A few years ago, I was at a restaurant with my project team, eating a Christmas dinner. My view of the other diners was via a 1 in from of me from where I was sitting. It was a Wednesday night about 3 weeks before Christmas so there were only about 6 other tables 2.
About 10 minutes before we left, I happened to look in the mirror, seeing two girls come in. They sat near me. They started to 3 the menu and I could hear what they said. They 4. "It's so expensive!"
I usually 5 the table that's eating their dinners so I can get their check from the restaurant. As we left, I told the manager I wanted to 6 the two girls. He figured that the high 7 was $100 including taxes, so I gave him $140 and told him to give the waiter whatever was left as a Christmas 8 . Touched by my act, the manager said he would 9 anything over $100 and give the waiter $40. We agreed that he would tell the two girls after we 10 that someone had paid for their meal. I wanted them to 11 whatever they wanted without considering the cost.
The next day I went to the restaurant again to eat dinner with my friends, the manager 12 me. He walked to me. From him, I knew 13 about the thing after we left. The two girls felt 14 and were moved to tears. They appreciated the kindness and said they would pass the kindness on to others in need.
I do this several times a year but I 15 like the two girls' reaction, which makes think it valuable to do such things!
