Pedicure people are rude. There's just no way around it. They point and talk about you in a foreign language with their little friends. They get pushy about painting flowers on your toes, annoyed if you keep your toes under the foot fans too long, and act all put out that you've come there to pay for their services in the first place. It's the worst customer service I've ever seen. It doesn't matter which place you go to either, they're all like that. I guess if you want to shell out $30+ for your toes you might be able to find someone who will be polite to you while they do it, but I wouldn't count on it.
Yesterday I went to get mine done, and halfway through the lady started talking really loudly to me about how it's either very moist, or very dry inbetween my toes (I think it's because they are flaking from a sunburn I got on my feet last weekend). I couldn't understand her well enough to determine exactly what was going on, other than she has a problem with my toes that she wanted me, and everyone else in the salon to know about it. Now everyone knows that I can resolve this issue by slathering vaseline all over my toes every morning. Regardless, this incident won't stop me from going back there again some time.

I agree to some extent. Some of my worst customer service experiences have been in regards to pedicures. Witness the debacle the day before the wedding.
I was reminded of this youtube video when I read your post.
