Trader Joe’s employees are reportedly screened for niceness during their interviews, which makes sense. If you don’t have good vibes to spread, then you can’t work at Trader Joe’s. Sorry, company policy.

One employee told Refinery29 about a heartwarming experience she had with her employer. The anonymous employee’s experience proves that a little kindness can go a long way, especially at work.

“My boss knew one of my coworkers, who was like everyone’s little sister, was going through some stuff and told me to walk her down to Starbucks on the clock to talk with her for a bit. It made me fall in love even more with the company.”
