Sixty-eight-year-old Domino's delivery driver Dan Simpson learned that the pizza shop had run out of Diet Coke, which he needed for one of their orders. He tried to contact the customer, but no one answered. The driver decided not to cancel the order. He went to the store and bought two bottles of Coke at his own expense.

Sixty-eight-year-old Domino's delivery driver Dan Simpson became a social media sensation after he went to the store to buy Diet Coke after the restaurant ran out.

The customer couldn't be reached, but he didn't cancel the order and bought two bottles at his own expense. The customer and his wife, who are visually impaired, posted a video on TikTok, which has garnered over 600,000 views. In gratitude, he launched a fundraiser for the driver, and in eight days, users donated nearly $45,000.

Що тут взагалі сталося такого надзвичайного? Людина навряд чи знала про проблему клієнтів. По дорозі купила напій і просто доповнила замовлення. За що їй стільки подяк — незрозуміло. Це просто нормальне виконання роботи, хоча в сучасному світі навіть це вже здається рідкістю
