A Wendy’s customer in Central Florida who was initially upset about a delay in her order returned to the restaurant with a gift for an employee after learning that the fast-food chain was short-staffed—proving that kindness still existed in the world.
Diaz explained that a customer became upset after the order she placed through the drive-thru took 15 minutes to get done.
“She was very upset about it and complained to the manager on duty,” Diaz wrote. “After the manager spoke to her and explained to her that there were only two employees working, she came back with a gift for my son.”
The gift included some cash and a handwritten card expressing her gratitude to him for continuing to work despite some really difficult times.
Reading these touching words, Daiz wanted to thank the kind stranger and share with netizens that “there’s still kindness [in] this world.”
Needless to say, the post tugged at some netizens’ heartstrings.
One social media user said: “That made me cry.” Another chimed in, adding: “God works his Miracles gives us all different jobs so we can see the light of day. Many blessings.”
After the media picked up her story, Diaz shared a follow-up, saying that so many individuals were touched by the gracious individual gift and kind words.
