Title: What is one good deed you did this past month?
Post by: 1swt2gs on Thu, 24 March 2016, 20:47:16
Prior to my last depressing and mischievous thread, I promised Rowdy my next thread would be more cheery and happy. My hopes is that this thread inspires other to go out and do a good deed (even something as small as complimenting someone else!)

So what is one good dead you did in this past month?

I sent an affirmation e-mail to someone in a customer service position today thanking them for their helpfulness and kindness. The person was really happy to get the e-mail and it happened to be on her birthday.

Edit: Here was her response

Quote
You are very welcome! I am so very happy you are pleased with my customer support service. You made my birthday by giving me positive feedback.
 
I hope my kindness will reach out to others. Thank you once again for the compliment. Have a yourself a great day and Happy Easter!

I called Scottish Power's customer service to ask where the **** is my final bill. In the beginning of the talk, I memorised the callee's name and thanked him personally in the end. That's the most I can do for a person from Glasgow.

Noticed about 3 stray cats roaming my backyard. Built them Tupperware homes and now feed them daily.

At work so I can't snag a photo. But the big giant rubber storage bins. Turn them upside down and cut a hole. Put a few soft towels in there to keep them comfy and out of the rain

adopted another cat 7 days ago. had to take her to emergency room last night....

Heartworms... Doctor said she wouldn't make it and I should put her down.

She rebounded and started puring when I came in to see her. I couldn't put her down. Took her home.

She is getting Tuna and belly rubs until it hits again =/

I am typically good with my emotions and cant remember when I last cried, but this damn cat...

Ahh, I know what you mean. When I read "Tupperware" I only thought of the little lunch container ones. Thought you had taped together a bunch of them or something.

I wish the best for you and your cat. They're excellent pets.  :(
