Letter writing topic for February 16, 2010:
Today, commit a Deliberate Act of Kindness. Write a letter to someone's boss telling her or him what a great experience you had at her or his business because of the employee you're writing about. A waiter, a cashier, a receptionist, a teacher, whoever you come in contact with every day. Look hard if you have to, but find something great that they did today or yesterday or even the day before. Maybe the cashier always has a bright smile or the waiter always remembers what you want to drink. Now, do a little work and write a real letter. Find out the name of her or his boss. Then, do a little more research. If it's a large corporation, find out the name and address of the top boss, the CEO or president, and send a copy of the letter to her or him, too.
I know the anonymous, Random Acts of Kindness thing is popular. In fact, the Kind Over Matter blog is one of my favorites. But, this time, make it more deliberate than random. Sign your name, so the boss will know the compliment came from a real person, a customer.
Go ahead, make someone's day...with a letter.
