Easter giving

How great is this for an example of the benefits of living in a small country town? On Good Friday, as I drove past the Yarragon Post Office (LPO) and I noticed the two proprietors, who were supposed to be on a well earned break, walking in and out of the post office with bundles in their arms.

I called out and said "I thought you were on holiday". The response was: "Wait - there's a parcel for you". Some parcels had obviously arrived late on the Thursday, past closing time.

These two wonderful people were concerned that some parcels may have been Easter gifts, and they were preparing to drive around and deliver them, just to make sure no one missed out on Easter presents.

How's that for community spirit? Hopefully some of it might rub off on the larger businesses in Warragul, where, only too often, the term ‘customer service’ has little or no meaning.
