Ultimate Speech

Rae went well with her speech and suddenly remembered the comment made on food stamps. She then added, “the food stamps? Some health and welfare help an already mother of two feed three new mouths. There are not nearly enough women or people like her in this world.”

Turned Back

She thought it to be enough and started slamming the groceries on the belt, and then turned back around stating, “and even if those kids were all hers, and she had a dozen “baby daddies” and was on food stamps… no child in this country or any other deserves to be cold or hungry. I am sorry, but your behavior? Poorly done, very poorly done.”

Not Alone

As she went to check out her stuff, she discovered that the cashier was watching the incident from the very beginning and was overwhelmed. She gestured at herself, stating “single mother on WIC.” WIC stands for the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children.

Compassionate

The cashier continued: “What you said? Rocked!” Lindsay though did not like the way she encountered the couple but was not guilty at all. “Thanks,” Lindsay  replied and added, “I wasn’t sure I should have gone off like that…hug those babies of yours tight tonight.”

Chocolate!

Lindsay was fuming when she noticed the candies arranged in front of her at the cash register. She grabbed a bag of peanut butter M&Ms. She placed them on the counter and gave a neutral look to the cashier. The cashier, instead of yelling decided to stay mum and continued with her work.

Encouraged

After having her work completed, the cashier turned to Lindsay and checked out her stuff. The cashier could not take her eyes off Lindsay and finally said, “you have a nice night, ma’am, and do the same.” After this sentence Lindsay could not emit a single word from her mouth and with a smiling face she stepped out of Walmart.
