Christmas crisis

Hello!

How are you guys doing today?

Yes I know, but I'm not late. This is my usual Mondays, bath, food, blog and for this time of the year working the schedule of everybody so we can have Christmas dinner at a fancy-schmancy Mexican restaurant, okay not so fancy-schmancy but still Mexican, the Three Amigos!

So this past weekend I had the first Christmas crisis in my household, we were debating I don't know what with my wife when she pulled out her customers bonus gifts, it seems that one of her customers gave her a Christmas card that she wasn't happy with. It seems the wording in the card didn't take her in consideration, it said to Chuck and family instead of her name. I told her that it was normal that these people used to know me before becoming her customer. She was fed up she said and that if they think so little of her and her work she was going to tell them to hire Chuck instead of her and see if he could go up the stairs to clean the rooms on the second floor.


Now now honey, I'm sure it was an honest mistake. I'm pretty sure they appreciate the work you do for them, all your customers do! I told her that it wasn't the card that matter but rather the bonus they had given her, next year she should just take the cash out and ignore the card. I told her how lucky she was that all of her customers give her bonuses, not all of them is cash some of them give her fruit baskets or booze or hair salon passes or nice Christmas cups with fancy chocolate drink preparation. She then agreed that it was the gesture that counted and not the name on the card, but between you and me I do a much better job at cleaning than my wife.


Okay, now I have to call the restaurant to make the reservations for Friday and I will probably take a small nap before writing my second post.

Hope you all have a wonderful day!
