A Tennessee dad named Jesse Young recently took to Facebook to share a sweet moment between a CiCi's Pizza manager and a fellow employee.
Jesse and his son Jasper had stopped by the Murfreesboro, Tennessee, location of the pizza chain for a couple of slices. While they were there, they witnessed a small-but-beautiful act of kindness in action.
Like the kind Long John Silver's employee who fed a man in need, this young CiCi's Pizza manager clearly has a heart of gold.
Jesse and Jasper were enjoying their meal when they noticed the manager, Brandon, approaching another employee on lunch break and helping to clean up her face.
The young woman on break, Diana, has disabilities that may impact her coordination. Over the course of her meal, she ended up getting a bit messy.
Fortunately, she has a manager with her best interests at heart. Brandon stepped in to help her out!

So, my son Jasper and I were on our way home from Vanderbilt and he wanted CiCi’s pizza.
I found one in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and we stopped to eat.
We were the first customers of the day.
Once inside, I noticed an employee sitting alone at a table having lunch.
I later learned that her name is Diana and she appeared to have some mental and/or physical challenges.
While we continued to eat our lunch, I noticed that the young manager, Brandon, came by to clean her table and take her plate away.
It was then that I saw something that helped restore my faith in humanity.
The manager, Brandon, came back to Diana's table with a napkin in hand and gently wiped her face while she just smiled at him.
As a parent of a special needs child, I was almost moved to tears by this simple gesture.
Just knowing that there are people like this in the world gives me hope.
He didn't know that I was watching but, I assure you that I made him aware of what I saw and how much it blessed me.
His response was, "I just try to treat people the way my grandparents taught me to."
I think about how often we are quick to share our bad customer service experiences on Facebook.
I think that we should be just as quick to share these experiences as well.
So, if you're ever in Murfreesboro, Tennessee… stop in and see Brandon and let him know how thankful you are for people like him.
We second that sentiment! People like Brandon deserve lots of recognition for their basic goodness.
Be sure to SHARE this story to spread the word about Brandon's kind behavior!
