在日本東京霞關街附近,有一家名叫凱比特東急的四星級的飯店。演藝界的各路明星一到東京非“凱比特東急”不住。一向苛刻挑剔的明星們對此情有獨鐘的原因非常簡單,享受一下該店“定點”擦鞋匠源太郎的“五星級服務”。
源太郎擦鞋方法別具一格:不用鞋刷,而用木棉布繞在右手食指和中指上代替,鞋油也自行調配。那些早已失去光澤的舊皮鞋,經他匠心獨運的一番擦拭,無不煥然一新,光可鑒人。而且光澤持久,可保持一周以上。更絕的是,憑著高深的職業(yè)素養(yǎng),源太郎與人擦肩而過時便能知道對方穿何種鞋。從鞋的磨損部位和程度,他可以說出這個人的健康狀況和生活習慣。
爐火純青的技術,一絲不茍的精神和非同凡響的效果,為源太郎贏得了眾多顧客的青睞。他的老主顧不僅來自東京、京都、北海道,乃至香港、新加坡等地都大有人在。在他簡樸的工作室里,堆滿了發(fā)往各地的速寄紙箱。
也許我們不會想到,名聲顯赫的源太郎多年以前曾是化工廠的一名失業(yè)工人,靠打零工糊口。后來,一個偶然的機會,他從一個美國軍官那里學會了擦鞋。從此,只要聽說哪兒有好擦鞋匠,他就千方百計趕去請教,虛心學習。日子一天天過去,源太郎的名聲越來越響,最終成為“凱比特東急”飯店的一塊金字招牌 主站蜘蛛池模板: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
