Middle School Boys Restore Internet's Faith in Humanity With Strikingly Good Manners and Tidy Table

Middle School Boys Restore Internet's Faith in Humanity With Strikingly Good Manners and Tidy Table
When a group of eighth graders visited a Michigan restaurant for some wings, their waitress was awestruck by their simple acts of kindness and courtesy.

A group of young boys has restored a woman's faith in humanity after they showed particular care and courtesy towards her at work.

Nicole Marie, who works as a waitress at the Red Dog Saloon in Milford, Michigan, was surprised to be serving a table of seven middle schoolers earlier this month.

"They asked if they had enough money to cover 40 wings and pops," Marie recalled in a Facebook post. "I looked around confused, wondering where their parents were. I asked if they were alone and they said ‘yes, and we've been looking forward to this for weeks!'

"They were so excited and were EXTREMELY polite the whole entire time," she continued, "using please and thank you and trying to make it as easy as possible for me to get their order; they even told me they'd tip well. One of the boys even told his friend to get off the phone when I was talking to them!

"It was so heartwarming to see how much they were trying, especially when there were no parents around to scold them if they weren't on their best behavior."

Marie later told TODAY that her experience with the eighth grade boys was the most positive serving experience she has had at the Red Dog Saloon since she started working there ten years ago.

When they left, they even took care to make her job easier by tidying up the table, stacking their dishes, and putting all their trash into a pile.

She wasn't the only one who paid attention to their good manners, either—a neighboring patron ended up picking up the tab for the boys and telling them to pay it forward. Furthermore, her Facebook post about the boys' table has been shared more than 10,000 times since she posted it to social media this month.

"I just wanted to give a big props to the parents of these boys—keep doing what you're doing!!" Marie concluded. "Pictured is how they left the table! Even grown adults (myself included) rarely leave the table this clean!"
