It should not be surprising that many people need to work constantly in order to survive given the state of the world today.
You’ve probably heard a lot about people who try to manipulate the system; about the select few who seem to get by without working, managing to stay afloat without working, and profiting from other people’s generosity.
However, there are countless upright, decent people who struggle to make ends meet for every “freeloader.”. These people work as many hours as they can each day in an effort to make ends meet, even though some of them may be struggling financially.
Bethany Provencher is one of them, according to sources. She changed her address to St. After 18 years as a dedicated single mother with an 11-year-old son in Miami, she moved to Charles, Illinois a few years ago in search of a new beginning.
With her 25 years in the customer service industry, Bethany was able to secure a job at an IHOP in the area and sign a lease for a brand-new apartment in The Magic City.
Even so, she was aware that things would be challenging for a while because, by all accounts, she had been unable to adequately furnish her new apartment due to a lack of money.
Then, the day before the new year, a famous couple walked into the IHOP Bethany was working at and took a seat in her area of the restaurant.
Bethany knew the man to be Donnie Wahlberg, who was with his wife Jenny McCarthy.
It was said Bethany had a hard time keeping her excitement in check. The waitress had a soft spot for Donnie because she adored the band Donnie was in, New Kids on the Block.
Therefore, working with him made Bethany extremely happy. She had no idea how significantly that day would affect the rest of her life.
The singer paid the $35.27 tab for Donnie and his family after they had finished their meal and left a note for Bethany to read on the receipt. Thanks, Bethany, and happy new year were written next to a cartoonish grin.
Donnie reportedly pleaded with Bethany to wait to examine the receipt until he and his wife had left the IHOP. Bethany followed directions but was stunned to see that Donnie had left her and her coworkers a $2,020 tip when she finally opened the receipt.
In the video below, Donnie’s generosity is discussed further:.
Wow, what a kind act, and I’m sure it meant a lot to Bethany after her major relocation to Illinois!
