Today I'm thankful for...
Politeness!
Working with the public can be...challenging, to put it nicely. People can be temperamental, and sometimes they take things out on you just because you're an easy target. Thankfully, in my current profession, this is the exception rather than the rule, but it is still nice to have interactions with polite people. Politeness goes a long way; it can make the difference between receiving adequate service and having someone go the extra mile for you. During the Christmas season, it's especially important to be polite to those who work in retail and the service industry. Goodness knows they need all of the politeness they can get!
