A Long WordCamp Weekend

Posted by Ronald Huereca

This week I was able to attend my first blogging conference called WordCamp Dallas in Frisco, TX.

I learned quite a bit, but at the end I was just wore out. I spent my last night in Dallas at a new friend’s place, and he caught me as I fell asleep uploading pictures.

The Number 8th Ronald?

Posted by Ronald Huereca

I was randomly searching Google Webmaster Tools and noticed that one of the number one keywords for people entering this site was “Ronald”.

I looked into it, opened up Google, and simply typed in “ronald“. And this website shows up in the 8th result. How the heck did that happen?

So much for trying to keep my name out of the search engines :)
I show up just behind Ronald McDonald and Ronald Reagan. For some reason Google thinks I’m important.

To Whom it May Concern

Posted by Ronald Huereca

“I hereby resign my…”

Those are the words I read as I bought a late-night dinner from the grocery store.

The cashier was writing a letter as he was checking out my groceries and I caught a brief glimpse.

“How are you today sir?” the Cashier asked.

“I’m fine. Thanks.” I said as I swiped my credit card to pay.

The Cashier reached for my small basket I used to collect my groceries.

“That’s not necessary. I can put it up.” I said.

“No problem sir. Could you please sign here?” the Cashier said as he handed me my receipt.

“Thank you sir, have a good night.” the Cashier said.

In the background I could see his boss giving the Cashier a rude glance. It makes me wonder if his boss knew the Cashier was quitting.

I have to hand it to the Cashier. I’m not aware of many people who can still give great customer service while in the middle of writing a resignation letter.

Cashier, I commend you. You could have just walked out on the job. You could have said, “Boss, to hell with you!” But you didn’t.

You acted like a man, wrote a letter, and still treated the customers as human.

To whom it may concern? Hopefully all of us.
