WATCH: This guy tells the waiter he is short for the bill...
Updated | By The Workzone with Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp
Certainly a feel good moment here...
It is quite rare to find someone going above and beyond to help you out when you are in a bind.
Especially in a restaurant, not because they don't want to help, but because sometimes it is beyond their control.
In this case, it was so humbling to see how this waiter went out of his way, but made it seem like nothing to help a patron out.
Mind you, he did not know that the patron was in fact filming him and it was all a set up to see how he would respond.
Sort of a kindness tester, if we can call it that.
The patron is actually an online motivator and posts videos that are meant to spread love and inspire people to be kind.
In the video, the patron tells the waiter that he doesn't have the full total to pay for the bill, but he doesn't want to say anything in front of his girlfriend as he is embarrassed.

At times, we assume that waiters are just unhappy in their jobs, but this guy's attitude was everything.
He took time and was patient to help the customer out, and not only that, but he was so humble about it.
We don't blame people for being sarcastic or cynical in this world, we all haven't been dealt a good hand, especially over the last couple of years.
But here's our two cents worth: Sometimes just changing your outlook and being grateful for what you do have, can change your luck.
After all, look what happened with this guy, his kindness earned him a chunky $1,000 tip!
