so I was at work this afternoon and I'm the Kid's Club attendant at the gym that I work for, but we just opened so there aren't really any kids yet so I've been doing little odd jobs for my managers and whatnot, anyways, I went to work and there were no kids, as usual, so I asked what I could do. my manager said that I could go clean the women's locker room. I proceeded to take the broom into the locker room and sweep the showers, stalls, and floors. I came out and asked where the mop was and my supervisor asked me why and I told him that I was going to mop the locker room since I had nothing else to do. I then noticed that the owner of the gym was smiling at me and she looked up at me and said, "Thanks for putting in extra effort and showing me why I hired you." IT FELT SO GOOD TO HEAR THOSE WORDS. I've been feeling belittled and unimportant at my job until now.
I just wanted to share this story with you all and tell you that if you see someone putting in extra effort, give them praise, it just might make their day.
