The old barber at the shop on campus is more positive in his relationship with students than the old lady who sells foodstuffs in the library. The first reason for saying that he has a more positive relationship with students is that the barber always welcomes students; however, the old woman ignores them. He comes out to the door to receive students whenever they come to his shop. He always advises them to study harder and be honest while he cuts their hair. On the other hand, the lady sits on the chair and ignores students whenever they visit her to buy foodstuffs. Furthermore, she intenitonally does not respond to students' asking for the price of goods and just keeps watch on them in order to catch a person who might steal her goods. The second reason that the old barber is more positive in his relationship with students is that he is kind to his customers, whereas she is rude and uncouth to them. He always offers students a cup of coffee before he begins to cut their hair. Also he washes their hair with his own hands after he finished cutting their hair; however, she always frowns and yells at the students who want to get correct change. Moreover, she has thrown an empty bottle at a student who persisted in getting change. In addition, the barber gives students who don't have umbrellas one when it rains after he gathers and repairs broken umbrellas. She, on the other hand, won't sell foodstuffs on credit even if a student is starving. It is impossible for me to imagine her giving a student an umbrella. But how ironical is the fact that stduents have a tendency not to go to such a kind barber's shop, whereas they have a tendency to crowd in the shop which the rude lady manages!
