A senior manager after seen me with a grin on my face after every break inquired what was making me be in such a good mood. Was the training funny? Now keep in mind he is a native Brooklyn guy.
Always polite to me but doesn't really know me. After two weeks of a smiling face he is worried I'm cracking jokes with the trainers and playing my usual Jedi mind tricks (that's probably how I got the job).
I explained i typically smile for no reason. In fact in the absence of any reason not to, I will just smile, in fact grin. I especially have a happy expression just as I see someone I like.
Before he new it, he was grinning too. When I was leaving, a secretary commented to me she would be missing my smiling face and my funny but inoffensive jokes.
I work on the road and from account to account (I am in medical sales). I love what I do. I guess after doing this for years, a big smile and a bigger grin are the one thing that folks remember.
No matter how bad the world seems. No matter how tough tomorrow may end up being. Keep smiling. Being in America, we have a lot to smile about. Maybe when we roll up our sleeves to fix what corrupt politicians, greedy bankers, opportunistic oil companies CEOs, foul insurance company executives and crooked ____________ (fill in the blank) have done to us and our country, we can do even more with a big smile.
