my mom raised me to write thank you notes. this was enforced throughout my "ticktocker" experience. (more on that later!) i was taught to take the time to thank people for the things they do for and / or give to you.
this maybe the best lesson i ever learned.
tonight, before a sales meeting, i had a rep come up to me and thank me profusely for taking the time to write him a thank you note for putting up my booth and helping at a recent trade show. he mentioned that he's been in sales for over 20 years and this is the first thank you note he has ever received.
wow. that note took a few minutes out of my life and positively impacted a relationship more than i ever would have dreamed.
we all need to learn how to say thank you. life is too hard without the "good stuff."

At least I did something right! I did earn a few gray hairs and spent too much money going through the whole tick-tocker thing! =)
ticktockers did kinda suck, but it was worth it. i learned table manners and everything. even if i choose when to use them. :-)
I just wish you wouldn't write me a thank you note every time I fart.
