[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 659468, member: 1550"] I didn't even BUY anyone anything today. I noticed a new co-worker, who was extremely shy, near tears on her phone trying to get a cab and saw her looking frustrated. Since I was sitting near her in the break room I heard her say something like, "Well..maybe my uncle can drive me home later..." She seemed really distraught. When she got off I asked her if she needed a ride home and she looked down and mumbled about how she can't get through to the cab company...she keeps getting disconnected...so I told her I'd drive her home and I did drive her. It turns out she is living at the woman's shelter in town so she must be running from some abusive relationship, poor kid. She thanked me over and over again and I turned down two dollars when she offered it to me. It was no big deal. I had to take Sonic shopping after work anyway, but I don't think this girl has been treated well by most people in her young life. It felt good to give her a ride and make her life a little bit easier today. Susie and dstc, very kind of you to help those girls!!! [/QUOTE]
