Four Louisiana police officers were working their shifts as normal, and when they became hungry, they decided to go to Outback Steakhouse to grab a bite to eat for dinner. What they didn’t know was that as soon as they walked in the door, the manager and server took notice of their uniforms and planned to send them a message on their receipt.
Every day, law enforcement puts their lives on the line to ensure the safety of the general public. One restaurant staff member decided to thank their local police in a special way!
The Slidell police officers often visit the local Outback Steakhouse for lunch, dinner, and even late-night meals. Manager Arline Wood has nothing but nice things to say about the officers that visit her restaurant! She loves having them in, and server Zoe says, “They’re the sweetest guys.”
They always treat the staff with respect and dignity, and Arline appreciates their continued patronage. That night, two employees decided to take special care of some of the officers that had come in at the end of their shift. The Outback duo picked up the check for the four officers that were dining that night! Totaling around $67, server Zoe dropped off the receipt with a little note thanking the men for all that they do.
The officers were very moved by this kind gesture and gave Zoe a large tip in return! They posted a picture of the receipt on the Slidell PD Facebook page and received even more positive feedback. Slidell PD said,
“Words can’t describe how this makes all of us feel. THANK YOU MS. ARLENE AND ZOE FOR BEING SO KIND AND SHOWING YOUR APPRECIATION FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT.”
Manager Arline said she never expected this kind of media attention; she just wanted to thank the officers for their service.
Arline and Zoe hope this helps inspire other people to take the time to thank the men in blue. Now, more than ever, the police officers need to be reminded that we still appreciate what they do!
These women were able to show their gratitude and respect to the officers who serve their community! Let’s hope more people take a page out of their book and pay it forward. A positive act like this helps to combat all of the negativity in the world.
The old dog found and rescued the puppy who was freezing in the snow
An old dog named Ben found a puppy sleeping in the snow.He decided to come to his aid and take him somewhere warm. Ben practically immobilized the child by grabbing him by the scruff of the neck with his fangs and dragging him inside the warm sanctuary.
Ben’s owner was a generous individual who felt obliged to help the cold puppy. The dog pulled the baby inside and laid him down on his bedding. The dog could not get warm and continued to shiver.
The baby’s owner made him some milk, which he took a few sips of before turning away because he was too sick to continue drinking. With time, the shaking stopped, and the puppy was able to sleep. But he was a restless sleeper who trembled and complained all the time.
The baby slept for quite some time. When he woke up, the stranger looked him over. He detested how the animal’s legs looked. Wrapped in a blanket, he brought the dog to the veterinarian. After evaluating the patient, the physician suggested a course of action.
