Goodwill Fresh Out Of The Oven In Ooralea

A Woolworths bakery worker in Ooralea has gone above and beyond this week, committing an act that earnt her some ‘brownie points’ on a local community forum.

Racheal Van Damme took to the Mackay Noticeboard Facebook page to commend a mystery staff member on her thoughtful actions.

Racheal states, “To the beautiful lady who works at Ooralea, who asked if I needed help while I was looking at cakes for my daughter’s birthday.

“[She] took the cake to the counter along with the flowers and chocolates we already had in our hands and then gifted them to us! You are amazingly kind and a beautiful soul.”

Locals in the comment section quickly began the search, naming Patty Ungerer as the selfless employee, who put everyone in positive spirits after reading Racheal’s post.

Others responded in delight, with comments such as, “A beautifully kind and thoughtfully selfless lady.”

“That is awesome, I hope Woolworths congratulates her. Great PR for them.”
