    I was at work and a man came in. I was working the ice cream section and that is where he happened to come. He ordered a chocolate sundae with extra nuts. I made it and was handing it to him when he asked me if I could warm it up in the microwave for about twenty seconds to soften it up for him. He looked like he was in his late thirties and healthy so I didn’t know why I was warming it up but didn’t think much about it, I get crazy requests all the time. I brought it out of the microwave and handed it to him while I was ringing it up on the register he stuck something in my back pocket. He then said, “Brother if I don’t see you again then merry Christmas. Be safe and wear your seat belt.” As he walked out I saw that for a left arm he had an artificial one. I pulled out what was in my back pocket and found a nice tip.
