Well If He Doesn’t Want Them . . . NYC Waiter Gets Chuck E. Cheese Tokens as a Tip

You’re 5 years old and you’ve only two Chuck E. Cheese tokens to your name. Do you hoard them, these, your most precious possessions in the entire world? Or do you give them away to someone less fortunate than you?

If you chose the latter, I tip my hat to you, good sir, for you were probably a much gentler-baby than I. I would have just shoved them into my pockets and cried when my mom said she lost them in the wash.

But chugging along that same train of generosity as you, apparently, and that old widow lady from the bible, a toddler eating at an Applebee’s in NYC a couple days ago decided to give away some Chuck E. Cheese tickets and tokens as a tip to his parents’ waiter after their meal. Clearly touched, the waiter posted a photo of the donation to Reddit and later commented that, “He smiled and gave em to me, and I couldn’t help but smile back . . . those meant a lot to him, and he gave them to me. =)”

Of course, it probably helped the guy’s gratitude that the kid’s parents had already paid their actual tip with actual legal tender, but hey, it’s the thought that counts.
