Inspiring moments of good sportsmanship.

[Nickhead]

since the op didn't state 'sports' as a pre-requisite, i had an encounter today, that i am proud of...

at work, we are doing major remodeling, and at the same time are short handed. the office furniture needed moving on friday, but there was no time. my boy and i volunteered to do a couple hours today (saturday) for cash in hand. the rate was 25/hour. after 2 1/2 hours work, we got paid and left.

it wasn't until about three hours later i actually counted the cash given (i wasn't going to be rude and count it back to my manager).

it was actually twice the rate of 50/hour. didn't set right with me.

so i just texted him about 20 minutes ago thanking him for such a rate, but told him if it was a mistake, i understood.

indeed, it was a mistake on his part. he is on some pain meds from a slip at work, and didn't realize what he did. i told him no worries, ill bring the excess cash to work on monday.

i joke about things, am sarcastic about things, but in the end, i want to sleep knowing i did the right thing.

and i know one day, when things may get tough for me, he will be in my corner if need be.
