For 17-year-old Cohen Naulty, paying for a meal in coins wasn’t something to be frowned upon. This was simply something that he (and many others) had no choice but to do. One waitress didn’t see it this way, and decided to post what he did on the internet, leading to a slew of negative comments. Little did the waitress or anybody else know that Cohen had a trick up his sleeve to counter the shame he received from what was actually a misinterpreted act of kindness after all.
A Treat, Not a Regular Event
We’ve all been teenagers with little to no money, especially if pocket money only got you so far as to one social event with friends each month. Cohen had saved up in order to pay for a nice meal at a restaurant, but what happened next was a big shock to him. He initially hadn’t frowned upon what happened, but after reading about it online he knew it was a faux pas of some sorts.
