You just never know who you are dealing with.

A few weeks back, I had a gentleman who needed some repairs and appraisals. He also needed some gifts for special friends, and he bought a knife, a pen, and ordered a custom woodworking chisel. He asked me questions about the equipment I use and the belts I like. I asked him if he was a maker, and he said, "No I just know a bit about the equipment."

Today a big box arrived. It was a dozen each of top grade 2X72 belts in seven grits from 50-400 grit.

A few phone calls discovered that he is the East Coast distributor for VSM Abrasives. He said he just wanted to thank me for helping him out with the gifts.

You just never know.......
 
You can never get in trouble by being nice to everyone. The lady at the front desk may be the mother of the guy in the office. Be nice to everyone!
 
Thats always a nice thank you. I thought I was doing good for getting a loaf of fresh baked bread for making a hatchet sheath :-D
