Asked if she had a scarf and she didn't, so I gave her mine, followed by another huge hug from her, was a really nice moment and will put a smile on my mug all day.

Offering someone a job, they accept then turn it down.

Then two days later interviewing someone new, who came recommended, and offering them the job and seeing the delight in their face and their enthusiasm to start

Having a conversation on the train with a small child about batman, superman and spiderman.

Train got delayed and the boy was getting worked up about something. I saw his Batman comic on the seat next to him so asked him who he though was better. Batman or Superman.

Seemed to stop him crying and was talking to him for about 15 mins, even other passengers joined in.

Probably the first time I have ever seen commuters join in on a conversation, especially something as random as that.

And before you started called me a peado or anything like that I asked his mum if she minded me talking to him
