The Rachel Joy Scott Story
True story: Two young ladies who were already friends when they were both hired to work at a particular store. They were given the same basic responsibilities, had the same boss, same co-workers, and the same customers. But then one of them began to find fault with this person and that circumstance and gradually started complaining to everyone about her job. It wasn’t long before she just . . . quit!
That’s half the story. The other girl continued to enjoy and appreciate her job. When there were problems, she faced them and solved them quickly. She made close friends with co-workers and had customers who asked for her when they came into the store. She took advantage of opportunities to gain new skills, developing both her personality and her talents.
Looking for the good in any circumstance and using a little creativity when there is a problem can make a world of difference!
