Random Acts of Kindness - The Blueberry Bagel


Today, I went out to pick up some parts at a machine shop for work and happened to see some shelving I’d like to have in my garage near a dumpster next to the machine shop I was leaving.  I got excited (as I do about things like this) and was about to load them into my car, but decided I should ask the nearby business if it was ok to take them.  After rummaging around the outside of their building, trying to find an entrance, and then trying to find a person to talk to, I happened upon their industrial-sized bakery!  I asked one of the bakers if I could have the shelves and they said no.  I was a bit disappointed naturally.  But then, the baker asked if I’d like to have a fresh donut or bagel!  A literally fresh from the oven, organic blueberry bagel!  So much better than some shelving!
Random acts of kindness like this always make my day fantastic.
