A Minnesota Dairy Queen manager is getting widespread kudos for an act
of kindness that required giving one customer the deep freeze
treatment after some questionable behavior.
Joey Prusak had just finished serving one of his regular customers
when the visually impaired man unknowingly dropped a $20 bill from his
pocket. A woman in line behind him quickly picked up the money – and
then put it in her purse.

"Your employee approached the man and took out his wallet and said,
'Sir, on behalf of the Dairy Queen, I would like to give you the $20
you dropped on the ground as you walked away from the counter,”
according to the letter, which was sent by an anonymous writer.
The customer sent the note to the owner of the store where Prusak has
worked for the past five years, since he was 14. The store owner
printed out the note, which was soon posted by a co-worker on his
Facebook page. Eventually, the message made its way around the
Internet and got picked up on Reddit.
Prusak, who is studying business management at the local community
college, is taking all the attention in modest stride. He said the
store's owner has called the international Dairy Queen office, hoping
executives there will reward Prusak, who races cars as a hobby, by
sponsoring a NASCAR vehicle he wants to buy. "I didn't expect it to go
anywhere. I didn't tell anyone. I didn't tell my boss. I didn't even
tell my own parents," he said. "A lot of people are saying 'thank you'
for what I did. Just telling me that means a lot."

(The story with new video just was on the local news here.)
Based on the Location line, I would suspect that this is his Dad.
Joey might be a "Fourth".

A lesson here. If you see something "good" happen, "pass it up the
line" to the manger, the chain headquarters etc. This applies inside
of NS too! Let's REINFORCE the POSITIVE!
