I was at a hotel in San Francisco two nights ago and was unwinding in the Concierge lounge. I noticed the hostess was working hard getting things ready for the next morning, so I stopped and talked with her. After we spoke for a few minutes I thanked her for all that she does to make the lounge hospitable. Prompted by Todd’s birthday request, I gave her a quick hug and thanked her again for all she does. She thanked me and told me she appreciated it.

It was a small, somewhat random act, but it brightened my day and I think the hostess appreciated it too. -Michael

Keep up the good work!
