A friendly one, though, most definitely. ;) Recently I had a very hard time with my pharmacy. While trying to get a big mistake cleared up, I was waiting for a manager, and the tech who had been helping me asked the person behind me for their last name so he could look up their prescription. He did this all without looking up from his computer. The whole exchange was painful to witness. At the end, the customer said to the young man, "It really would have been nice if you had looked at me while you waited on me." The guy was just dumbfounded. It just makes me appreciate all the more those people I come into contact with who are really THERE with you when they're helping you out. Politeness and friendliness go a looooong way!

That is part of the reason I moved to the area I live in now. It is like the old world of waving high as you drive by. A friendly hello and know the name of your neighbors. In St. Louis it was cold. And not many gave each other the time of day. That is wonderful. I so agree. That is part of the reason I moved to the area I live in now. It is like the old world of waving high as you drive by.
