I had such a wonderful experience today at the academy sports in Dallas area located on Parker and the tollway I am recovering from a stroke and I've just recently started going out and shopping by myself from the get-go the greeter at the door I think his name was Andrew Andrei... Give me a genuine warm greeting then I was helped by a first day girl named Brooke who couldn't have been a sweeter and more helpful help me pick out clothes and then a manager training named danique bring me out help me with my credit card and made sure that everything was all right and the manager strolled by a couple times I didn't get his name but you could see why his employees were so happy because he seemed like such a nice guy too you cannot overestimate how important it is to accompany to have employees like these because all the money you spend to get customers into the store can all be flushed down the toilet if the employees don't go the extra step these young people did... I know it's just a little trip to a sporting goods store but you don't see that kind of caring and effort and pride in their job like this very often
