Hard-Working Teen Cashier With Disability Receives Generous Tip From Customer

Just because a person has a disability, doesn’t mean he is incapable of reaching his dreams. More often than not, people with physical limitations are the ones who are more hardworking and persevered.

Meet Ryheem

16-year-old Ryheem Lumpkins is an inspiring teen from Independence, Missouri who continues fighting a good fight in life despite his physical disability.

His Condition

He has a physical condition where his arms and hands weren’t fully developed, but he didn’t let it hinder him from chasing his dreams.

Hard Working Teen

Even as a student at William Christian High School, Ryheem also got a part-time job as a cashier at a local Pizza Ranch, and he’s one of the most exceptional employees there.

He’s An All-Around

When he’s not busy at the counter, Ryheem takes the initiative in sweeping the floors or wiping down the buffet.

A Generous Tipper

One day, a customer named Robert Samay noticed the teen’s excellent work so he expressed his appreciation to him and left him a five-dollar bill.

Heartwarming Words

The generous tip aside, what Robert said was what resonated the most with him. He told the teen, “I appreciate your infectious smile and your exceptional attitude. Such qualities are a rarity these days, especially among young individuals.”

He’s Back

After a month, Robert returned to the pizza place. He asked Ryheem if he remembered him, and he said yes. He honored him by telling him about his good traits that really impressed him during his last visit to the restaurant.

$2500 Tip

The woman who accompanied Robert then started handing out fifty-dollar bills to Ryheem that amounted to $2500.

He Was Speechless

The teen was overwhelmed by what just happened. He rose from his seat and hugged Robert as he expressed his gratitude. He said, “To be completely honest, I was rendered speechless. I have never experienced anything like this before in my life.”
