Apology From Angry Customer To Starbucks Worker Takes Over Internet
- 7 years ago
A woman who’d recently been rude to a Starbucks employee gave him a handwritten letter of apology and a $50 bill.
Most have had one of those days when patience levels are running low.
One woman recently in that situation later took a moment to apologize to a Starbucks worker on the receiving end of curtness.
The letter she wrote, which was accompanied by a $50 bill, quickly made its way to Reddit and then around the Internet, bolstering people’s opinion of humankind along the way, notes Mashable.
The note read, in part, “Yesterday at your drive thru we had a less then cheerful encounter. At no fault of yours, you were out of carriers & said you could not take my empty cup (trash). I was less then understanding & my manner was curt. I need to apologize. The thought of leaving a trail of unkindness like that is so not the path I want to reflect.”
She also wrote, “You taught this ole lady something yesterday about, Kindness, Compassion and staying humble. I thank you!”
The employee who received the kind words and the cash told Metro, “People seldomly apologize for rudeness, and she went above and beyond to apologize to me. She obviously felt bad and is a genuinely good person.”
