“It was like $3 and some change, and I never would have missed it,” he said.
It wasn’t the three bucks that Danny was so grateful for, as much as the heart of gold inside this young cashier.
“What a breath of fresh air,” said the regular, who is sure to be back more frequently now. “It meant that much to him, so it meant even that much more to me.”
But as the humble spirit he is, Marcus can’t quite understand what all of the hype and media attention is about.
“I’m called to serve these people well, not only because of my job but who I am,” he said. “This has pushed me to act in ways where I wouldn’t naturally.”
His small act of servanthood has since blossomed into an unexpected friendship between the two strangers who previously only exchanged a few words in the drive-thru window.
Marcus plans to meet up with Danny and his daughter to reconnect outside of Chick-fil-A sometime soon.
