What a great day

[synapticjava]

See, it balances out the STOOPID day I had yesterday. This sweet old couple came in to work today and asked me various questions about printers and what not. I was able to talk them down from an $800 monster they didn't need to a $200 photo printer. They were so happy with how I handled them, they bought the replacement plan (that's what I get the commission on, not the actual product), took a business card, and talked me up to both Phil and my DM. I like it when I can actually help someone. That's $600 they can spend on more gifts or themselves or whatever.

Goofed off most of the day at work, got a ton of compliments from Phil about how great I've been while working with Biff, and how I'm doing such a great job. Makes me perty darn happy.

Then, I come home to find a message like that from Tom...It just makes me smile like I haven't in a long long time. I have to admit...I'm loving life right now.

Ah, the occasional but shockingly rewarding pleasant side of retail. Good on you for looking out for the oldsters; many people gleefully take advantage of 'em. You rock.
