LIFE IS A PURE FLAME, AND WE LIVE BY AN INVISIBLE SUN WITHIN US by Sir Thomas Brown...

Dunsmuir Shell is a large, profitable Shell station in Victoria, British Columbia..Mr. Dunsmuir has a unique approach which has enabled him to build a successful business. when customers pull into his station, four well-trained, courteous, enthusiastic, motivated young people converge on the car. one opens the door and invites the driver to step out. one reacges inside, unlatches the hood and checks the oil. the first one proceeds to vacuum the car thoroughly. the third one stars pumping the gasoline and immediately grabs the materials to wast not only the windshield, but all the windows. the fourth checks to make certain there is the proper amount of air in all the tires. it's a friendly place to do business.

the turnover is personnel at Dunsmuir Shell is extremely high - which is expensive - because he trains and motivates his people well. actually, he encourages the turnover because he tells each one of the young people that the next person who stops in to buy gasoline might be their next employer, so they should give especially good service.

as a result, when people need a motivated, enthusiastic, committed young person for their business, they stop by Dunsmuir Shell to buy gasoline and make an effort to recruit that ypoung person. frequently, of course, they do exactly that. Dunsmuir, however, has a waiting list of people who want a job. they start with him and move elsewhere.

in the meantime, Dunsmuir has had an extremely employee and the young person has learned some valuable lessons about getting ahead in life. interestingly enough, when those young people get better jobs, guess where they buy their gasoline? That's building something of value on your lot in life. take that approach to life and I'LL SEE YOU AT THE TOP..
