Recently, my wife Marcia and I had dinner at a restaurant called Zinburger. We love going there, but for a number of reasons we hadn’t been there in nearly five months. We always try to show kindness to the servers because it’s a busy place and they have to hustle to keep up. When the server came to our table to take our drink order, she looked at Marcia and said, “You’d like a 16-ounce Scrimshaw draft, right?” Then she looked at me and said, “And you’d like a 16-ounce Scrimshaw and a rye old fashioned.” As we nodded our heads in amazement, she said, “It’s been a while since you guys have been here.” Then she went off to get our drinks. The lesson here is that it doesn’t take much in the way of kindness to stand out in a busy restaurant. And if you are kind, the servers are not likely to forget you anytime soon.
