Life / Cultural readjustment... returning to Poland from the West. [58]
When I walk in a store, I smile and say Hello! Nice weather! (or something to that effect), and I get a smile back almost every time :-)
Of course there are gonna be surly people out there as well, but some of them actually do crack half a smile too...
I don't wait for the other person to be nice to me first just because I happen to be the customer. If you want smiles, smile yourself. :-))))
"Hi, How are you" does not mean that the person is taking a personal interst in me.
