Default Delivery guy and broke zipper.

I had furniture delivered today. The young guy saw my sewing machine and said. May I pay you to put a zipper in my favorite work jacket? I really like the jacket and can't find another like it. I secretly moaned inside but said I'll have to look at it first. He said ok I have it in the truck. LOL It was a regular metal zipper. He had to put together some of the furniture so I took the jacket, pulled a new zipper out of my stash, cut off the teeth of his old zipper and sewed the new one onto the old zipper. Took longer threading my machine and changing the needle size. I handed it to him on his way out. He was stunned. You really did this? That fast? How much do I owe you? It's wonderful. Thank you so much. I said this will be your tip. He said his wife won't believe it and he needs to buy her a sewing machine. LOL
