Morning Leaflet Girl

Approaching Monument on my walk to work, due the second week opening of 'Prego', leaflets were being handed by one girl for 'free cups of coffee'...

For a change, someone who was handing out leaflets at 8:10am had a lovely smile and the humour to go with it. The fact that people kept brushing past her and treating her like a mere lamp post didn't manage to knock her spirit. It's people like this that make the morning walk to work what it is. Leaflet work is mundane and most of the time I also ignore those that hand them out, mostly because they aren't giving them out with the passion that any job deserves. It would also be good that, if passers by register that these people feel like they are actually doing their job, when someone simply takes the item out of their hands; I think it might make a difference to their day as well as ours.
