St Petersburg, FL – A woman started an act of kindness chain that lasted for hours at a Starbucks drive-thru in Florida.

She ordered an iced coffee around 7 a.m. Wednesday in St. Petersburg and asked to pay for the caramel macchiato for the stranger in the car behind her. He returned the favor. The chain kept going as employees began keeping count.
The Tampa Bay Times (http://bit.ly/1ndJ16p) reports the chain finally ended around 6 p.m. when customer number 379 pulled up and ordered a regular coffee. Barista Vu Nguyen leaned out the window and explained the chain that started earlier in the day, asking if she’d like to participate. She declined, saying she only wanted to pay for her coffee.
Nguyen says he doesn’t believe she understood the concept of paying it forward.
Nice, cute story
!!!
If she paid for her coffee – surely it was already paid for by the guy infront!
So what happened to the money she paid for her regular coffee? Taken by the staff? or go towards the extra large frappachino latte (or whatever she ordered) in the car behind?
Seems to me that the ONLY person who did any chessed here, was the first woman who paid for the coffee the car behind ordered.
If people will keep showing kindness to their fellow man there would be a better peaceful world
