[Fredslist] Fwd: "Being Nice"

Sat Aug 2 20:56:42 EDT 2014

Here is my story that continued today even before I saw this! Our new rescue dog Eddie was groomed a month ago by someone who did such a great job that I called the next day to tell him.  He was shocked and said he always gets nasty calls!  He thanked me over and over again.  Today we brought Eddie again for his grooming and the groomer came out personally to get Eddie and again thank me for the call.  Makes everyone feel good - especially when they deserve it!

I've also done so for many years. Recent example was stopping in to the Ray's pizza on 7th ave to thank them for my late night deliveries and let them put a face to the address. Told them they were the best, and they went from a general 2pm post lunch pout to smiles all around.

Easy to do. Pay it forward...

Many years ago I stopped by the booth of my own bank in a business showcase event.  The only reason to stop was to say that I have been a loyal customer for 20 years and  to let them know that they are doing a good job servicing my account.  During this chat one of the man gave me his business card and told me to contact him with any needs I may have in future.  I didn’t know it that time, but over the years he became my banking advisor, solver of my problems and a somewhat friend.  I referred business to him over the years.

I am guessing that the majority of folks who write or phone companies do so to complain about something....who hasn't!

IDEA: How about all Gothamites during this month (for starters) make at least one "thank you....nice job....your employee was excellent, etc." gesture.

I recently did and wow did the results make me feel good. The company that services our swimming pool is the largest in New Jersey. We have been using them for years with satisfactory results. This season I was really impressed with the man who came weekly to do the servicing. I phoned the company's owner telling him in detail why his employee was outstanding.
Two weeks later I found out this fellow was promoted to service manager!

"It feels good to be nice"
