But it’s the small things that can make people around you feel like they count. With a phone interaction just saying thank you and you have been very helpful can make their day, when so many people yell and curse them . The same with fast food, the folks on the front lines customer service are taking a beating, the need kind words a smile and a thank you. You will see how grateful they are to be recognized as human beings also a little coin also helps to show gratitude.
