I decide to run to the store and get some things for work tomorrow. While still in my work clothes mind you! While I\u2019m at the store there is a family there with what looked like a 15-year-old and a 6-year-old little boy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As I walk behind them the little boy starts making funny faces at me. So, me being the father, I am making some <a><\/a>faces back! The little boy starts laughing and as his parents look back at me in my dirty work clothes the proceed to rush out of the aisle. I don\u2019t think anything of it until I hear them the next aisle over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can hear them basically scalding their oldest child telling them that if they don\u2019t go to college, they will look like me. Never have any money and so on and so forth. Long story short, coincidentally we are both checking out at the same time. The kids are asking for candy bars and their parents are pretty much yelling at them that they don\u2019t have enough money to buy them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, what do I do? I proceed to buy each kid two of the candy bars they were asking for and their parents look at me in disbelief and tell me I didn\u2019t have to do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I responded with, \u2018I know I didn\u2019t have to do that, but I had extra money and wanted to share it with someone today!\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What I\u2019m trying to say is just because someone is in dirty clothes, looks like ass, and probably smells like it too. Doesn\u2019t mean they don\u2019t make good money and have a good heart!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t judge a book by its cover!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Credit: Brandon Whitesell<\/p>\n<div class=\"684f6003e199ca137b09540a661b4c2d\" data-index=\"2\" style=\"float: none; margin:0px 0 0px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<!-- Composite Start -->\r\n<div id=\"M940464ScriptRootC1583286\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script src=\"https:\/\/jsc.adskeeper.com\/k\/o\/kohajone.press.1583286.js\" async>\r\n<\/script>\r\n<!-- Composite End -->\r\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cLiterally just had the craziest thing happen to me at Walmart.
