HEARTS OF GOLD

17 RESTAURANT EMPLOYEES IN MICHIGAN VOLUNTARILY WORKED A SHIFT FOR FREE . . . JUST TO HELP OUT THEIR BOSS:

Over the past few months, business has been a little slower than usual at Mr. B's Pancake House in Muskegon, Michigan . So in order to help out the restaurant's owner . . . a guy named Dave Barham . . . 17 servers, cooks, busboys, dishwashers, cashiers and hostesses all decided to work a shift two Sundays ago . . . FOR FREE.

Why'd they do it? --It seems Dave is a pretty decent guy . . . and he's dipped into his own pockets more than a few times in order to meet payroll. According to one of the servers at the restaurant, "This is a wonderful business. We want to see it succeed . . . We wish we could have saved [Dave] $5,000. We wanted to give back to him, lighten the load a little."

At the end of the shift, the employees divided up the tips and they each took home $51. (Yahoo News) http://www.mrbspancakehouse.com/
