POSTitivity Thread. Post a positive story....

[Jenesis]

With all the doom and gloom, I wanted to share a positive story and maybe encourage others to do the same. Or post happy new stories or whatever brings a smile to your face.

For me, it happened yesterday when I took my father grocery shopping. He uses the scooters at Walmart. We were shopping in the food section. I knew he needed something from the pharmacy and those things are slow, so I just left him shopping in the food section and ran over to pharmacy.

I was walking back to the food section and see my dad coming around the corner rack of clothes. Then I see someone with a cart pushing the back of it. I started to get mad until I walked up and my dad explained his scooter ran out of juice. The guy, because of social distancing, wanted to help but didn’t want to get close, so he used his cart and was pushing my dad back to the front of the store to get a new scooter. LOL

It was pretty sweet thing to do.

I was in the checkout line at No Frills. the elder lady in front of me had a load of groceries that she had checked out and realized she didnt have enough cash, she asked the cashier to put them aside while she went to the bank next door to see if she had any money left for this weeks groceries.
After she left the store I told the cashier that I'd pay for it and just set them aside for her .She was shocked and the people behind me were like are you serious?
I just shrugged and said I'm just paying a good deed forward
paid for hers..mine and walked out

My feel good story. I was in a Zellers, when they were a thing, at the line up and a really nice looking, slightly slutty Eastern European lady and I were kind of exchanging furtive glances. She seemed to be green lighting me for an approach. She was next in line behind me so when it was my turn to shuffle up to the cashier, an elderly lady, she said "do you have a seniors discount card dear?" I said "no" . She said. "well it could save you some money and it wouldn't take a minute to enroll" I said "no thanks" She said "really it wouldn't be any trouble and you should do it" and rambled on about how seniors like me could benefit and on and on. I didn't say " fuck off with the seniors card shit" although I was getting desperate for her to shut up. She cashed me out, with no discount and I looked behind me to see Ludmilla's reaction. She turned her head away and avoided any further eye contact. Thanks. Cunt cashier!

Certainly a better way to spend money than watching chair girl...

That was a good deed but, sorry about the but, but what if she went to the bank, didn't think she had enough money, and just left the groceries behind. This would mean the grocery store now makes double!

An ion walks into a bar and starts drinking, one shot after another.

Finally the bartender asks him if something's wrong. The ion says, "I lost one of my electrons". The bartender asks, "Are you sure?"

The ion says, "I'm positive."

I hope that qualifies.

Nah
as I was leaving i saw her coming back into the store..As I was driving by on my way out of the parking lot I saw her standing outside looking around...I think the cashier told her you just missed him

There would be a recipt printed off when he paid that was likely put into the bag, the cashier just would have given the bags to the lady when she returned and let her know a kind stranger took care of it.

Saw the CUTEST thing today while driving. I had to meet with a client(mainstream) and it had to be in-person. Don’t worry, we socially distanced and wore masks.

Anyway, while driving there, through the Kawartha’s, the baby ducks are out!!!!!

There was some road crew guys on one of the little bridges. I guess doing maintenance work.

So I see the one guy has the stop/slow sign out and it is turned to stop. So I stop, and then I look a head, we are just before the bridge where all the trucks are parked and I realize that they had stopped traffic so the mama and baby ducks could go across to the open water.

it was so cute and they are so little with their waggy little butts. Hahahahahaha.

Loved that the guys stopped traffic for them. Was awesome.

So I had walked to the grocery store to pick up a carton of coffee creamer and realized I forgot my wallet. As I apologized to the cashier, two stunning young women wearing college cut-off T-shirts stepped up and paid for my purchase. We talked a little - it turns out they just bought a house down the street from me and invited me in for a drink. We got a little tipsy and ended up with a fun romp in bed.

After the sex we sat in their jacuzzi where they revealed that they had won the lottery a few months back, bought the house and a yacht in the Caribbean. As soon as their friend came back from a modelling gig in Paris, the three were going island hopping on their yacht. They asked if I could join them but I told them I had to work to meet my car payments. They smiled at each other and told me that they would pay me the same as my work if I would join them in the Caribbean. ...

... wait a minute ...

... does this positive story have to be true ?????

When I got home after shopping I realized my purse was missing. I raced back to the store and someone had found and turned it in to the customer service desk. I wanted to give the finder a reward but the desk clerk couldn't identify the good samaritan.

This is my favourite. I was in NYC about 20 years ago. It was bloody freezing and really windy so I decided to take a bus, instead of walking, to the office. I was ready to pay cash for my bus fare. The driver said they don't accept cash, only tokens. (Why would a boy from Toronto have NYC bus tokens?) Not one but two ladies behind me offered to pay my fare. I offered the lady US$5 but she politely declined.

Went to get a desperately needed car wash today. The cashier upgrade me to the Super Works package for the price of the regular works package.

Don’t really know what the big difference is but it was nice to get the upgrade free of charge. LOL

A few years ago, I popped into one of those unmanned (unpersoned?) TTC subway collector's booth stations to escape the mother of all Summer rainstorms. I was standing next to one of those pre-Presta turnstiles. A young lady said "you can come in with me". Wasn't that really nice of her to make that offer?

My bike was fully loaded with groceries when it tipped over and all my stuff fell out. A couple immediately came to my aid and collected all the stuff. I said what can I offer you? The male said "no need". The female said "can I have an orange"?

After I tested the bike a bit, I came back to the couple and offered them a second orange. The female was so thankful. She said they wanted to buy some oranges but didn't have enough money.

I heard of "food insecurity" but neither I nor anyone in my circle have experienced it.

BTW 1: Both members of that couple are white, so despite what you hear from the lefties, there are good white people on this Earth.

BTW 2: I like these feel good threads. We need more.

I replaced a drinking faucet in my kitchen yesterday. Not something positive someone else did, but I feel proud.

Some may remember my shitpipe replacement thread and understand that these types of “home improvement and maintenance” are just totally out of my comfort zone and totally Intimidating to me. So for me to do it, and well I think because it works and there are no leaks, I think it is a positive thing. LOL.
