I’m impatient.
That’s a huge McUnderstatement.
Would you like a McClassic Example?
So very crowded was the line inside of McDonald’s that I went back outside, got in my car and got in the drive-thru line.
It was also a dramatic illustration of just how competitive I am, even with myself. My personal-no-one-even-noticed-Game was to get in my car, go through the drive-thru, get my order, park my car and get back into McDonald’s and eat my sausage egg McMuffin without the last person in line inside the store getting their order.
Little did I know that there was another game about to take place. . .
One with a couple of Winners.
I first heard her voice when I came up to the speaker to place my order.
Before she ever asked me for my order, she asked me this:
“Good morning. Are you having a good day?”
I told her I was having an awesome day and asked her how she was doing?
She told me, “Most Excellent.”
“Now what can I get for you to make the day better,” she asked?
I placed my order and was a little intrigued to find who this Order-Taking Wizard was.
She was young, and had a smile on her face that filled the window.
She told me what I owed her and as I handed her the money, I told her I owed her much more than that.
“How is it that you are TAKING orders but GIVING so much more than what you could put in a bag?”
She laughed and said, “I’ve never heard it put THAT way before.”
I thanked her for making my morning and she thanked me for coming through her line and told me it was good to see me.
I gave her my standard reply to that comment: “IT’S BETTER TO BE SEEN THAN VIEWED”
She laughed and that when I said, “Hey, thanks for bringing it. . .you McBROGHT IT!”
She yelled as I drifted away, “Thanks, you McBrought it, too!”
I hurried and parked my car and went back into McDonald’s to read the papered news and eat my Sausage Egg McMuffin.
Oh yeah, I was smiling big because I had beaten the people who were still in line waiting for their orders.
I WON!
…and then, and then I realized, I ready had W O N. . . .
When was the last time Some One McBrought if for you?
When was the last time you McBrought if for Some One Else?
Let the Game begin. . .
McBring It!
