Your job at the coffee shop can be holy if you treat the customers like they matter to God. They do.

GRATITUDE

WHAT THIS MEANS

Ordinary work is not a holding pattern you endure until something meaningful comes along. You spend your shift in front of a run of people who are tired, late, broke or being ignored by everybody else that day, and how you hand them a cup is a real decision with a real effect. Treating them as significant is not a trick you play to make a dull job tolerable. It is a sane response to the fact that they are.

On Saturday, learn two names and use them. Make eye contact once per customer. Notice how differently the shift runs.

A QUESTION TO SIT WITH

Would your customers notice if you saw them properly tomorrow?
