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.
Thanks Orchi, yes there are many good people around.

Unique people, like You: Andy
