first of all, f*** burger king corporate for making this so hard to write this. there is nowhere on the bk site to contact anyone, call anyone, write anybody....and that stupid bkexperience thing is very stupid. the company goons are morons!!
i almost didnt want to write this after being subjected to that F***king corporate idiot crap....but the event was so moving that i somehow felt compelled. and i know how those cubicle bozos think: if its not online they dont want to hear or know about it.
yesterday, i bought some food at the washington street restaurant. everything was fine per normal, but something unusual happened. two guys in front of me had trouble paying for their food. two working class guys that were obviously hungry and thirsty. one guy tried to pay with his card but was a couple dollars short. manager Nick came and tried to sort the card but couldnt get the total paid. i offered to pay for the balance but Nick gave them their food anyway with an agreement that they return and pay it back. they agreed and were very moved by the gesture. i was too. one of the guys cried in the lobby.....and i almost did myself. i am almost crying now actually.
but anyway, i just could not believe the compassion, empathy, and good will expressed by that manager and i regret that i was the only one to witness it. wow! what a credit to that restaurant and to the citizens of kokomo.
i hope anybody reading this will visit that particular burger king as often as they can. i know i will. read more
