Pride

In a retail, sales or support setting it's fuck your pride, you're being paid to be nice to people and sell them stuff, not point out when they're wrong. Don't like it? Tough, change jobs.

It doesn't matter what you do, the same skills are essential. Even if you don't have to interact with customers you will with other staff, maybe suppliers, engage in contract negotiations, external contracters etc. Whenever you're dealing with people if you're smart enough to deal with the properly you'll come out on top.
