    Last week the Favorite Wife gives me a call in the morning. She’s chewing my ear off because of the lack of hospitality at a TCF bank on the east side of St Paul. It’s been this way for years…I don’t know way she would expect anything differant today??

    She made a deposit using the Drive thru…and the teller never said one word to her from the beginning to end of the transaction. Personally…I like it when they don’t open they’re yap.

    So…she’s in a bad mood…sometimes that’s all it takes for most of us I guess.

    She hangs up with me then, about a hour later…still fuming about the deposit experiance…the light turns yellow and she stops (this is a odd occurance in it self!)

    So this car pulls up on her passanger side…and as she takes a drink of coffee, glances over. There was a “big guy” that turned his head, gave a little nod and winked at her…and not in an uncomfortable way if you know what I mean.

    That one wink by a stranger changed the whole outlook on the day for her.

    Moral of this story?

    Do something nice for a stranger and make their day…and…bank at US Bank.

    to go along with that i was on a mission trip with my church and we went to queens new york, one of the 5 days out there we were working at the salvation army serving food i was the runner and when they ran out of food i ran up stairs and got more on the way back i saw a guy sitting in the corner he was homeless but helped out so he could get a little extra food from time to time, he was taking a break reading the paper in the corner we kept the carts.
    they always tell us youth to just stop and say hi to some people it will make there whole day because most of the time nobody will talk to them for days. just acknowledge there there.
    so i though about it and i did i stoped for a moment and said hey hows it going my name is colten, he looked up puzzled and then said nice to meet you my name is randy, then continued to say how it was a rough morning but now the day is starting to shape up, i said well thats good to hear then the rest of my crew started yelling at me to get more food they were running out. so i told randy hope you day continues to get better and have a good one got to go. as i get across the room i hear “hey colten” i turn and look and its randy waving and he said “thank you very much” and then went on reading his paper and i went on my way.

    moral of the story…
