No matter where your customers get service, they’ll expect outstanding customer experience (CX), so you’ll have to be ready. Make sure your contact center is set up for digital success behind the scenes so that you can provide the experiences your customers demand.

Then, two more servers brought a few more meals a moment later, and another server showed up just after that with the rest of our meals.

The other day I was at the airport and ordered a chicken sandwich from one of the “to go” restaurants. When it came time to pay, they didn’t ask me for a tip. For a moment, I thought, “Did I go back in time?” This is just my opinion, but the concept of tipping is getting out of hand. I go to a fast-food restaurant and order a burger and fries. The person behind the counter takes my money and gives me my food.
