The BRIGHT SPOT Awards: No. 048

Friday, February 4, 2022

Recipient:
Juan @ Tattered Cover Kids, Stanley Marketplace





I wanted to pick up something to read. There was a Tattered Cover Bookstore. Great!
Oh...Tattered Cover Kids. I walked back out. I love kid lit, but that's not what I was in the mood for. Except just as I was passing the front windows I saw a sign saying they had books for adults, too. Walked back in, hoping the staffer didn't think I was some kind of lunatic.
Perfect time to ask my favorite random question.

"Do you like working here?"
"Why do you ask?"
"It's just something I ask people generally."

Juan answered in the affirmative. 
He likes the store. He likes the hours. He really likes his boss.
And then the truth bomb:
"Attitude has a lot to do with it."

Damn straight.

P.S.: The book I bought is Amanda Gorman's Call Us What We Carry. Also inspirational.
