7:30 am at Zabeel House by Jumeirah, The Greens, I spotted a gentleman walking towards guests and greeting them with a beautiful smile. I was walking to the gym and I saw him passing by, offering a smile to almost everyone with a great good morning and a greeting for a happy day.
He was happy, passionate about his job, well groomed, with a name tag and an employee ID of which he seemed proud, focused on sharing the joy in his heart and careless about anything else.

He came towards me and gave me a high five and said “smile sir, God gave us a new day to enjoy.” I was speechless for a minute, full of mixed emotions and I thought how it only takes a minute for us to forget the great things God has given us and focus on silly things instead. I asked for a photo with him and he smiled and said, “I don’t know why, but I’m famous so I need to pose.”

Mohammad is a proud employee with down syndrome with tons of love to share with the hotel guests. A tiny job description that does a lot to everyone.

All my respect to Zabeel House and the Jumeirah Group for such an amazing team that not only delivers an outstanding service, but also shares true moments of love.
