My Trash 2.5 Year Old Work Shoes, Her Needed Treasure…

By A Friend • April 1, 2025

Early this morning I was donating multiple bags of clothes to the thrift. This thrift leaves bins out front so it’s super easy to drop and go.

I pull my old work crocs out (server) because I just bought a new pair after 2.5 years of use I needed a new size and just a fresh pair.

Anyway, a lady is walking past, in her fast food uniform, and asks me if she can have my crocs I’m about to put in the trash. I wasn’t going to donate them because they were pretty gross and I try to be considerate of what I’m donating.. in my mind those crocs were trash to be honest.

I’m like yeah sure but they’re pretty gross even inside.

She’s like it’s okay what size? I can clean them up really good.

I let her know what size, and tell her she can absolutely have them if she wants.

She lets me know she works at fast food place which is where she seemed to be walking from as it was in the next lot, and she really needed a pair of nonslip shoes. I toss them into her 711 plastic bag she held open.

She thanked me kindly and said “you never know where your next blessing is coming from” and proceeded to wish me a great rest of my day.

I got in my car and cried so hard. I don’t know who helped who more this morning, because that lady humbled me so hard. I’ve been so ungrateful for everything I have lately and I’m so thankful to have crossed paths with this kind lady.

I wish her the best.
