Another freebie

On my way back from Blythe I stopped for a shower at the Flying J in Ehrenberg.

The cashier asked, "Do you have a rewards card?"

"No."

"Are you a professional driver?"

"No."

At this point they usually ask for twelve dollars. Instead, he got on the intercom and said, "Eric, my computer shows showers 3 and 14 are available. I'm sending back a guy in a gray shirt with a white beard. Give him one of those."

"Why, thank you."

Eric directed me to shower 14.

"Thank you."

This has happened five or six times before. Or a trucker in line behind me will offer one of the free showers he'd accrued with his rewards card. There are nice people in the world. I left a tip.
