Hank,
>>A greeter with welcome in his heart and a genuine smile on his face for 8 hours a day is doing something most software developers, moi included, would be unable to replicate. Anyone who can do that has my admiration.
Agreed. And it doesn't hurt to reflect that "there but for the grace of God go I". Especially in today's economic climate.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
