Should we thank the person (e.g. cashier, waitor, salesgirl) serving us or should they thank us as customers who patronize their business? Me thinks it should be both ways.
As a person offering a service, we should put ourselves in the shoes of the customers and offer the best service we can, who wouldn't be comforted to receive good customer service? As a customer, let's have respect for all who serve us, we are no kings or queens, neither are they servants or of lower status. Everyone is working hard for a living but earning more or less does not determine if a person should be more respected or not.
It doesn't cost more to be kind but it can brighten someone's day with small gestures of appreciation. "Thank you" is not difficult to say and it will break the barriers among strangers, thank the cleaner who cleared your trays or vacumed your cubicle, thank the cashier who processed your payment, thank the waitor/ waitress who helped to top up your drink or served you food, thank the salesperson who offered you good advice on what to buy.
Make gratitude and appreciation part of your everyday habits. It will make your life so much happier :)smile emoticon
