McDonald's employee praised for act of kindness after photo goes viral

A Chicago McDonald’s employee who closed the register during the dinner rush to help a disabled customer is being praised by the fast food chain.

A photo showing the employee, known only as Kenny, cutting food of an elderly disabled man was secretly taken by Facebook user Destiny Carrero. The image, which was first posted to Facebook last week, has been shared more than 250,000 times on Facebook and received more than 700,000 views on other social media platforms.

Carrero wrote that she was in line waiting to order when the man, who was in a wheelchair, took his food, before asking: “Please help me.”

It's still an evil corporation!
I worked for them over ten years. It's all about the bottom line. Could care less about the employees or anyone else.

Would be nice to see comments praising this young man instead of ""McDonalds is evil." Of course they are about their bottom line they are a huge chain fast food restaurant. It's not about the company, it's about this young man who has the common decency to think about someone else's well being. Good for him.

Make this world a better place, complete a random act of kindness each day without expecting anything in return.

"Random act of kindness" may have cost him his job because with McDonalds, it is the bottom line!

You folks who are complaining about McDonald's corporate empire have so much to learn. You don't have a clue what the hell you're talking about.

The topic for the day was "random act of kindness." Pay attention. SMH.

It's sad that there is this much hype over something people are supposed to be doing anyway. What has this world come to? :-(

I stopped reading here. Your comment is invalid due to your lack of usefulness in this world.

Kennys out there, thank you! There are many of you out there; more than you can imagine, that just do these things as an everyday matter of form.

All you other commenters, just kick in and do it as well and STFU!.
