Sure, it's not the same.  It's also completely unnecessary.

Think about it like, well, any job where you are "customer-facing," ... maybe it's retail, maybe it's being a waiter or waitress, maybe it's working on customer service at a call center ... whatever.  The specifics can be muddy with this analogy.

Work any of these jobs for any amount of time, you're going to run into an unruly customer.  It sucks!  Especially since, most of the time, they're taking out frustration on you for something you have no control over!  I didn't set the milk prices in this grocery store!  I'm just passing the gallon jug over the scanner thingy and it spits out a number.  What do you want from me, man?

However, if the customer gets mad at you and completely acts like a POS, that doesn't give you justification to start sounding alarms on your phone and shouting at the top of your lungs.  "CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS GUY?  HE WANTS A DISCOUNT ON THE MILK!  IMAGINE WHAT THE DAIRY FARMERS WOULD THINK IF THEY EVER SAW THIS GUY!  GET OUTTA HERE, BOOMER!  GO BUY YOUR MILK AT WAL-MART AND SEE IF YOU CAN GET YOUR DISCOUNT THERE, LOSER!"

See the issue?

Wait, I thought SHL wasn't a job... I've been lied to.
