A reminder to everyone over the holidays: The malls are busy, - TopicsExpress



          

A reminder to everyone over the holidays: The malls are busy, the restaurants have long wait times. Your five minute beef carpaccio might take ten, and you might have to hold your scented candle for an extra few minutes while standing in line to pay at bath and bodyworks. Instead of getting mad at the cashier, or impatient with your server, be kind. Be gracious. Be festive. While you enjoy a holiday cocktail with your family, your server is spending time away from theirs. Yes - they do it out of choice, and they do it for the money, or because they love the industry. That doesnt wipe away the fact that theyve been on their feet for 12 hours during the busiest time of year, watching others partake in festive cheer and rituals they can only be a spectator to. These front line workers have wives who miss them. Kids who wish they were around for Santa pictures or walks at Candy Cane Lane. Parents who see empty place settings on Christmas Eve. If you notice theyre lacking in Christmas spirit, this helps you understand why. A high five and a hug to anyone who goes out of their way (in tips or in kind words) to help them get through the day:)
