Story 4:
I was late three days in a row, right in the middle of probation. I thought I was going to be fired.
What I didn’t know is my coworker Jake had told HR I was helping him deal with a “family emergency” and vouched that I was working late hours off the books.
It wasn’t true — he just knew I was struggling to keep it together after a breakup. HR let it slide. I got promoted six months later.
He never mentioned it until years after we both left the company.
Story 5:
I was having a full-blown panic atta.ck in the middle of the street. I had just lost my job and hadn’t told anyone.
Out of nowhere, a woman came up to me, grabbed my hand, and said, “There you are!
I’ve been looking for you.”
She whispered, “You okay?” and kept holding my hand. She walked me outside and sat with me until I could breathe.
Then she said, “Happened to me once.
Pay it forward,” and left.
I never saw her again.

Story 8:
Flying home after Basic Training to spend Christmas with my family, I found out the flight was overbooked and there was only one seat left. The couple in front of me were debating which of them should take it.
The guy said, “You should take it, it’s your family.
I’ll catch a later flight.” Then the woman looked back, saw me, and asked where I was headed. I mentioned I was going home to see my pregnant wife and my family. She then told the woman at the counter that I should get the last seat.
It ended up being the last Christmas with my dad, and my whole family wasn’t devastated. © jackfaire / Reddit
