Icecream Sundae Smile

--by Aurelia, posted Jun 13, 2007

The weather is finally warming up and so off we go to the local icecream shoppe for some yummy icrecream sundaes.

It was crowded but we finally got our turn to order. My daughter and I watched as the girl made our desserts. It's hard to scoop the icrecream and she was getting tired, I could tell her hand hurt from scooping all night. Then I thought of the Waffle House Story that Paul wrote earlier...and I told my daughter I was going to give her a nice big TIP...which nobody was doing, not even a tip period!!!

Well, :) When she handed us our icecream, I handed her $$$$ and She said "You already Paid the other lady." I said "I know, but I want to thank you for working so hard and for service with a SMILE!!! This money is your tip. " The biggest smile came across her face and I felt like a million bucks myself.

Giving feels good... :) ~Aurelia
