I've had a pair of guys run over to help lift an Ikea bookshelf into the trunk of a car when another person and I were struggling with it. Once at work, I was wheeling in a heavy metal cart from outside to protect it from the rain, when a wheel broke off and tumbled merchandise all over everywhere. An employee from the business next door came out, and actually hopped a small fence to help me clean up and right the (veryvery heavy metal) cart (I could not have done it without his help). <br /><br />It's always nice when people are selflessly kind. :)olde.fashionedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03575442331973899878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2378742297865281772.post-85611924181034724462010-10-20T21:23:18.904-06:002010-10-20T21:23:18.904-06:00Simple things can make all the difference. On cam...Simple things can make all the difference. On campus, students are always hosting canned food drives, or breast cancer awareness, bake sales and such. Most people walk by them and pretend not to hear them! Sometimes if I'm in a hurry I tell them, "I'm sorry, I'm really rushing! I'll come back!" And I do most of the time, unless I forget or really don't have $1. <br /><br />Today I bought a $15 breast cancer awareness shirt. And apparently I started the whole thing, because a ton of people walked up and bought shirts after me. <br /><br />I do my best to hold doors open, and just use basic manners. Karma: what goes around, comes around. :) :)Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02472586448662276227noreply@blogger.com
