Man spotted by Starbucks Executive given gift card for his act of kindness TikTok: @jontayblackA man who said he was awarded a Lifetime Starbucks Gift Card for his kind act to an employee was indeed given a gift card, although it wasn\u2019t quite for a lifetime. In a video that\u2019s gone viral on TikTok, a man said he was awarded a Lifetime Starbucks Gift Card for his act of kindness toward a new employee. Although it seemed too good to be true \u2013 and to some extent it was \u2013 they did receive a gift card. In the video, the man explains that he\u2019d asked for a pretty straightforward item: a Strawberry Lemonade. The girl serving him, however, was new to the establishment, and was having some trouble putting his order through on the computer. \u201cIt was a new girl and she didn\u2019t know how to put the order in,\u201d he explains. This meant several mix-ups, where he ended up with the wrong order more than once. The man didn\u2019t get frustrated, however, and decided to handle the situation with kindness. He acknowledges that everyone has tough days in work, and practiced patience and politeness with the new employee. Little did he know that a Starbucks Executive was watching the whole encounter. He thought that the man deserved to be rewarded for his act of kindness. He then said he was handed over a Lifetime Starbucks Gift Card. \u201cShoutout to Starbucks for making my day,\u201d the TikToker said. \u201cShe gave me a lifetime Starbucks gift card.\u201d Starbucks Gift Card too good to be true? When approached about the occurrence, a Starbucks Spokesperson released a statement that revealed the story was a little too good to be true. \u201cThe positive interaction did occur, it was a true example of how our partners work to uphold the customer experience every day. However, the gift card the customer received was for $5,\u201d they said. With prices rising exponentially in fast food places, Starbucks is no exception. For some of their beverages, you\u2019ll pay as much as $5.95. Take-out coffee is also one of the most popular options for customers, with a report showing that women will spend a colossal $2,327 on coffee each year. Men will spend $1,934 on average. Therefore, a Starbucks Lifetime Gift Card would be one of the most coveted items coffee fans can win. Even though Jontay wasn\u2019t lucky enough to be given one of these, the video proves that kindness is rewarded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
