I had a customer last year come in when I worked at Dollar Tree and she had forgotten her bank card because her husband still had it her order was only like $13 so I paid for it for her and I didn't expect anything back I just did a pay it forward. The following week she came in with a container of Christmas cookies that she had made for me. I about broke out into tears cuz nobody's ever done that for me before I've seen the manager at the store get stuff all the time from customers but never have I gotten anything from a customer I was just looking to do a nice thing for somebody I know how it is when you only have one bank card and your spouse has it and you're out doing things you have to do.

A client brought me some chocolates on my birthday, he heard us a week before talking about it. I felt so good :)

That's so sweet! I've never had anything like this happen to me with a client

Sometimes a flower vendor shows up at the restaurant and one time one of our customers actually bought me one :)

I've had some very generous tips from some of our regulars. Honestly, that's the best kind of gift I could ask for

My favorite customers are those who show me some basic human decency and don't act snappy with me for no reason lol

What's the gift tho 👀👀

A lady once bought me lunch for Christmas. I was kind of struggling and she didn't know about it, but it made my whole week.

A very generous tip after I provided them with excellent service! They told me that they really appreciated my helpful attitude and attention to detail during their visit, which made me feel incredibly grateful.

A guy once started talking to me while I was bartending. He said he just wanted to chat, and since the place was a bit empty that day, we had a great conversation.

A customer once gave me a ride to the hospital because I burned myself with the coffe machine. It was such an amazing act of kindness that I still remember it to this day; it really touched my heart!

Little kid who was having a birthday party and said that we made her feel like a queen because she got an ice cream sundae. It really made my day, and it was a reminder of why I love my job so much – to be able to make guests happy by providing the best quality service.

When I was younger and working at a 711 a customer bought me a lottery ticket 😅

A customer regularly tips us 100 bucks every time they come in

I have gotten an Christmas card with 10 dollars in it

I had a regular come in and she had made me home made cookies and brownies. And yes they were delicious

I'm at a smaller MM bank. My original goal was to start here and hustle through into a BB, but I wasn't expecting to really like the people (my team, my direct seniors).
