Read and understand the entire post line. The kid was not hosting. He was outside taking names on a tablet prior to going inside. Courtesy says if you are standing there with no one else in line, you open the door for the customer and greet them. Happiness and a good attitude are infectious. If you are an ass because someone else was an ass, that puts you right on their level.
It's the boomers and X'ers that are keeping us afloat. I'm late in the boomer generation, right at the end. I am HAPPY that I am. I still have the idea of being thankful for a job and doing it the best you possibly can. The only thing that I feel that I am owed is the $$$$$ that I have paid into the great social experiment that I will most likely not see much of. I am far from a silver spooner. But the idea that you can actually work hard and get somewhere is completely lost on the current crop of kids today. Even in my field where you would think that they would be beyond that type of thinking, kids come and go, change jobs every 2 years and expect promotions every time they do. It's really quite alien to me. I guess I am old now.
