Gushing With Kindness
(I’m a minor working the closing shift at a grocery store. Around 30 minutes before closing, a customer comes through my line with a box of Gushers candy. I’m tired, but I still try to be nice and make small talk.)
Me: “Wow, I haven’t had Gushers in a long time. I still love them, though!”
Customer: “Do you want some?”
Me: “A-are you sure?”
(He has already started to open the box.)
Customer: “Yeah, why not?”
Me: “Oh, no, it’s fine! You don’t have to.”
(He proceeds to put two bags of Gushers on the counter.)
Customer: “There’s one, and there’s two.”
Me: “Thank you so much!”
(He quickly left the store. Later, my friend from customer service came over and I gave one of the Gusher bags to her. That guy really made my night! If you’re reading this, thank you!)
