Joey Prusak, Eye Witness
Maybe what Joey Prusak witnessed while at work in Dairy
Queen wasn’t a major crime, but it sure violated the law of human decency. When
a visually impaired customer unknowingly dropped a $20 bill, the woman in line
behind him wordlessly picked it up and put it in her own purse!
Luckily for the man (and the future of the human race),
19-year-old Joey was on duty.
Joey first calmly asked the woman to give back the money,
but she actually had the audacity to create a scene of denial. The astonished
teen then informed the woman that she was “extremely disrespectful” and asked
her to leave. When she exited without returning the cash, Joey took the extra
beautiful step of giving the victim $20 from
his own pocket.
Even better is how surprised Joey’s manager was to later
receive a praising email from a witness to the scene. Joey’d never even thought
to tell his boss about the incident where he’d just done what “felt like the
right thing to do.”
Do you know a toast-worthy teen you’d like to see featured here at BWATE?
