I'm sorry, I haven't had time to sit down and write something good to publish these last few days. My stolen time is usually taken by work, or other peoples attention - anything else that just needs to be done before I get to start on my holidays. Just the way it always is around this time of the year. I guess everyone is just as stressed out as me.
This other day a coustumer told me that christmas has become a hustle. It's not like she was angry or sad or anything, the sentence just came out as any other statement, allthough I didn't think I heard her right the first time and might could have looked somewhat confused. I don't even remember how I responded, but I tend to give some kind of feeback that makes people state a reason for how they feel, so she gave me a look that didn't say anything less than...
"You're doing a very good job. I admire you for what you're doing, being here day in and day out, spending so much time helping people and only gets yelled at if you can't give them what they need. I don't think they would spend any of their precious time doing what you do. People tend to forget what christmas is all about," she said while I handed her the reciept. I still feel bad for not being able to do anything but smile and say thanks, 'cause the more I think of it, the more it means to me. This
only happens in movies. This
never happens to me.
I asked if I could help her with anything else, but she shook her head, said goodbye and headed for the entrance. It amazes me how little it takes to make each other happy. I didn't stop smiling for the rest of the day, and I really like thinking that only seeing that made someone elses day too!
Have you ever made someones day?
