I wanted to share a quick story from last night...
I was at the gym working out when one of the employees from @DunkinDonuts came in with two full boxes of donuts and left them on the front counter.

He& #39;s also a member at the gym and as he started working out I approached him and asked if the donuts were for anyone. He said yes.
As I grabbed a Boston Creme he came over and we started talking.

Since I& #39;m in Dunkin Donuts everyday for my bagel bites... we always say hi to each other and he& #39;s always extremely nice and courteous.
He told me that every night Dunkin has to throw away the leftover donuts, muffins, etc.

Jonah: why doesn& #39;t Dunkin setup a program where those leftover products can be sent to a local homeless shelter
DD guy: Dunkin used to do this but then someone in a shelter sued Dunkin for something dumb and actually won a million dollars

Jonah: well, maybe it& #39;s better that people aren& #39;t living off donuts and muffins
DD guy: I used to live in a shelter and the food is horrible, I& #39;d rather live on donuts and muffins
DD guy: I used to live in a shelter and the food is horrible, I& #39;d rather live on donuts and muffins
DD guy: I used to find better food going through the trash cans at the food court in the mall
Jonah: wait a minute, you used to eat of trash cans, are you serious?
Jonah: wait a minute, you used to eat of trash cans, are you serious?
DD guy: yes, I made some very bad decisions in my life, I was a bad alcoholic, unemployed and living on the streets
Jonah: how and when did you turn it around?
Jonah: how and when did you turn it around?
DD guy: 2 years ago me and my friend were wasted and we almost died in a car crash, I woke up covered in blood and it was the moment that I decided to get sober
DD guy: I& #39;ve been sober for 2 years now and thankfully was able to get a job at Dunkin Donuts.
DD guy: I& #39;ve been sober for 2 years now and thankfully was able to get a job at Dunkin Donuts.
DD guy: I could probably stay home and collect unemployment like many of my friends are still doing but I& #39;m just thankful to be working and putting my life back together
We then spent the next 20 minutes talking about stocks, crypto, sports, the pandemic, the vaccine and a bunch of other stuff.
I think I& #39;m still in shock.
