nice not being electrocuted
- I was in the U.S. Air Force working on electronic equipment. I was in a room by myself struggling with a dangerous piece of gear when I realized I might be in over my head. He was suddenly standing along side me and said"let me help you with that". I didn't even know he had come in the room. He didn't even ask. He saw I was in trouble and he helped. We got it done and nobody got hurt. Thanks man. Wherever you are I still owe you for that one.

nice coworker
- I was in a car accident close to work. My coworker came to the scene, placed me in her van while I waited for the tow truck and to make a police statement, drove me home, helped me retrieve my things from the totaled car ... in the snow... and helped me with insurance problems. She also laughs at me, smiles when I walk in the door, and sometimes brings me coffee.

Nice Co-Worker
- We take turns covering the receptionist desk during lunch. There have been times when I couldn't just drop what I was doing to cover. My dear office neighbor on more than one occasion has jumped in and covered for me. Wish the whole office was like her.
