Makes Me Think - Today, I walked into a small coffee shop in downtown Dallas around lunchtime and politely asked, "May I please have a Venti Soy Latte?" The guy behind the counter smiled and prepared my latte for me. As I pulled out my money, he said, "The latte is on me. You're the first person all day to say 'please.'" MMT

When I worked at Panera I always gave people their drinks for free if they were nice to me. It made getting yelled at by the other customers totally worth it.
