McDonald’s Employee Helps Old, Disabled Man Eat His Food

Posted on April 18, 2018 by Sasha

Earlier this week, Destiny stopped at a McDonald’s in downtown Chicago after work. As she waited in line to place her order, an elderly man in a wheelchair stopped in front of the cashier to ask a question.

“It took him a few tries before either of us could understand he was saying ‘Help me please.’ Neither of us knew what help he needed, and the cashier suggested a few things before he figured out the gentleman needed help cutting and eating his meal,” Destiny wrote on Facebook.

Destiny didn’t think the cashier would help the old man. The store was crowded, and it was rush hour in one of the busiest cities in the country. Seconds later, however, Destiny couldn’t believe her eyes when the cashier shut down the register and walked out from behind the counter.

What happened next is taking the internet by storm, and luckily Destiny was able to snap a photo of the stunning act of kindness as it unfolded right there in the restaurant.

…But Destiny was blown away when the cashier shut down the register and walked out from behind the counter. He washed his hands, then proceeded to sit down and begin cutting the man’s meal and helping him eat. He had no idea another customer was taking a photo of the heartwarming scene as it unfolded.
