A Little Thank You…

goes a long way. If it’s alright, I just want to share a little story with you. It’s not a big deal, but it made me happy anyway. Today at work one of our regular customers came in. Before she left she said that coming in and seeing me each week is the best part of her day. She feels like she gets beaten down at her job and she looks forward to me smiling, greeting and chatting with her. That totally made my day. It made my week. Getting a compliment like that means so much to me. I always believe in the little things and always make it a point to offer more praise, support and compliments than not. I guess I’m just wired that way.

After work, I got on the Muni and headed home. The driver was great. She actually called out all of the stops along the route and announced all of the connecting lines. She even took the time to mention why we had to wait a couple minutes at one point. When I was at my stop I decided to go to the front of the bus and say thank you. I told her that she was the most pleasant driver and thanked her again. She gave me the nicest smile and said, “Thank you for appreciating, honey. Have a good night.” It’s just the little things. Just a little thank you.
