So last Saturday I went and picked up my new 7 week old redbone hound. I got back late Saturday so Sunday morning I head to Tractor Supply to pick up a big bag of Eukanuba puppy food, a 7 in 1 vaccine, some worming meds, chew toys, new collar, etc......
I walk into the store and I believe that more than half of Baytown is in there shopping and they have one cashier working. I thought to myself " it's gonna take a long time doin this" but the pup needed her stuff and I'm already there so..... Suck it up and quit whining, right?
Anyway, I've gathered all my stuff and am waiting for an associate to unlock the vaccine cooler which they do. I head to the counter to get in line but get caught behind to elderly black gentlemen. I turn to get in the back of the line and they head on up oblivious to the line and they just stand there and watch person after person walk past them and and nobody even acknowledges them. I get up to where they are standing and by this time have at least 10 folks behind me. I stop and look at them and say "you do know the line goes way back there, don't you?" They look at me and I kind of give them a smile and say " I know Yall were here before me, so go ahead and jump in line right here ahead of me"
Yes, I heard all the griping and complaining behind me but really didn't give a tinkers **** what those folks thought.
We ease up in line and these two men get their stuff rung up and the lady gave them thier total, the old man said " Miss, you forgot a few things, I'm payin for whatever this young man is buyin"
That's right, he paid for my entire $118 dollar purchase and all he said was thank you and do something nice for somebody one day"
Yes Sir!!!! I certainly will
