Nicest thing you did this week?

beks101

Yesterday, I baked a massive chocolate biscuit cake and brought it into work with paper plates and forks for everyone.

Probably the most lick-arsey thing I've done since I started the job but fcuk it, I am now the office hero.

What's the nicest thing you've done so far this week? Who did it benefit? On a scale of one to ten, how smug do you feel?

I um held a door open for someone

can I just have some of the cake now?

I helped about a dozen clueless erasmus students with finding accommodation in Galway after they missed out on the room I had listed. Admittedly I was just trying to avoid my thesis, but still, I'm great.

I try to be a right c.u.n.t for the most part of the week.

Gillo

Some random person asked me if I had change of a fiver for the bus, I just gave her the bus fare and politely told her to GTF when she tried handing me the fiver.
I'm a big believer in karma and try to be a nice guy so tend to do a decent enough random acts.

brevity

I didn't punch my co-workers & I bought my girlfriend flowers.

Pretty good week IMO

The Backwards Man

I did my neighbour's tax return for him and it came back today and he doesn't owe anything. For free.

If my accountant is reading this, I'm thinking of doing my own from now on ya big crook.

Fcuk I don't think I did anything

This mad one brought a cake into work the other day that tasted horrible. I complimented her on it though because I didn't want her to feel bad.

Sir Arthur Daley

Drew the turf home for a neighbour.

My boyfriend hurt his back, so I dropped over with painkillers, deep heat, dinner, books, cigarettes, and gave him a back massage. Usually I'm quite mean to him

fussyonion

Tolerated my sanctimonius mother-in-law and her simpering smiles. I even missed three shows I love because she was visiting.

There's no enthusiasm or feedback when I talk to her; she just sits there with a fixed smile on her face and she's so condascending.
The nice thing I did was not hit her. Or the drinks cabinet.

No good deed goes unpunished,........be warned!

Banjo String

Restored an old lads tractor.

The look on his face when I got her turning over was priceless tbh.


Didn't even feel guilty when he give me his cheque.



(i should add I was very cheap apparently) fair price, fair job.

You might not have agreed if you were the next user of the toilet, but to me it was really nice.

fuzzydunlop85

Gave some young lad who was loaded outside the bookies a fiver for a load of ****ty change that amounted to about 1.20 cent, then gave have him enough baccy for a few fags. I admired his honesty,'I'm not even gonna gamble with it I just want a bottle of cider!'. He also then asked me for the euro back for a bag of chips! Where the **** do ya get a bag of chips for a euro these days. Gave it to him and all,then seen walk round the corner to the other bookies down the road. Knew where it was going all along but feel sad for these people.

I gave a friend a heads up on a job opening that he'd be perfect for, even though I'm half considering applying for it myself.

Neither of us have all the required qualifications, but we'd be aiming at it from two very different backgrounds so I reckon it's fair game

Favours like that will always be remembered.

Shhhhh they're secrets. :)

Jaysus now I want a chocolate biscuit cake. I've never even had one but I want it more than anything now.

The nicest thing I did this week was that I thanked your post.

But then I realised that you didn't offer my any of the cake so I removed it.

Jesus I have some stories ....

Helped eject two oxygen thieving Spanish gypsies from my favourite local cafe after sitting through a 5 minute tirade of racist comments and intimidation directed at the Chinese owner. Wasn't going to get involved any more than verbally until one of the little ****s lit up, blew smoke in my face and asked me if I wanted to fight for looking at him. I obliged him.

I'm great friends with the breakfast lady in the dining hall where I work, and I gave her grandson advice on applying for a course he wants to do, introduced him to someone who could coach him with his application, and a bit of a tour. Lovely lad he was too, hope he's successful next year.

I scanned that wrongly at first, :eek: and was hoping that you and the friend to whom you gave (a) head(s up) didn't come to blow(s over that) job.

Holdonasecond, I just remembered one I'm always doing!

I left every public toilet I dealt with in better shape than when I came to it, some significantly so. I'm like some kind of creepy public toilet cleaning saint, they'll put murals of me up on the walls of every cubicle in NUIG when I'm gone, looking down at the (hopefully) clean bowls with a big proud smile on my face.

Echoing the frustrations of the locals here who rightly have no time for them either. They aren't regular Spanish, and in the last 6 months or so have really damaged a lot of property in the neighbourhood. Just as well I'm moving on soon.

Ah aren't ye all lovely, a pack of aul softies in here, who'd a thunk it.

Except Karl Stein.

I went for a massage. It only benefited me.

This wasn't a good week for doing nice things because I'm on my holipops so my interaction with people was more limited than usual!

I bought a friend a pressie though!

Also gave someone directions. Gave some tourists from engerland some ideas for their holipops.

That's all really

pharmaton

I too brought goodies to work, mostly though because I've finished the month training in that area and will be moved elsewhere come Monday. Chocs for the girls in office and gave the boss a gift too. I suppose its brown nosing but I'd rather leave on a high note, knowing I can ask for a reference and having some closure.

I was trying to figure out how you knew the tourists were also on their holihops

Went snorkelling yesterday on my day off.

All on my own.

Didn't bring my family with me to stand around for two hours watching a fat wetsuited man take photos of fish for his own enjoyment.

That's it I'm afraid.

I bet it was a delicious cake, it was certainly a thoughtful thing to do, and you're probably a lovely person.

Stray dog roaming the estate, was very friendly so brought out a bowl of food and water to her and she wolfed up both. Done a quick look on facebook and a woman had posted up that she was looking for her dog for 5 hours.
We PM her and within ten minutes her and one of her kids arrived, it turns out the dog was 13 years old and they had feared the old dog had gone off somewhere to die. It was a great scene to see people reunited with a dog that was genuinely one of their family, they both started crying when they saw the dog.
They dropped down a box of chocs the other day too!

That's a beautiful story
Now I have an important question.












What chocolates were they and is there a reason you're not sharing them?
