When Coworker’s Bike Gets Stolen, Pizza Shop Pulls Off Perfect Surprise.

A worker at Corner Brook’s Boston Pizza in Newfoundland, Canada just shared the sweetest story on Reddit. The worker, known as A. Richard, wrote that one of her coworkers, Charles, is an international student who bikes to work every day for his shift in the kitchen.

Recently, while Charles was working, someone stole his bike from outside the restaurant.

Richard describes her coworkers at Boston Pizza as being “like family,” so it’s no surprise they were quick to come up with a plan! Everyone at the pizza parlor secretly chipped in to buy a brand new bike for Charles!

Even though everyone chipped in, not everyone was working on the day they surprised him with his new ride. Of course they’d want to see his reaction, so the kitchen manager filmed the whole scene, starting with some of the crew wheeling the bike through the kitchen…

And out the back door, where Charles is standing, completely unaware that he’s about to be the beneficiary of an entire team’s genuine act of kindness. His reaction when he sees them walking toward him with his replacement bike? Priceless!

“I never forget, no matter how dark and hopeless the world looks, there are pockets of genuinely good people everywhere,” one viewer wrote.

“Despite all the negativity in the news, people still do good things to make the world great,” wrote another. “Look at how happy that guy is. Great job, people!”

So the next time you find yourself despairing about humanity, think back to this video, then go out and figure out a way to brighten someone else’s day.
