On Saturday, Jan. 2, a Whistler Blackcomb employee named Chris made my morning.
I was in the Excalibur line-up at 8 a.m., getting rained on and already pretty soaked. As I approached Chris, he initiated pleasantries then asked, “Where are your sticks?”
I explained using as few expletives as possible that in my haste to beat traffic to the upper lots and drop my son at ski school, I had forgotten my poles at home.
Immediately, he flagged a colleague to take his spot, ran into Affinity and came out with a pair of poles for me.
He didn’t even ask my name, just said, “Have a great day”!
This was sweet way to start the New Year.
Cheers, Chris, hope some good karma comes your way soon.
