Working at a dealership I get all kinds of panic calls. A guy calls the store one day from Chicago in a panic cause his daughter locked the keys in her car at the mall. Company rules state we cant cut keys without proof of ownership so since he was 2 hours away my guys cant help so the call lands in my lap. He was kinda hysterical and said his daughter was handicapped, so I said that I could cut the key and take it to her all she needed was to show mw her license. I drove over to the mall and here stands this beautiful 20 year old girl in tears. Her handicap was she had no arms from above the elbow down but did have prosthetic arms with hooks. I unlocked her car, did not care to ask for her license. She tried to give me a $20 but I would not take it. This girls eyes and face could have melted anyones heart I mean she was just gorgeous. She went on her way and her father called me back about an hour later to thanks me. He said when she was 15 she had a severe case of Hepatitus and had lost both her arms and almost her life. He ended up sending a thank you note to my boss and myself. the note really made my day and I keep it on my desk so when I am having a $hitty day I can read it and realize my life aint that bad
