You find happiness in the funniest and unexpected places and for that , I thought given this opportunity I would share a little short story from last night . For many years I been employed as a bottleshop attendant (so as to fund my toys- you known!!) , and over the years , I 've met many strange people all with a story to tell .. Well, last night , this gentleman (regular) (homeless ) whom I 've served earlier in the evening (purchased his regular bottle of dry sherry) , came back into the store and demand a meeting with the duty manager and or principal of the establishment . The shop was full , and I drag myself away and asked whether I could help him, 'he stated , he wanted to make a report to the principal's of the established concerning a observation he had made over the years and wanted urgently to let them know ..I asked the bar staff to take him to the managers office on duty ..

At the close of my shift - I was provided a copy of the letter / notice that the person had wanted so urgently provided to the manager - it basically read in short - how he had been moved after all these years to have witness me providing him the courtesy , respect not found elsehwhere and further added that he at witnessed me over the years , head down and bum up doing my work whilst others stood there chatting amongst themselves - without regard to the customers needs '

I nearly fell over , so was the manager and pressed me hard as to whether I put the homeless guy up to it ?hahah

So - there you have .............what made me feel good !!! :sungum:

No worries reading that. Good work spinning, recognition from any source is worthwhile. Did you convince the boss that it was legitimate?

Great news corzza..happy for ya mate!

Couldn't agree more spinning. Some of the best happiness is unexpected from the most unusual places/people. Always a good feeling when someone recognises your hard work and speaks up about it!
