I had one of those experiences that truly redeems your faith in humanity. I m writing this review in 2020, the year of the Pandemic. I, like many people this year, am very hard up financially. I gratefully booked a job in Kansas City at a convention in the Hilton hotel. On my way back to the airport, the Manager (John Parker) overheard me requesting the shuttle service. Unfortunately, they aren t running it due to Covid. Because my checking account is extremely low (too low for a Lyft or Uber, I m embarrassed to admit) I needed to request a taxi service that would take cash. Shortly after I left the building to contact this cash option taxi, John came out and offered to personally drive me to the airport. With no judgement or self-righteous altruism, he conversed respectfully and with all the class of a man who has spent years working in the Hospitality business. He dropped me off at the airport and drove away with a good samaritans karma. And I started my Monday in awe of mankind s capabilities. It was a simple interaction that, in the midst of the struggle of this year, felt nearly miraculous.
