Happy Bunny

 
I don't usually run errands on Monday
but I had to pay the light bill
before they turn my lights off
and I had to get some toilet paper and light bulbs...
When I was standing in line to pay my bill,
a woman dropped a penny on the floor.
Those of you who know me
know that a penny is very precious to me...
Normally, I would have told her
that she dropped a penny on the floor
and she would have picked it up herself
or let it go...
but this time,
I sacrificed bending down
to pick it up for her,
which you may know is a hard thing
for me to do
because of my back problems...
... but ah! @ my little random act of kindness!!!
When I was at Wal-Mart,
it was as if I was in a totally unknown store.
because they didn't just move one department around...
They moved the entire floor around!
Grr @ trying to find things...
especially because they weren't finished
and the signs were in the wrong places!!!
A man came up to me
to ask me where he could find a pen
that has all of the colors in one.
I don't work at Wal-Mart,
but I saw the cards
so we went to look for the pen.
I found him the very last pen they had!!!
LOL @ he said he never would have found it
and that the people from Wal-Mart
were not very helpful!
He said that women are like pens~
Some only write in one color,
but I am the kind of woman who
has all the colors!
LOL @ that was cute.
Then, a woman approached me
to ask me where the toilets were
so I gave her directions to get there.
OMG @ do all people think
I work at Wal-Mart? LOL
So the man was surprised
that the woman had asked me
where the toilets were,
even though I don't work there.
He said I have the kind of personality
that just naturally attracts people...
men and women...
and makes them feel comfortable.
What a nice compliment!
So I made three
random acts of kindness 
in one day! Yay!
I want to always be a blessing
wherever I go....
xx
 
P. S...
LOL @ people leaving comments
that I shoul go work for Wal-Mart.
You faile to rea
about my back problems supra...
not to mention my legs & my hip...
I have fallen four times since I have been in the Valley.
There is no way I can
physically work at Wal-Mart
but
thank you for your enthusiasm!

Sounds like a good day, Wini.  Putting smiles on other people faces always brightens my day.  LOL at working at Walmart.  I wondered if you'd hear that.  You could always sit on a chair and give direcitons (seriously, this is a joke).  They just changed our Walmart totally about a year ago.  It drove me crazy for so long trying to find things. Love ya, Chris

If I were you I would ask for my paycheck at the desk.  You are obviously more helpful than most of the people who actually work there.  We have the best customer service in the world at our Walmart.  I think that is because Southern people are just so darn nice.  Love the bunny.
Hugs, Joyce

Maybe, however, you can someday find a job that does fit in with your natural skills and abilities, and not stress the areas which are not as able (like your back).  :)
