the other day I was running rampid because I had lost my debit card (again..*sigh*) and was in a rush to get to a specialist appointment. I went to the TD by my house on Tecumseh, just past Ouellette and they were closed (I think they've moved?) so panicked, I turned around and headed for the Ottawa location.

when I walked in I mentally cursed as there of course was line and I had to get this done because I knew I might need it for my appointment. while standing in line I saw the cutest exchange occur between a clerk and an adorable young boy, perhaps 4-5 yrs old. while she typed away and helped mom, she had an ongoing discussion with this little guy about a rock he'd found. standing high on his tiptoes, he hefted it up over his head so she could see his prize. they talked about where he'd found it, how heavy and how awesome it clearly was. this little guy was quite impressed with himself and a little chest puffing may have occurred. the clerk of course awarded him with a shiny sticker, which turned up the happy dial a few more levels lol..

the whole time, the clerk never missed a beat and efficiently moved on to the next person, the one after that and finally me!! when I got up, I apologitically said I was in a hurry and asked if I should just withdraw money or try for the new card? she said it would be a quick process and it was. I was so thankful I wanted to give her a shiny sticker lol.

so to TD bank staff thank you! I made my appointment, head still attached and you obviously made a little boys day.
