Proof that nice people really do exist
We've had a lot of problems with the heating system in our new house. In the last 2 weeks I've already had someone out 3 different times to try and figure out what the problem is.
Anyway, yesterday we had a guy out to look at some stuff and he found one of the problems that was unrelated to our original problem and gave me a quote on what it would cost to fix (which was well over $300.00). I set up an appointment and this morning he came back to do the work and not only took $70 off the initial estimate he gave me yesterday but also told me that he'd put in a good word for me to the HR Recruiter after I mentioned that I saw his company had an opening for an office person that I had just sent my resume over for.

It was just refreshing to meet someone nice. I have felt so alone being here without Steve and having to deal with all this house stuff on my own and have talked to so many rude people here in Madison that seem like they just want to get as much money out of me as they can, so it was nice to actually finally meet someone that was nice and it made my whole day.

It doesn't take a whole lot to put me in a better mood. Now I'm off to face the day and am hoping for good things.
