4. co-worker showed up with a whole tray of leftover byu brownies and fresh fruit

5. a really sweet lady sent us a package of chocolate covered macadamia nuts all the way from hawaii just for helping her fix a sticky situation with her tickets. all i did was do my job yet she was so thankful! who takes the thought and time to do that!? some people are so great!
