Ready for the next Random Act of Kindness.Īdam went to the Tire Warehouse, on Rideout Street in Waterville, and as the mounting of the new tires on the rims is being done, he is chatting with the manager of Tire Warehouse, telling him the story of her determination to above and beyond all else still get to work and on time. They had the correct tires in stock and they could get them mounted the quickest. They called various tire places and decided on Tire Warehouse. They decided to call around and get prices for 2 new tires for the woman, and also decided that they would pay for the pair of tires as a goodwill gesture.
