“How much is an ice cream sundae?” the little boy asked.
“Fifty cents,” replied the waitress.
The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and studied the coins he had. “Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?” he inquired.
By now, more people were waiting for a table and the waitress was growing very impatient. “Thirty-five cents,” she brusquely replied.
The little boy again counted his coins. “I’ll have the plain ice cream,” he said.
The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and walked away. The boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and left. When the waitress came back, she began to cry. As she wiped down the table, there placed neatly beside the empty dish were two nickels and five pennies. You see, he couldn’t have the sundae because he had to have enough money to leave her a tip.

Good story! We are the same people, why some people when they enter to some place, the owner seem unwelcome to them like other people that they are in this place as well. I think that don't just look the people only the cover of body. Sometime it can make you feel regret about what you done to them.
We can not read someone by cover. When we do a business in one service, we should think that all clients or customers are boss or king that we must save good service for them. If we do not like this, we will lose by our hands. So we should positive for most cases in our job.
