Police officers, emergency workers and first responders risk their lives everyday \u2013 to protect our communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It doesn\u2019t matter how long it takes or what time it is, they always try do their jobs and sometimes work long hours doing so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So when these four Louisiana police officers finished a long, tiring shift, they decided to head to their local Outback Steakhouse to grab some dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What they didn\u2019t know was the shock that was in store for them when they\u2019d finished their meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incident took place at the Outback Steakhouse in Slidell, Louisiana, where four on-duty local officers went to fuel up after work, according to Fox8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everything went according to plan and everything was as usual.

Their meal was served as it should be, and there wasn\u2019t really anything that stood out about the night \u2013 until the officers had their receipt and were hit with a huge surprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey\u2019re the sweetest guys,\u201d said Zo\u00eb Rao, who is a waitress at the Outback Steakhouse where the officers ate \u201cI enjoy waiting on them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, what happened next drew lots of attention on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manager Arline Wood, an 18-year veteran of the company, saw the officers come in and recognized them as regulars at the restaurant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only did the server and manager pick up their tab, there was also a heartfelt note on the ticket, thanking them for their service to the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It read, \u201cBe safe!\u201d written at the top and further down it said, \u201cThank y\u2019all for y\u2019all\u2019s service! Enjoy y\u2019all\u2019s meal on us!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey care about the community. They care about everybody. They\u2019re just great guys. Our whole police force is great and these guys at night, I went to Zo\u00eb and I said, let\u2019s take care of it,\u201d Arline Wood said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To show their gratitude, the officers reportedly left a hefty tip to show their own gratitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later, the Slidell Police Department wanted to pay tribute to the two Outback Steakhouse employees and posted an image of the receipt to their Facebook page.

It quickly went viral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, that\u2019s not what Arline Wood or Zo\u00eb Rao wanted at all. They did not want their wonderful act to come out in public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, when asked about it afterward, Arline Wood said the publicity has been a little too much to handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI got a phone call early in the morning and I was like what are you talking about?\u201d Wood recalled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPeople were calling me and then we saw it on Facebook, then it\u2019s on this one and that one, and we didn\u2019t do it for this publicity, because Lord knows I don\u2019t like all this publicity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But maybe there might be something good coming out from all the attention?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think this is the kind of things we need to see more iof, rather than hearing about police officers being denied service or otherwise being disrespected by people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s acts of appreciation like this that remind them of why they do, thank you to all first responders \u2013 you are greatly appreciated!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please share this on Facebook to inspire others to show their appreciation for those who risk their lives every day to keep us safe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
