I rented a movie at Blockbuster on my way home from work at 8pm. The gentleman at the movie store was so nice to help me find the movie I was looking for and to give a little further information on it. I thought it would be nice to tip him for his extra-helpful service.

"Do you accept tips?" I asked when he was done ringing me up.

"Unfortunately, I can't." He said with a very disappointed look on his face. "Somehow I always seem to land the jobs that don't get tips." He added.

"Ok, I'm sorry. I hope you have a great evening." I said as I walked out.

So, then I was leaving and thought- what can I do now? Right then I saw a mailbox outside (the kind that have a bunch of cubby holes) in the parking lot. Ding ding! A bell went off in my head.

I slipped a dollar bill in the "outgoing mail" box and drove away.

Peace :)
