To The 20-year-old Construction Worker Who Offered Me A Cheeseburger At 9:30am Because I Was Crying In My Car

By a friend • March 10, 2025

I was a cultural resource monitor on a construction site.

I was sobbing in my truck one morning because I was 2,000 miles from home and going through a nasty divorce. I was snapped out of my self-pitying stupor by a timid knock on the window, and look up to see one of the younger kids on the crew.

I rolled down my window and all he said was “I just thought you might want this” and handed me a piping hot gas station cheeseburger 😂

It was absolutely the most kindness anyone had shown me in a long time, and I still think about it to this day.

Yes, I totally ate that morning burger, and yes it made me feel better.
