After 40 Days program, man finds deep meaning in Dairy Queen job

LarkNews.com: "SAN JOSE — Jerry Thomas, 21, used to feel stuck at a 'crummy fast food job.' But after completing the 40 Days of Purpose program at Union Methodist Church, he is now energized about his less-than-enviable employment.
'Spiritual significance is all around me in every menial task I do,' he says. 'My perspective has completely changed.'
The down-on-its-luck Dairy Queen where he works is tucked behind a dry cleaner, and gives Thomas plenty of time to ponder his purpose. Formerly insignificant events in his life now seem freighted with meaning, he says. He analyzes customers' every comment and gesture, seeking spiritual insight into why they came into Dairy Queen that day. Sometimes he offers comments like, 'Can I help you with anything else? Anything at all?'"
