[Fredslist] Fwd: "Being Nice"

Sun Aug 3 17:28:31 EDT 2014

I also have long been a proponent of this and it's a hard call which  
benefit trumps - the sweet, grateful receipt of the kind words or the  how good I 
feel saying my bit and being tickled by the  response.  There are virtually 
daily opportunities to  do this.  Ladies and Gents:  This is the simplest, 
never fails  win-win!  I'm smiling just reading everyone's remarks and 
adding my  own!

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.

A pleasing variation on  our "It's better to give than receive..." Mantra.  
 Thanks  Richard!

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"
