Something good happened to me today I was making an order at KFC when I blocked in the middle of my order. The employee noticed and started laughing. His manager saw that and took me aside. She told me she had a stutter when she was young and that she got bullied for it. The manager apologized for the rudeness of her employee and gave me my meal for free. :)
