Because when she gives her best back to you , it makes you shine on the inside and will encourage you to come back and visit her again. For the people who smoke I agree you have the right to kill yourself if you want. But please understand , you stink around people who don't smoke and we do not want to see your garbage on the ground. To all ambassadors. Anytime you work for the public , you are always going to be criticized by some. Its the way people are today. I for one really enjoy golf here and I thank anyone that makes that happen.
As the OP, your post is sincerely appreciated. I learned long ago that you cannot please everyone. When golfers say, “Thanks for what you do”, my day is made so much better. When I see a golfer filling a divot, I always thank him or her for being considerate. I smile at and wave to everyone I can. Maybe that smile will make their day a little better as well. Although I can fight my own battles, we are prohibited from becoming involved if things heat up. Our authority goes only so far. I am happy to say that I had to call my manager only once in the past year.
