To accomplish the mission of conducting some form of prosocial behavior towards an individual, for whom I have never met, was a challenging task to go about completing. I came across the idea of the perfect way to do this. I drove into Tecumseh, MI and proceeded my way to the McDonald’s drive through. After arriving I first gave my order, which irrelevantly was a large iced tea, and then I instructed the drive through attendant to inform me of the price of the order behind me. After being told the amount of the following order, which was approximately eight dollars, I asked the cashier to use the money I gave her, not only for my order by the following one as well. By doing this I was able to conduct the prosocial act for a stranger, while avoiding receiving any type of reward. In my opinion this was the most efficient way to complete my task. After the deed was done I felt fairly content with myself, for the fact that I conducted an act of kindness expecting nothing in return, my intentions felt pure, as did I.
