We hope to hear from you, but more important, so do Californians and others across the country.I went to Trader Joe’s last night. The store was empty of all food, obviously, but that is not the topic of this story.
As I enter, an employee at the entrance greets me and says: “Hi! Would you like some hand sanitizer?”Lovely Dude, sprays my hands from a safe distance and says: “Awesome! There you go!”Lovely Dude: “We sold out a long time ago, but we have the ones at the entrance for people to use.”Me: “For offering them hand sanitizer? What is wrong with people?”Me: “It’s fine. I’ll take theirs. You can shower me with it if you want.”I pay.
Lovely Dude stops me with this: “Hey, so kindness goes a really long way and you made me smile, so can I give you these flowers?”Dude: “Yeah, you made a few of us smile actually.” AdvertisementExpressions calm down. Love returns. We all laugh again and I walk out, clutching wildflowers.Stay safe, go out only for essentials, but smile at people because apparently 1) No one is and 2) That’s how you get flowers.
