WORDS OF WISDOM
During our 20 Club meeting in Scottsdale, we went to a restaurant, Local Bistro, excellent by the way.  But as I was sitting in a position to see the wall that the staff sees every time they walk out of the kitchen, and in view from some dining tables, I was in awe of what I saw.  Their mission statement is printed in white lettering on a black painted wall. We wish to share this with you as it resonates with us and the philosophy of ABD, it is stated so well.

"A customer is the most important visitor on our premises.
He is not dependent on us.  We are dependent on him.
He is not an interruption of our work.  He is the purpose of it.
He is not an outsider of our business. He is a part of it.
We are not doing him a favor by serving him.
He is doing us a favor by giving us the opportunity to do so."

I asked to see the Manager or Owner, who came to our table with concerns of my needs.  I complimented him on the Statement, and asked his permission to photograph it with my camera as I wished to share with my staff and clients, of course giving him and his restaurant credit. (I apologize my camera photo doesn't read it well.) He was honored and said yes, and then informed me he wished he could take full credit, it is by Ghandi.
