My goodness… The Mean Girls were on duty. I too would have walked to T1 - the reward was not just a full Yeti, but a sweet reminder that kindness exists, sometimes in unexpected places. It will always outshine petty behaviour and warm the heart. It costs nothing, but can change everything.
I would have hiked like you back for the full tumbler of hot water, and thought, "oh well, I guess I am getting my steps in for the day too ;-)" How ridiculous to be put in the position to have to charge for hot water though...and to uphold that policy. I worked at Starbucks in NYC in college and we had to charge for hot water. I think you were fortunate to find kind souls at the airport.

Been there for sure! Thanks for sharing this important message on kindness.
Thanks Larel, it costs us nothing to be kind.
