Subject: "Being Nice"

I am guessing that the majority of folks who write or phone companies do so to complain about something....who hasn't!

IDEA: How about all Gothamites during this month (for starters) make at least one "thank you....nice job....your employee was excellent, etc." gesture.

I recently did and wow did the results make me feel good. The company that services our swimming pool is the largest in New Jersey. We have been using them for years with satisfactory results. This season I was really impressed with the man who came weekly to do the servicing. I phoned the company's owner telling him in detail why his employee was outstanding.
Two weeks later I found out this fellow was promoted to service manager!

"It feels good to be nice"
