Doing Business with Heart in Arizona
Dad realized he had left his hiking boots at The Pointe South Resort in Phoenix, a stop on the way to The Grand Canyon. Based on prior experience, he feared the boots were gone forever.
He called Pointe South and reached Laurie who said, “Mr. Bolick, in room 1216 – yes I have 1pair of hiking boots, 1 pair of dress shoes, 1pair of khakis and 1 very pretty blue checked shirt.”
He couldn’t believe his ears. The list was so long! And – she responded so quickly without even putting him on hold. Dad told her he would pick everything up when he returned to Phoenix for the flight back to North Carolina.
Laurie surprised him again by offering to send the clothes to his next destination. At no charge. True to her promise – Dad had a package waiting for him when he checked in to his hotel the next day.
Laurie did business with heart.

Doing Business with Heart in Georgia
At the Marriott in Atlanta, I couldn’t help but overhear a customer yelling at Antwon who worked as a bellman there. And couldn’t help but notice that Antwon stayed calm through all the ranting and raving.
When asked how he managed to do that, Antwon laughed and said, “I get lots of practice.”
He grew more serious as he said, “I try to rise above it. I figure if I be nice to them, then maybe it will make their day better. And maybe later they will think about it and be nicer to the next guy.”
Thank you, Antwon for doing business with heart.
