Strolled into one of my favourite fast-food joints, KFC the other day and was pleasantly surprised to find a physically challenged young man eagerly taking orders at the counter. Since the boy couldn’t speak, he welcomed all the customers with a pleasant smile! With a special menu card at his disposal, he clarified in sign language, which items to include. He was fast and prompt with taking down the orders, delivering the food and finally with clearing off our bills.
Once my bill was cleared, I wanted to specially thank him and say a few words of encouragement - but realised right then as well that he didn’t require any - for he isn’t anyone special but just one of us….probably only doing his job with little more alacrity and enthusiasm!
