This Week’s Independent Thinker

473

Alex Ruiz is a server at Cinco de Mayo Mexican Grill in Douglasville, Georgia.

Recently a man walked in, ordered his food and sat down to wait. When his food was delivered, Alex realized the man had no hands. The man obviously needed some assistance, but for the most part had been able to get himself fed on his own with some adjustments.

But Alex Ruiz sat down with the man and fed him, forkful after forkful, bite by bite. Alex talked to the man the entire time, a good half hour according to those who witnessed it.

Neither Alex nor the unidentified man was seeking attention, but another diner happened to witness the entire incident, take a pic and post it on social media.

This is shareworthy on so many levels. Not the least of which is Southern hospitality.
