Customer who needs to drop by a lot more often
Me: "Okay, that'll be $2.10."
Lady: *gives me three dollars* "You still writing?"
Me: "Yep!" *hands back change*
Lady: "That's great." *takes out a ten-dollar bill* "Here-- keep five for yourself and use the rest to buy for whoever's behind me."
Me: ". . . will do. Thanks!"
And since orders there tend to be pretty small, her five dollars fully paid for three other very happy customers.
Faith in humanity = restored.
