Last night we pulled a switcheroo on our waitress (we're part of her Friday night "regulars" for the past 10 years). Since we knew a week ago, that she'd be on vacation this week, some of the other regulars and us, asked her if we could take her out out to dinner as our guests (at another restaurant)! We all had a blast, and it was great to see her just relax and have dinner, without running around servicing multiple tables for a change!
She told us that none of her customers had ever offered to take her out before. Made me pause, to think that life is too short and if there are people you like, you might want to let them know sooner, as opposed to later.
