...$20 is not much to me, but it is several hours work for him.

This is a Dairy Queen in Minnesota, not some sweatshop in China. And he's a manager. I'm thinking 1.5-2 hours, tops.

Point well made. But chances are good many of us make 3-4 times what he does. I wouldn’t turn down someone who ran up to me and shoved a $20 into my hand, but I also don’t see $20 as much.

It can mean a lot for people around the median income...
