Woman Floored When She Saw What Store Employee Was Doing In Parking Lot
By Timfly

When a woman from Garner, North Carolina was finished shopping at her local Food Lion, she spotted a store employee in the parking lot as she was about to leave. Not thinking anything of it at first, when she took a closer look, she was left floored to see what he was actually doing, and she immediately snapped a photo.

Donna Bauer had been shopping at her local Food Lion when she noticed it was pouring rain outside. Braving the weather, she continued into the parking lot to load her groceries inside of her car. However, she was distracted from the task at hand when she spotted a Food Lion employee standing in the rain. When she took a closer look, she was left absolutely floored to see what he was doing – he was holding an umbrella for a dog.
Instead of positioning the umbrella in a way to protect both himself and the helpless animal from the downpour, he chose to expose part of his backside and get himself wet in order to allow the dog to stay as dry as possible. When Donna saw what he was doing for the animal, she realized she couldn’t let his selfless act to go unnoticed so she snapped a quick photo and shared it on the Love What Matters Facebook page, where it’s now going viral. Her post was simple, reading, “Employee of Food Lion in Garner, NC taking care of a customer.

The kind act has now been noticed by many people who are all floored by the employee’s selfless deed. “Oh how absolutely wonderful for this young man to give some shelter from the rainstorm to this poor dog stuck in this truck,” one commenter noted. However, some commenters were upset with the dog’s owner for leaving him in the rain, but I wouldn’t hesitate to assume that the weather was nice before the owner went inside the store, only for a rainstorm to ruin their plans.
Although it may seem like there are few people who remain kind-hearted in our cruel world, instances like these prove the opposite. When someone goes out of their way to ensure an animal’s comfort, sacrificing their own, there’s no doubt in my mind that they would do the same for a stranger.
