Statewide mandatory shut-downs, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, put millions of Americans' lives on hold. As you adjusted from going out to dinner or running errands at a mall to curbside pickup or socially-distanced delivery, customer service became more important than ever. Some retailers and service providers just seem to have the right touch. They fill orders accurately and promptly — and make you feel connected and cared for, as well. What could be more welcome during a time of uncertainty?
