When 19-year-old Dairy Queen manager, Joey Prusak was serving a blind customer, he noticed the man drop a $20 bill.
The woman behind the blind man grabbed the $20 bill and put it in her purse.
Prusak then instructed the woman to return the money. After she said no, the teenager made her leave. “I told her, ‘Ma’am, you can either return the $20 bill or you can leave the store, because I’m not going to serve someone as disrespectful as you.'"
The woman left. But then, Prusak returned to the blind man and gave him $20 of his money.
Prusak notes, "I was just doing what I thought was right. I did it without even really thinking about it."
