In a good way!
Busy with work and didn't feel like cooking. Ordered a few sandwiches from a joint this evening. Paid with Google Pay and I neglected to leave a tip. Order was placed before I could add one. I immediately called the store and said Oops. Told them to let the driver know I'd throw some cash at them when they arrived and I was sorry. Lady giggled and said that's the first time she's heard that one. Said no problem and thanked me again.
10-15 later, same lady on the phone pulled in the drive. I always meet them at their car. One to be polite and two for security reasons. Gave her a 10 and she teared up. Said she's had a rough day and dealt with some crappy stuff between home and work, was appreciative of some kindness. Got a smile and parted ways. Opened the bag and found two cookies I didn't order. My wife and son gave the next smiles.
Feel good moment of the day for me. Crappy day for me with work, wrong contacts I drove across town for and caught a narly rock on the way home.
Harmonious switch off.
