There Are Good People.

Goldfinch60



Yes there are good people around.

Standing at the checkout

Loading my shopping

Onto the conveyor,

A lady came behind me,

One of the staff.

She only had a couple of things

So I let her go before me.

She thanked me,

Paid for her goods,

Then walked off.

I then had my shopping

Priced and packed.

The cashier told me the price

But then said,

It is lower than that,

As the lady who I had let through

Had set up her staff discount

For me to receive,

So my bill was less.

Yes there are good people around.

    Good write Gold.
    Yes, and in a church (which has its greedy side too though) a church member paid for someone else's goods as well as for their own.

      indeed! but then there are also
      Unique people, like You: Andy
      who 'bring out'
      the goodness in others...
      a privilege to know you, my friend!
