Helpfulness and Kindness in small the things goes a long way

On the the 15th of March 2026 my family and I went to the nearest Checkers supermarket that was at that time, nearest to us. It is the Checkers supermarket, Lavender Square. We wanted to get sushi for lunch. And any time you purchase sushi at a Checkers store, it usually comes with a little container of soy sauce, which is free. However, the sushi I choose on that day didn't have any. Which would mean I would have to purchase some. However I asked for assistance from a very kind gentleman who works at this Checkers - Mr Lucian Swartland- for assistance, if he could get us the soy sauce that was supposed to already be inside the packaged sushi. He checked and saw that the personwho does sushi was done for the day and had backed away everything to do with sushi. But a few minutes, while we were still near his work station, he asked a security guard who was near us to get our attention, as he had found an almost if not more than 5L bottle of soy sauce. He asked us to wait for a few minutes, as he proceeded to pour some soy sauce for me as there wasn't any in my packaged sushi. Mr Lucian Swartland(from Checkers, Lavender Square) was very kind. He went the extra mile to help a customer and with a smile at that. Thank you sir for you kindness and for being diligent with something so small. It made me happy that someone would take their time to do something that wasn't necessarily their job. Thank you
