Owner of a coffeeshop gave work to a homeless man - two weeks later, she found this in the kitchen
|
It all began in March 2016 when a homeless guy named Marcus walked into "Abi's Cafe" in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
He looked right at the cafe's owner, Casy Abigail, and asked her for some money.
"Why don't you have a job?" she asked, adding, "You know I didn't get anything for free, right?"
Marcus told Casy that more than anything, he just wanted a job.
But because of his criminal record, he couldn't find work, so he had to live on the streets.
Casy was really moved by Marcus's story and decided to take action.
Casy is the 20th owner of "Abi's Cafe."
She worked hard to keep the coffee shop running, which wasn't always busy.
When Marcus came in that day, she felt sorry for him. It was a busy time, and she could use some help, even though she could barely afford to pay anyone.
Casy posted on Facebook:
"I didn't have enough people that day, so I asked him, 'Do you want to work? I have a job for you!' His eyes lit up, and his smile made my day! He said, 'I will do anything I can for you.' So for almost two weeks now, he shows up on time for a 2-hour shift, helps with taking out the trash, doing the dishes, and more. And when I pay him, guess what? He buys food from my restaurant - he chooses to pay because it makes him feel good!"
Casy went on to say:
"With his new job, Marcus gained confidence and became a different person.
Do something nice for someone today and don’t judge them just because they ask for money outside. We don’t know their situation or background... some people deserve a second chance. God has blessed me, so why shouldn’t I bless others?"
