"Our New Idiot" by Melissa Delbridge... Melissa works for a cafe, Melissa has a coworker named Hardy. Hardy wad viewed as the village idiot. When it came to collecting tips, Hardy would take the nickel rather than take the quarter. When Melissa asks him why he does that, hardy replies with "if I ever take the quarter, even just one time, you'll all quit doing it." and Melissa ended her story by mentioning that they need to find a new village idiot...
I liked this short story because I feel that Hardy made Melissa feel bad for judging him..
