Grandpa Sweater

There is a nice little story that goes with how I got this sweater. As some of you know I work at Jacob a Canadian clothing company. We have two sides to our store..one where it's regular adult clothes and the other side is lingerie. We all take turns with who works where but if you work in the lingerie side then you are by yourself because it's a smaller store. About 3 in a half weeks ago I was chatting with a customer about how much I loved her sweater. She told me her Aunt hand makes them for her every year from Calgary. We then ended up chatting a bunch more about Value Village and I complimented her on her Mukluk she was wearing. I helped her pick out some underwear and pajama sets and she was on her way. About 6 days ago when I was working on the clothing side my manager came up to me saying a lady just dropped off a bag and a card and wouldn't tell her name but told my manager to just read the card. I was seriously freaking out..I thought someone was going to yell at me or that I was getting hate mail from a previous customer. I walked in the back and saw this big Christmas bag that you can see below. I figured it wasn't hate mail from the happy Christmas bag but was still completely confused. I opened the card and it said "Thank you Sydney for your help the other day in the store. Enjoy the sweater! Merry Christmas" As soon as I opened the gift I knew exactly who it was from. It was the sweater I complimented the lady on the other day and she told me her Aunt gives her one every year so I can only assume she gave me the one she recently received from her Aunt. I was beyond thrilled and so thankful. I never knew people were so thoughtful in the world today and would do something so nice to a girl that helped her in Jacob. I was so happy and thought it was the nicest thing someone could ever do. It was a nice start to my Christmas.
