

Please send me a pack of your CARDS and Thanks!

Rhonda _______ --Davisville, WV

Dear Mr. Saade,

After reading a story about you in People Magazine, I am ordering these

cards for my husband. What a terrific way to release anger and frustration

without physically hurting anyone.

To: George Saade

What a great idea! I am a firm believer in thanking a person for a job well

done, but on the other hand, keeping my mouth shut for politeness sake if

someone is rude.

Finally, a polite come back to rudeness!

--Arvada, CO

Dear Mr. Saade:

I can not stand the offenses much longer. I need your Job Performance Cards

as soon as possible. Rolling the eyes and speaking to the manager is not

helping.

George:

Hurry! Get a patent on this--You are going to be rich. You probably saved

me a jail term for assault.

I have often wondered if I was the only person that resents sorry service.

Thanks!
