My special client today was a very gentle and loving older lady. She made me think of my grandmother

Some lady decided to be friends with me. She wanted to sit down at the bar and have a chat with the bartender (me) while she had lunch. She told me she had been laid off and that she was feeling down. We chatted for a bit and then she left.

A guy came into my store with his daughter and she decided to get me, the clerk who told her looked pretty in her dress, a Christmas gift. The little girl told me "I want you to wear the same dress as me!" so she selected the same one but bigger lol

No good customers today... It's fine! I'll go home and play some video games. Not every day can be a great one.

I told a guy I was kind of struggling, he had a beer and he left me a $100 tip! Who said Christmas miracles are not real?

I didn't have anything outstanding happen to me today, but I am lucky enough to be employed in a difficult time for many. I cannot complain at all, I have food on my table and a roof over my head :)
