I've been out of town for a few days so didn't post any updates... I'm back now and have an update on Tan Loafer Louie! Before we left town, I was out running errands and decided to stop and get coffee at my coffee shop. Going in on my day off is hilarious but that's an entirely different story.
As I rounded the corner I bumped in to TLL. True, I see him every day that I work, but I haven't run into him out on the street before (I live around the corner from the shop).
I asked him if he was on his way to work. He told me it was his day off.
"But I can't wait to go in tomorrow because I'll get my bonuses!"
"Oh, I didn't know you get bonuses there," I replied.
"Yep, I get a kick-back from any tour I book at the desk." (TLL is a concierge at a really nice hotel here in town.)
He told me all about the bonuses, the tips, the hours and a few stories from his day-to-day. I realize he was excited so was only telling the positive side, after all, it is customer service. But it sounded great! I love my city and can see myself giving advice about what to do, where to go, and fun things to see and do. So, now this barista is thinking about looking into being concierge for a living. I'm about to google it to see what I can find...
Off to unpack.
