Last Thursday and today, I had a really tedious job to do for a customer. It was rather mind-numbing, repetitive and boring. But when he came to pick up his job, besides handing me a check for the total, he also handed me a thank you note, along with a gift certificate for the local pizza place. I was quite shocked and pretty blown away by it. Basically he thanked me for doing this "tedious task" and for the top-notch service.
So many times, jobs are done for little or no thanks, or any goof is loudly proclaimed. I appreciated this little token so much, and think that I am going to pass the favor on. Hmmm, maybe the guy that mows my lawn or the postman?
