It’s all good so far. 8/20/13
One thing that we have noticed on this trip is the high level of customer service we are encountering regardless of who we are dealing with.
The young man at the olive oil shop at Ghiradelli Square, who kept his sense of humor inspire of having to take three tries to seal a very small bottle of white truffle olive oil.
The desk clerk at the small hotel in San Francisco working with us to hold luggage and extend the valet parking so we could do our tour of the wharf and then offered a much needed chance to recover after the climb up Mount Powell to the hotel.
The random bakery hostess at Boudin on the wharf encouraging us to pick up one of the sourdough teddy bears, just because they needed to be held, since do many depart the bakery to be eaten.
The concierge at the Andaz in Napa, who arranged to get some really nice flowers for me to surprise Sandra with.
The waitress at ZuZu’s the Tapas Restaurant in Napa who worked with the tapas rookies and made some excellent and tasty recommendations.
The folks at the coffee shop that made recommendations for a more substantial breakfast for my protein junkie wife who woke up this morning with a serious scrambled egg jones.
The folks at the Oxbow Market for restoring my wife with a scrambled egg crepe fix.
These folks have kept the caring in their work. Maybe I am just not looking hard enough back in the world, and anticipate apathy. Perhaps we need to all take a little time to reflect on whether or not we are working at a job or in our vocation.
Perhaps we also need to realize that we might be dealing with someone new to a position and work with them to see that things work out rather than taking an issue as a personal affront.
Taking away another reminder that those I have met in the Golden State are living by the Golden Rule. Maybe I should try harder too.
