Hey everyone..
Today a guy came in with about 5 people carrying tons of full bags from other stores. This wasn't because he was a celebrity or someone who has body guards, it was because he was in a wheel chair. Not only was he just in a wheel chair, he was a person being sponsered by the Make A Wish Foundation. For those of you who dont know, the Make A Wish Foundation was invented to fufill the "dying wishes" of people with terminal illness or diseases. This guys last wish? To have a limo take him to the mall, and go on a shopping spree. He got $2800 dollars to shop with. This is ALL he wanted. Not meeting a celebrity who inspired him, not buying a car or house for his family, not a vacation to Hawaii - he wanted to shop.
So for all of you who feel like your job might not be important because you work retail, remember that you may have just fufilled someone's life-long dream by helping them pick out their seemingly unimportant jacket.
