12 Stories That Prove Kindness Can Turn Shadows Into Light

I was fifteen. I was alone during my first shift at my first job (small photo studio)

a woman came in and asked for passport photos in black and white.

I explained to her that we no longer did bw passport photos and only color,

which were up to specs with government regulations. After I took them,

and she came back, she proceeded to yell at me for them not being in black and white,

even though she had agreed to color before I took them This is in front of a line of,

customers behind her who’d witnessed the whole thing.

Because it was still a perfectly good product and I had just started the job,

I wasn’t allowed to just refund her and be done with it.

After fifteen minutes of her refusing to stop yelling at me, I started to cry.

An older gentleman in the line walked up to her, handed her a refund from his own pocket,

and told her to get out and stop mocking a fifteen-year-old for doing her job.
