I've recently learned that Waffle House is open on Christmas Day. Knowing that no one deserves to work on this day, I went inside to make a difference in one of the workers' Christmas. I walked into the store and saw a lady that worked there in front of the counter where you pay. I asked her if she was going to be working on Christmas, and she said yes. I told her, "Well then, here's a gift." I handed her a green envelope with a card and the $25 inside. I said "Merry Christmas," and was on my way out of the store. The lady immediately called me back over to her. She gave me a big hug and thanked me. She told me to come to Waffle House to eat on Christmas. I listened to her as she told everyone else in the store about her great gift as I walked out the door. I'm not sure what she will do with the money. All I do know is that her Christmas will be changed by this gift. I am happy that I was given the opportunity to give it to her.
