Still hoping for progress

[daybyday]

I got a test at work today. I was working at a customers house and she was telling me that she had had a bad decade. I had fixed her problem and she asked "oh gosh. What is my bill going to be?"
I told her no charge as she pays for inside mntc.. She got so happy and said "oh, thank you. I wanna give you a hug". I was walking out the door. The old DBD would have just said "well, you have a good day", and got in my truck and left. Instead, I thought about how she might be going through hard times and could really empathize. I turn around and gave her a big hug. She thanked me and it made me feel good.

My intention in posting this is not to get a pat on the back. It's just to show that I CAN be a better person and I have made forward progress on me.
