Did You Remember to Say “Thank You”?
Thank you.
It’s such a simple sentence, yet absolutely perfect and can certainly perk up someone’s day.
Happened to me today. I was just doing my job. Did some due diligence on a potential client. Prepared a customized introduction. Hyperlinked the PDF. Emailed it off to my managing partner.
I then left the left the office to go pay my car registration, only to find out I needed a smog test, and it was 4:40 p.m. on a FRIDAY, and the first place I called closed at 5:00 … if I could get there by 4:50 they could do it … ACK!!!!
I was a little bit frustrated, and then I got the following email from my managing partner, following up on the PDF:
I just wanted to thank you both for the work you did today to pull this off.
Wow. So simple. Yet, absolutely perfect.
So, did you remember to say “thank you” today??
Heather, this is a nice reminder of what is truly important. The seemingly little things are not so little, are they? I love gestures and words of appreciation, and am always so impressed when I observe someone saying or showing their gratitude. This always shows me what type of person I’m dealing with when they know how to say thank you.
Thank you, my friend, for hitting on topics and thoughts that are important, and for taking the time to share them with us.
