I was at the airport the other day and got my shoes shined. I normally tip 20%, but I tipped this guy 100% as I could see myself in the mirror finish that he put on my shoes. They literally looked better than they did when they were brand new and I was beaming at the superb shine he put on them. I walked around the corner to the airport security line which was no more than twenty steps away. I was patiently standing in line when a big oaf of an obese woman who was obviously in a hurry rudely barged her way through the security line and stomped right on my foot in the process. Not only did it hurt when her hoof landed on my foot, but I looked down and my shiny shoe was marred, adding insult to injury . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/index.php/2018/12/shine-on-2/
