ORIGINAL: feastie I leave coupons I'm not going to use under the product they go with for others. I hold doors open, even for men. I bought a bag of frozen peas for my boss last week, as he's having some shoulder problems and keeping ice on the area makes it feel better. We don't have ice at work. Frozen peas are a good substitute. All kinds of stuff, I don't think about it. You good lady. [;)] quote:
ORIGINAL: Quivver While a friend was at work I mucked all her stalls. LOL Q........ this sounds a lot kinkier than I think it may be [:-]. Random acts of kindness..... have bit me on the ass the last couple of times I've done them. Two examples: I was sitting in the parking lot of a store on a Sunday morning.... a car pulled up, and a young girl asked me if I knew of any veterinarians (sp?). I asked what was wrong, and she opened the door of her car, and showed me a puppy in a box, shit and blood everywhere. I got on the phone and called every place I knew, found one about 25 miles away. So I ended up giving them most of the money I had to go bring the dog to get help. The next day, I called the vet's office, to find no trace of anyone fitting their description ever showing up. 2nd example: I have a co-worker that is air-headedness personified. She is, and has been, in danger of losing her job due to one type of screw up in particular. She's also a nice person, and is in the process of getting a divorce, so she really couldn't handle being axed at the present time. Anyway, I came across another case of her letting another one of these particular mistakes get by her... instead of pointing it out to our employer (who is verrrrrry specific in that she expects that to happen), I fixed it for her and said nothing to anyone. Less than a month later, she found the same type of mistake, done by me.... she immediately went and showed El Bosso. I fucked up, and take responsibility for it, but it did gall me quite a bit.
