heres another saying from my world.throw the dog a bone.....mainly from my old antique buddies...in a nutshell it means giving something nice to a good customer once in a while...like a super cheap price on something ,or a real freebie, ,...its kind of a thank you. and also maybe to make up for something that maybe didnt turn out as well as hoped..or because they brought a new customer to you...or helped you out in other ways........
some guys i buy from will do this for me, knowing what i like they might save me something and give it to me or sell way under the money...its nice....
i try to do this a lot...its not organized or anything...and that wouldnt seem right ... but its out there...
the opposite is done to me a lot!!! my nice son will do a hard job for a customer, like load his truck, and they give him a tip, not the store who is definitely paying him to load the truck, ......or my cute daughter , when she worked here, she would often get help carrying something heavy , shes young and strong,,,,but they dont even see me lugging stuff around.... ..its so wrong!!!
