There was an excerpt in The Gazette in March about a Concordia University student that took a taxi to meet her friends for breakfast. The story was included in a section titled "Random Acts of Kindness." It stated:
"On Saturday morning I took a taxi to meet a friend for breakfast. Upon arrival at the restaurant, the taxi driver mentioned that he thought the total amount was too high and thought that he may have forgotten to clear the previous fare. I also thought the fare was high but not unusual. About 10 minutes later the taxi driver showed up at the table and stated that he checked the meter. He did overcharge the student and gave her a $5."
This taxi driver took the time to check his meter and return the $5 bill, despite the fact that the customer did not verbally question his mistake. Considering today's economic crunch, it was incredibly kind of a taxi driver to reach out to a customer.
If you witness a random act of kindness, inform The Montreal Gazette:
