a story about great service

Most of the time when we talk about customer service, we are complaining about poor service we've received.  I know I'm guilty of that.

But today I have a good customer service story for you.

A friend and I were shopping at Woolworths Burwood, doing an epic shop as we were catering for a large weekend away gathering.  We managed to load up 2.5 trolleys.  Epic.  One of the staff members saw us wrangling the trolleys and helped us to get to a register.  She then helped the guy to scan and pack all of the items.  Then she got not 1, but 3 guys to help us take the stuff up to the car and unload it.  Awesome!  We were blown away.

What great service! [ps - I have written to Woolworths to commend her for her efforts]

She really went above and beyond the call of duty.

However, even more amazing is the service of Jesus.  Even though He is the ruler of the world, He came not to be served but to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many (Mark 10:45).  Even more wow-factor.
