2:38
natalie watched as the man ate the food
2:40
in a hurry when he was halfway through
2:43
the meal the restaurant owner arrived
2:45
and asked the manager about the smell in
2:47
an instant the manager blamed natalie
2:51
this smelly homeless man came in
2:53
i tried to shoo him away but natalie
2:55
offered her lunch to him and now the
2:57

3:12
tightly
3:13
dead he cried
3:15
i've been looking for you for weeks
3:17

3:19
the manager's face turned pale
3:21
dad he knew he had made a terrible
3:23
mistake and was starting to play out
3:25
several scenarios in his head
3:28
i was lost
3:29
and then i saw this restaurant and i
3:31
knew it looked familiar i was right it
3:34

3:35
explained
3:36
that girl over there she helped me he
3:39
pointed toward natalie everyone was
3:41
trying to kick me out even the manager
3:44
but this girl asked me to sit down and
3:46
she gave me her food
3:48
the restaurant owner took his father
3:49
home so he could rest and freshen up
3:52
after a few hours he returned to the
3:54
restaurant while natalie was working her
3:56
shift she called her into his office and
3:58
thanked her for what she did
4:00
i've always prayed for god to give me
4:02
employees like you who are passionate
4:04
about what they do and are compassionate
4:07
towards other people
4:08
thank you for helping my dad out even
4:10
though you didn't know who he was
4:12
i've decided to promote you to branch
4:14
manager he declared
4:16
i know you're a working student so add
4:18
up your salary so that you don't need to
4:20
work two jobs anymore
4:22
use your evenings to rest how does that
4:24
sound
4:26
natalie was in tears by then she was
4:28
having such a hard time juggling school
4:30
and her two jobs
4:32
and the opportunity to quit one without
4:34
losing money was too good to be true
4:37
you'd really do that for me sir she
4:39
asked him her boss nodded his head yes i
4:43
want you to have enough time to focus on
4:44
your studies
4:46
you can do that while working two jobs
4:48
quit the other one and do your normal
4:50
shifts here but as a manager you deserve
4:53
it
4:54
natalie was grateful to her boss with a
4:56
promotion she had more time for herself
4:58
which allowed her to excel in school
5:00
while enjoying her job
5:02
meanwhile the former manager was taught
5:04
a very painful lesson when he was fired
5:06
from his job
5:08
the boss told him he could not meet
5:09
their company's standards on what it
5:11
means to be a good employee he said
5:14
in this restaurant we place values over
5:16
everything else
5:18
we welcome everyone here if you don't
5:20
respect that you don't belong here
5:23
do good and it will always come back to
5:25
you
5:26
natalie wanted to help the old man
5:27
because she felt bad for him without
5:30
realizing that he was helping her boss's
5:31
father
5:32
in the end she was rewarded for her
5:34
selflessness and it changed her life for
5:36
the better when you're in a position to
5:39
help someone do it when natalie realized
5:42
that nobody was going to help the old
5:43
man
5:44
she stepped in and offered her meal to
5:46
him
5:47
likewise when the boss found out about
5:49
natalie's kindness he made sure to repay
5:52
her by giving her a promotion and
5:54
allowing her to earn more which eased
5:56
her worries about being able to pay for
5:58
her tuition
