Title: Eat n Park customer sets-up GoFundMe so that 81-yr. old waitress can retire
Post by: TheFugitive on March 28, 2025, 11:23:59 AM
Here is a really nice story.  A customer at an Eat n Park location here in Pittsburgh noticed that her 81-year old waitress seemed to be struggling physically.  She chatted with her and the waitress said that she had to keep working because she simply could not afford to retire on her $900/month Social Security check.

Feeling bad for her this customer set-up a GoFundMe page to collect retirement funds for her.  As of this morning it has collected $250K!

Many of us have posted our experiences with obnoxious customers while working in retail.  But here's a story about a random customer that just has to make you smile.
