I was a Geek Squad employee, and before that a Best Buy customer service rep for several years. Something I noticed was that the worst days were the ones with the fewest customers.

When we were busy I couldn't be lazy--there was just too much work to do. But on slow days I hated every single customer who walked up to the counter because it felt like they were interrupting me.

I've noticed this from the other side as well. Ever try to order something from McDonald's at 1:00 am?

I feel opposite. On slow days, it nice to have something to do, but not exhausting overload.
