This week I decided to try something new. I had decided that I was way too abrasive to the people that call into my job each day, and made a vow to myself that I was going to be nice to everyone who called my job. I'm not always nice on the phone... too many times when I pick up the phone I just think of a voice, not about the person who it belongs to, or about the things they're going through that day. I want to be someone who brightens the day of people who call, someone that people look forward to chatting with. So yesterday I tried it.
I have several incidents I'd like to rant about, but it's past my bedtime, so let me just sum it all up by saying:
I failed. I flopped. I sucked.
But tomorrow is a new day, filled with new challenges and possibly nice yummy chinese food. I'm not giving up, I'm going to try again... I really DO want my words to be a gift to others.

Eph 4:29 Watch the way you talk... Say only what helps, each word a gift.

Isn't it good that God gives us each new day to start all over again and get it right?! Thanks goodness for His grace or we'd all be stuck.
I also try to be as friendly as possible on the phone and in person. And it was especially hard today, because we had a couple who came in, got treated, got ugly with both of us and did not want to pay. But they did, hee.
