In response to Tuesday’s rant, here are my raves.
1. When customer service is golden
The hotel guys here know me so well, they’ve decided to upgrade me to a room with a microwave and mini fridge for every single stay they can, because I’m such a good customer.
Companies? Take note. Customers do notice.
2. When I eat cake while reading an email about how pleased my client is with my work
Mmm. Cake. Always cheers me up. Not only that, my client is SO nice on this contract & told my broker they adored me.
Makes you wonder what the catch is, until you realize — they really ARE that nice.
3. When people are polite
.. everywhere. They wave you into a lane, they don’t try and get all up in yo’ space by tailgating you, and when they smile and tell you to have a great day.
I love it when other people are polite to each other too. I totally notice it & feel the warm & fuzzies.
4. When I get comments
Seriously, I read them.
I am not as gung ho to reply to every single one like some amazing uber-bloggers, but I do try to reply to all the questions or try and add a valid point if I see one.
5. When my mom calls to give me the scoop
She will phone on the pretense of telling me to watch “Dancing with the Stars” or “The Bachelor”, forgetting not only that I don’t like watching either show, but that I don’t own a TV.
Then she goes into her day, gossips about what happened at school & lets me know how the family is doing.
Love.

I live in the tri-state area and whenever someone waves me into a lane it makes all warm and fuzzy inside. There are still a few nice people here.

Awww 🙂 What a great list!
I, too, love to eat cake while reading praise from a customer…especially the triple chocolate chip slices that you can get at Target. 🙂
I love it when people are nice b.c they want to be instead of b.c they think they will get something in return.
And, I love it when people leave me comments. 😉 It makes me feel like someone is reading what I am writing and inspires me to deliver more each time.
This is a cute list. The one about your mother brought a smile to my face. It's always nice when your mom calls to just be a mom.
