Whatcha eating today VSGers...Saturday!!!

Day 9 of Shelluary ~ "And the more he treated her as though she were really very nice, the more Lotty expanded and became really very nice, and the more he, affected in his turn, became really very nice himself; so that they went round and round, not in a vicious but in a highly virtuous circle." Elizabeth von Arnim in The Enchanted April 1922

Being in customer service I have found this to be so TRUE. When I get the "I'm angry and as I result I'm going to take it out on you calls" I just breath deep and TRY not to let their attitude affect mine and by the end of the conversation it's MY helpful and pleasant attitude that affects them. I live my life simply with the attitude of "don't treat people how THEY treat you BUT how you would WANT to be treated." So be nice if you want people to be nice, smile if you want people to smile, say hello if you want people to say hello...bring joy if you want joy!

I was thinking of you and hoping you were okay.  I know lots of people lost power up there! 

We're all fine. We are very lucky we didn't lose power because most of our neighbors did. The one I feel worst for in my house is my son's service dog Captain Kirk. He's a mini dachshund and he gets totally lost in the snow! All you can see is a little tail sticking out of the white!!

GREAT arm exercise =) glad to see you posting!

Hehe, no kidding Ms. Shell. I did strength training on my arms yesterday at the gym too. I should have just waited until this morning. They're killing me now! 

Good morning, Ms Shell!  I hope you are feeling better today!  Excellent post as usual.  Having been on the other side of customer service myself, I ALWAYS say to a rep or whomever that I realize that he or she did not cause my problem and that I am not taking it out on them.  Do unto others ...
