Daily routine work can be boring, but sometimes, you get surprised by the little, wonderful things.
This woman works in a shoe store, and one day she received a call that was unlike any call she had ever received.
It was from a child who wanted to ask for a particular pair of shoes.
Read the full story below for all the details.
The best phone call I had all day
I work in a shoe store as an assistant manager.
I carry a store phone on me so I can answer it wherever I am in the store.
Today, the phone would not stop ringing.
People wanted to know what time we closed, where we were located, and a ton of shoe checks.
This woman received a call from a kid.
So, the phone rings, and I answer it, and it sounds like a little kid.
K will be the kid.
K: Uhm… hello? Do you carry all black high top vans for kids?
Me: Let me check for you really quick. I’m sorry, we only have the low top vans in all black for kids.
She told him they carry only size 2.
K: Okay. Well, I like those, too.
Me: What size shoe do you wear?
K: One and a half
Me: Okay. So, I don’t have a one and a half, but I do have a size two.
K: Okay. That sounds good.
She heard the kid’s mom in the background.
Me: Would you like me to hold it for you?
K: Yes, please.
Me: Okay. What is your name?
The phone got really quiet like he was hesitating.
Then I heard someone in the background. It was his mom.
She told him that they would hold the shoe for him.
Mom: Give her your name.
K: Tyler.
Me: Okay, Tyler. I’m going to hold this shoe for you. So when you and your mom come in, just come up to the counter and tell us you have a shoe on hold under your name.
It was the cutest phone call she had ever received.
K: Okay, thank you. Have a nice day.
Me: Absolutely. You have a nice day, too.
It was the most wholesome phone call I have ever experienced in my four years of retail.
I love that his mom had him call and ask about his shoes.
Today was a good day.
