Waitress Shows Act Of Kindness Towards Old Man Looking for Leftover Foods Inside Mall
The heartbreaking photos of an old man looking for leftover foods inside a popular shopping mall go viral online.
Nowadays, we can rarely see people showing an act of kindness towards others due to the increase of wickedness and poverty. Many people were only thinking about themselves and their own wellness.
However, there are still some who can prove that faith in humanity is restored by showing kindness to other people. Kindness is one of the most wonderful things that we could ever show to others.
A Facebook user named Lia Del Castillo has shared the heartbreaking photos of an old guy looking for leftover food at Yellow Cab inside SM The Block. The middle-aged man poured what was left on the pitcher and drank from the used cup.
When the old man is about the leave, a kind waitress gave him a whole box of pizza. The latter ate the food and kept the leftover. Another group of men also gave money to the old man.
Here is the full post:
“Tonight while having dinner at Yellow Cab, inside SM The Block, I saw this old guy looking for leftover food on the table in front of us. Seeing nothing, he poured what was left of the pitcher and drank from the used cup. We just ordered food and only had 4 small chicken wings on the table.
As he was about to leave, this waitress saw him and stopped him to ask.
“Sir ano po yun?,” the old man replied but I wasn’t able to make of what he said. But the waitress replied, “Sandali lang po sir bibigyan ko po kayo ng pagkain,” and she asked him to sit down.
Then she went out to give him a plate, utensils and a glass of softdrink. Curious, I waited for what would happen next.
To my surprise, the waitress handed him a whole box of pizza. To his delight, the old man almost wanted to cry. He ate and kept the leftover in his bag and waited for the waitress to pass by him. When she did, the old man said Salamat then left.
Another group of men who saw this also handed him money, including my husband.
I don’t know, I’ve done stories like these when I was a reporter and it never gets old. The kindness of people, the generosity and selflessness of others still amazes me. I told my husband, the waitress could have shooed the old guy away but she didn’t. She didn’t give him a set meal (which was what I expected), and instead gave him her free box of pizza. One whole box.
She treated him like a regular, paying customer, even calling him “Sir.”
That to me is amazing. And really commendable.
What a way to start the year. ❤”
