Pike Place Market flower merchants work that game 7 days a week.
They work their asses off though. Those two flower shops are owned and run by two different families. They wake up at like 3:30 am to get their business day started. They’re the first generation children of political refugees who fled Laos through Thailand after the Vietnam War
Sure it’s a sweet comment, but the premise is inaccurate and motivations questionable. They weren’t “simply taking a walk”, they were purchasing flowers. And the person that gave the compliment has a financial conflict of interest. Their opinion on the matter shouldn’t just be accepted at face value.

Edit: This is not meant to be taken seriously. Apologies y’all! I deserve all the criticism.
…so? Is this just whooshing me? That sounds like an extremely cynical, transactional take; is someone complementing you at work always just a 3D game theory value proposition to get help on next quarter’s EPS report? This is just a lighthearted wholesomeness community, I really don’t think they were claiming angelic altruistic intent anywhere?
