Today at work I had one of those 'don't judge a book by its cover' experiences I thought I'd share....
This homeless man and his son came into my work for lunch (I know they're homeless, I've seen him on the streets and they definitely smell homeless), they had a couple of drinks, one pizza and a dessert, their bill came to $36, he gave me a $50 and I obviously gave the change back to the man. They stayed for about another fifteen or so minutes and once they left I went to clear the glasses off their table and there on the table was a $15 tip. I was so shocked that this homeless man left such a huge tip, especially since probably at least half of the people that come into my work don't tip (which is fine, it's not something I expect) and the fact that this man is homeless!
I think that this just goes to show you should treat people that you come across how you would like to be treated and to not 'judge a book by its cover' because they may just surprise you!
