I believe things happen for a reason. I stopped for lunch at Joe's Crab Shack, took a seat at the bar for lunch and water. The bartender started talking to me, welcomed me to the restaurant and then said "I am deaf but I read lips". I said "Excuse me?" He said it again and smiled.
Wow. I don't think I need to say anything else.
I will add, regardless of his being deaf, he ranks right up there with the best customer service I have had and could expect from anyone in the restaurant or any business.
My personal issues and worries of today just became very very small. I am so grateful for pulling in to this restaurant with no planning, I was just hungry and this was the first place I saw where I knew I could get a nice lunch.
Little did I know.......dude will get a really nice tip from me!
And to think that I did not think or know that I had a higher power before I started this journey of getting and staying sober....
