"Denise" (my boss) had the pleasure of visiting a physician's practice recently and quickly noticed that she, along with a few patients in the lobby were the only ones smiling. That reminded her that when interviewing new applicants, we meet many personalities before selecting "the right one" for the right position. "Gladys" says, wouldn't it be great if you could video the interview and hit the rewind and replay button after the new employee has been working a while, watch it with them and remind them how important it is to KEEP the job....not just to GET the job. Rewind & Remind!
After the doctor's visit, "Denise" made a trip to a hardware store....and guess what, there were smiles all around. More than 6 people asked if she needed anything....or if they could help her find anything. Have you ever complimented those employees? Have you ever given your business card to someone in a retail environment, wait staff, etc. and ask them to call you if ever they are interested in employment? Denise has. In fact, she says that you can hire a positive attitude and teach the skills and their attitude will always "SHINE" through but when you hire a negative attitude...their attitude will always "SMELL" through.
Did you know that a SNEEZE....something you don't really want to be shared with others.....will zoom out of your mouth at the speed of over 600 mph? Doesn't it make you wonder WHY a smile....something you SHOULD want to share with others can take so much longer to get there?
Why not pass along "atta girls & atta boys" to those around us that are truly "Making A Difference" and watch them SHINE!
Enjoy your weekend ~
"Gladys Friday" style....with a smile!
